Wow. . . looks like i'm about the newest noob there can be around here.

Started programming games (like snake etc) on a graphical calculator when I was 16 or 17 about 10 years ago. Before then I'd hardly ever had any experience with computers at all.

From 17-23 I became expert at QB, then VBA and VB6. Was exposed to a variety of languages at university doing a BSc in comp sci.

Someone (very kindly!) introduced me to blitz2d about 5 years ago.

The past 5 years I've been doing mostly web programming with ASP, VB6, VB.NET, Java, Javascript etc, but I have remained a loyal hobbyist with Blitz3d ever since and dream of one day completing an actual *finished* computer game! LOL :O)
