I was in search of icons after getting windows 7. My intention was to customize the appearance. Some nice icons I found on google, and those linked to this place. Thus I discovered this place.
Within an hour of browsing, I thought I may get some help for my virtual XP installation, so I joined and asked the question.
Please dont ask the rest
What happened with my question.
Im gonna bite...........what happened?
Ok, I'll bite too. What happened next??????
My story is pretty mundane.
I joined Vista Forums a few years ago when I was getting a laptop for the first time, and simultaneously was upgrading from XP to Vista. Although I had used a PC for many years and was very familiar with XP, I needed all the help I could get trying to decide which laptop to buy, and also to learn as much as possible about Vista. So I started with another forum that has a huge section devoted to helping members make the best decisions about which laptop to buy --- and I kept noticing references to Vista Forums. And once I joined Vista Forums, the road to Window Seven Forums was easy.

I typed " Windows Vista tips and tricks" in Google and it got me to Vista Forums
For few days, I only looked at Shawn's great tutorials and later, started helping people out there. When SF started, I didn't join for some time thinking I'd join when I'll run Windows 7. Then I downloaded a leaked Windows 7 ( yeah, in those times we were crazy looking for leaked builds) and joined SF. Today, I can proudly say that I'm one of the oldest member here ( member # 370) and it feels great to be a part of this community. :)
