Hey all,
I'm Josh - and I'm only really posting this because the notice says I have to to gain full access to the boards. :P
I'm 16, an aspiring graphic hobbyist, and I suck at graphical art. I have a Wacom Bamboo Tablet and Pen, and I love it, but I suck at freehand. I use the GIMP, and I can do nearly anything on an amateur level with it. My recent past has been filled with amusing friends by sh00ping faces onto various items/significant people. I enjoy making logos from scratch, and one was even used by an up and coming video game retailer on his website.My logo fun has lead me to making custom Coca-Cola labels for my sodas and putting various recreated tuna cans in friends' pantries.
As fun as the GIMP and Bamboo have been, I have hit a dry spell. I am... bored. I have no requests, no projects (none gfx related anyway) and no muses or inspirations. I used Google to search for a graphics forum, and this site came up. After some quick browsing I decided this place was (hopefully) exactly what I was looking for.
I'm looking forward to getting to know you all, and to learning from your experience!
Josh
