New Here? Introduce Yourself!

I'm pretty much brand spanking new to Steampunk, having only started looking into it a few weeks back. One thing I've got to say is that I love the range of skills people have, their creativity, and most of all, Steampunker's willingness to help others with advice or tips on how to develop their skills in all sorts of areas.

My name is Melissa I'm 19, but everyone calls me Ghost,so please call me Ghost,thank you kindly. I collect oddities: wet specimens, old medical devices,old things to do with death like emalbing jars, taxidermy, bones and the list goes on. I fell in love with Steampunk after coming across a photo of a women in the clothes online when I was 7. I always, even as a kind, dressed odd and strange. Today I have more punk/Steampunk style-well more casual steam.I don't want to clog this form up so If...

Just a quick Hi, the wife and I went to comic con the other week and were blown away by the steampunk people there, looks like a great idea so here I am, hoping to get ideas and inspiration and who knows might even make some new friends. I'm working on my hat and have some ideas for a gun, the wife is into anything craft like so hopefully we can make some respectable steampunk stuff, soooo many ideas sooo little time.

My wife and I are just starting down the unique path of steampunk interest and enthusiasm. Two of my friends have also picked up an interest since we've begun; all of us liking the concept, but watching it from a distance since it's beginnings. It changed for us when at a rennaissance faire we discovered how cheaply one can do steampunk by talking with several people that were in such garb. We are from Northwest Ohio. I'm not sure if there are any other steampunkers in our area, but if anyone...

Or Hello for the Uninitiated.

My mom is a stained glass/jewelry artist who recently started making steampunk-inspired jewelry. She's made about 100 pieces so far, and would love to hear from you if you like her work, or would like to own some.

Hey guys! I stumbled across this site about a week ago or so in search of tutorials and inspirational DIY photos, and have found myself browsing through more than what I expected to be looking at. I've been into steampunk for as long as I can remember, but have never delved into it for myself. But now I feel I have the itch and the skill to satisfy that itch. I look forward to talking with many of you in the near future, and even more so about the information I have been gathering to put to use...

Hello! My name is Asellus, but I generally go by Ace for short. I'm really new to the Steampunk scene, so I'm sorry if I get anything wrong.

Good evening, people! I'm not particularly new around these parts of the internet, but I've mostly been lurking around these forums without an account.

21-year old guy here and I've been into steampunk things for now quite some time. I'm going to buy in near future some stuff for myself : ), Have a good day!

Just wanted to pop in and say 'lo all. I am basically a SP newb, just getting started.

I am known to many regular (and any number of irregular) steampunks, due to my work as an entertainer, MC-ess & panelist at steampunk & comic cons across North America. (And some of those panels have been with Austin Sirkin Himself!)

My name is Cassi. Many people call me Sprite (Like a fairy) because I am smaller than my group of friends. (Ok, I am not THAT short at 5'3" but to the rest of them I am)

I'm here entirely by accident, but it looks kinda cool.

I've always been interested in the idea of Steampunk and have liked seeing the creations of other Steampunks but have never really created anything myself. I hope this world will be a place where I can learn to start and if I do feel I get good enough to help others I will start contributing whenever I think of an idea. but until then Ill attempt to post links to things I find interesting. I think one of the things that made me interested in Steampunk was the engineering in my family, which...
