How did you come up with your alias ?
Image came about after getting Tee-Shirts of a Software house called Imageworks. I opened an amiga bbs call "imageWorks" and Used the handle Image
The Undertaker came about after deciding to change handles after the bust and re-open the bbs under the name "The Graveyard" so "The Undertaker" seemed pretty apt. Plus WWF was popular at the time :)
