Welcome aboard.

You came, you saw, but you didn't conquer?

:whisper: I'm serious - "vini" is Latin for "wines"; the quote "I came, I saw, I conquered" is "veni, vidi, vici"...
Best wishes,
Hans

OK, sorry.

My Latin is not up to scratch.

Even though I'm married to a Latin American.

Could have been "vini vidi vidi" - I drank wine, I saw double. :)

Just to set the record straight, in these days of shortcuts and all.
My name Is Vincent ViDillia (vini vidi) I do use vici as part of my email name, vinividi.vici, so I thought Vini Vidi was as good as any. :yep:
Can I change it to vini,vidi,vici?

Hi,

Vini Vidi is a fine username, but if you'd really prefer Vini Vidi Vici, we can do that (you can't change it yourself).
Best wishes,
Hans

Yeah, I agree wid youse, Hans! Somehow, my instinctive New Yawk roots told me "something" about the real name behind the userid.

Welcome "Vinnie"... :fanfare:
