My First StorTrooper since 1998

Before the advent of blogs, much less virtual worlds, where people could reinvent and express their identity, there was StorTroopers a place where people could create their own portable alter-ego.

In 1998, while I was editor of a small webzine called "OJR" the Online Journalism Review, I came across what I thought was the Coolest Meme Evah: StorTroopers! It didn't seem have much to do with journalism, but my officemates and I still had great fun creating and passing around our new looks. After numerous incarnations of emails gone by, my original StorTrooper is not to be found. But, the site for you to create one still exists. It's the brain-child of one Alice Taylor, proprietor of the must-read gaming blog Wonderlandblog, who is, as ever, ahead of the curve. Thanks for creating this Alice!
