Hello Angelicamarie.
It seems like a good idea to welcome people collectively and I would certainly echo your remarks. However, I feel that it is still important to make sure people feel welcomed on a personal, one to one basis, as this is the essence of the sort of support that this site has to offer. I also agree with Xnine in encouraging new people to join in and look around the various sections of the site to see what interests them most. Personally, I do like browsing people's profiles to get a feel of who I am talking to and I get a lot of information from the 'collections' section.
Best wishes to you all.
Bill
