I think that is because facebook started to realize that people aren't really named "Shauna YoBabbyDaddyAintGotShtOnMe BetchzNhaterz"
McTaggart:
What if your name really is weird? Will somebody please think of the (celebrity) children!?

Hey that name has been passed down in the family for generations.
Barmymoo:
Why the hell should Facebook decide what we're called anyway? It seems kind of sinister to me that some computer programmer somewhere is passing judgment on people's names.
I'm about to go home! For a whole week! For the first time in six weeks! Actually I haven't been home for a whole week since early December! I am excite! (When I say home I mean England - I will be in three different homes in seven days.)
Jimor:
Since it's buried up in the Creativity sub-forum, I thought I'd whine here about the fact that the contest judges at genero.tv rejected my entry for the Duran Duran official music video contest. Even though IMO, it was better than my entry for Royksopp last month that made it as a finalist.
Go see it here. Yes that means you have to listen to a Duran Duran song, but there's a pretty girl (a former co-worker), and a pretty darn neat special effect inside if I do say so myself.
Anyway, I'll keep giving it a shot, since whatever the results, the effort has made me a better filmmaker and editor, and I really want to get into music video production. I'll be seeking out local artists to work within the coming months as well.
At school, the TV/film department is offering a 3-day, 1-unit "class" that is basically a field trip down to Hollywood with behind the scenes access to various TV and movie production facilities. That should be fun and enlightening.
EDIT: VVV @Slick: Thanks. That pretty much coincides with my own views on what the weaknesses are. I'm usually much better in building a story, but I only had one day to shoot everything I needed on my own. I'm glad you liked the effect, though, it was something that popped into my mind whole the night before the shoot, and I still have no idea where it came from, I just knew exactly what I needed to do to make it work with what I had.
It still stings, but hasn't discouraged me. I'm more of "Well, I'll show you next time!" kind of person, and with the next contest, I'll start working much earlier to have time to do it all right.
