My recommendation is for "Jeepney".
Twice since I've been a member of this site he has specifically gone out of his way to help me, (without being asked). On my first ever forum post I goofed up and didn't attach the armor photo I was discussing, (pretty embarrassing). Jeepney went out to the MSN site, saw that I had the photo there, and posted it to my forum post for me. This helped me out, and any folks who read the post, as it was rather meaningless without the photo.
About a month ago I ran into Jeepney during a Mess Hall chat session. He remembered helping me out and proceeded to give me a step be step walk through on posting photos to the Armorama forum. What more can you ask for, an active modeler who freely shares information to help others.

I would like to see Faust and Yodaman nominated. Faust's series of updates on his sniper diorama is truly inspiring and Yodaman deserves user of the month for meeting that girl at the weding. WAY TO GO YODA! Who says modelers are all nerds??

I'd like to nominate dmd and ek, my chat room buddies.
They're great to talk with about models but, even better, they've given me some interesting insite to world events from a different perspective. I've met other good people to talk to but since I'm limited to 2, these guys get my first nod.
Thanks guys!

To get back to the spirit and intent of the UOM Nominations - I'd like to submit Tin-Can and YodaMan.
Both of them have always and consistently added value and support to the entire site - not just a single aspect or genre or project. Tin-Can's efforts are behind the scenes, and don't call attention to the fruits of his labors. YodaMan's efforts are in front of the scenes, and though you know he loves Sci-Fi - he's seen regularly everywhere unabashedly tossing in for the good of all.
They might not be the most prolific of posters nor the focal point of a bunch of modeling projects and campaigns - but you know when they're around, and when they're not - always.

I would like to second Bryan (Tin_Can) for this honor. His help has been invaluable in getting photos and news items posted to the site. And he still finds time to post!
Also I would like to nominate Toni.
Cheers,
Jim

I'll throw my ring in the hat for PlasticBattle and Pak40 - both are constant posters, have good knowledge of the hobby, and contribute in mutliple areas....
Has either Envar or RoadKill been nominated yet? If not, someone needs to nominate them both as well! It's hard to chose only two people each month... especially when there are about 50-60 who are all deserving!

With that in mind......I'll nominate roadkill, and the highly popular and neglected Armoured Sprue aka Beto, aka Paulo. There are so many worthy possiblilities, I'm kinda fillin in the gaps.......TC (tin can or top cat as you prefer) KF MacGee, Pak 40, SS-74, Arthur, Penny, Envar, ek, vlady, ..........The list is endless, a sign of the positive input engendered on this site.
