hello talrik
Welcome to LD4all. There is so much information and personal experience gathered together on this forum, you will enjoy learning more. 
As for the avatars … there is a large variety of forum ones. But most members find (or make) a suitable one and use an hosting site like imageshack or photobucket.
Hi there, everyone! Lucho here! A couple of days ago, I began my “oneiric journey”, as I call it (viaje onírico in Spanish, since I’m Argentine). I found LD4all and I’ve been enthusiastically reading all the guides and stuff. It’s going to be great not to be alone in my oniric journey/training! 
Regarding my personal LD story, I had my first lucid dreams as a kid and I never ever got them out of my mind (I had two, actually, as far as I can remember). Later on, as a teenager, I learnt about the idea of lucid dreams through a friend, but always disregarded the possibility of actually training that skill (let me tell you, I found it kind of creepy, only because of ignorance). Now, as a 21-year-old guy, I’m ready to start my training!
Last Sunday, I finally began a dream journal and I started training my dream-remembering skills. So far, I’ve been remembering my dreams every night (4 dreams last night!!), and I had a small instance of lucidity last Monday. So, I’m very excited, as you can imagine!
Nice to meet you, LD4all community!

Hola everyone, I’ve been lingering on this site for quite sometime and have decided to join the fun. My interest in LD came to me after watching the movie “Waking Life” about 5 years ago. I was 18 at the time (now 23) and I began practicing RC’s like it was my job. Luckily I was able to obtain lucidity once from this and had a nice 15 second dream of me leaping from the ground onto the roof of a building (such an awesome feeling). After that LD I struggled obtaining lucidity and gave up. Recently I went to see the movie “Inception” and it has completely sucked me back into the world of lucid dreaming. There’s so much more info on the internet now about LD then there was 5 years ago, and I’m so glad my research brought me to this forum. After reading up on flying techniques in one of the posts I realized that I’ve had more lucid dreams than I thought (when I was younger I would swim into the air and be able to get great height but I just always shrugged it off as a regular dream).
Good to be here fellow dreamers
Welcome to the forums, homervb!
It’s always good to hear from newer members. Makes me remember when I first started…all full of motivation and excitement and such. Well, I’m still that way now, but you get the idea. 
I hope you can find some helpful things in this community and participate in some of the discussions. Good luck with your dreaming, mate.
Hello, I’m Tony.
I just yesterday found out about LD, and I’ve always wanted this, I just never knew: A. It was possible B: Anyone could do it, and C:It actually had a name.
I tried WILD yesterday, rather excitedly, and got to the HI stage, when I got lost as of what to do. I read that I’m supposed to focus on these images, is this right?
Thank you, I appreciate it 
I feel like I’ve found my 2nd home lol
hello Lucho, homervb and Unseen_Eye 
welcome to the forum
I read everything when I first joined too 
That’s great 
i think it helps when you definitely know you are able to LD through having had some lucidity in the past. 
A dream is defined as lucid by being aware it’s a dream while dreaming. So it all depends on what you are thinking at the time and not by actions. BTW different incarnations of LD4all has been on the net for 14 years. The History of LD4all

Lucidity Centerstage will be a source of other films and media to inspire you in your lucid quest.
That must have been an awesome surprise
WILD - An user friendly tutorial is a good explanation of what to expect and do during this stage.
I hope you all enjoy your time spent on LD4all 
Hi!
Im new, and i am fascinated with lucid dreaming. I really want to learn how to do this, but i am currently trying to remember my dreams. It’s only been one day, and I have only remembered like, less than 1 second of my dream. Good start I guess 
It would be amazing if I learned how to do remember my dreams, and become lucid in them. To me it would be life changing, not sure about anything else. I would look forward to sleeping every night, and wake up happy every morning.
So yeah, i’m new and hi 
Welcome Haitheer to the LD4all community!
DR comes easily with dedication, and practice. Often, just staying in bed and trying to think what you were doing just before, you can recall plenty of dreams you’ve had during the night! And then it’s just a matter of filling the details in your DJ
Well, life-changing is sure a good description enough 
you could start writing down all the adventures you’d want to have inside a dream! It’s very good inspiration for LD’s
Best of wishes for you
