Greetings, friendly denizens of the Obsidian Portal. How's everyone doing?
So, I've been with the Portal for a bit over a year and I'm just now discovering the wonders of the OP forums/community by the suggestion of my personal friend and DM, Duskreign. Though this is only my first post, I already want to say thank you to the users of the forum here. Between Mike's help and reading through posts on the forums I've learned a metric buttload of extremely useful knowledge, from DMing tips/ideas to help with coding and making my personal page on OP look all fancy-like. So... Yeah... Thank you, OP community! Many kudos to you! Haha.
Now I suppose I'll write a bit about myself...
My name is Vincent and I'm a 23-year-old that was born, raised, and still resides in New York. I'm a musician, an artist, and a hardcore gamer. I've been playing/DMing D&D for about five years now. In the most recent two years I've played with Mr. Mike Scott (Duskreign) as my DM. Mike once told me a quote that I play/DM by and, subsequently, apply to life itself. "Never let the rules get in the way of a good idea." Words of wisdom, indeed. Regarding art, I've been drawing/making graphics for most of my life. Musically, I'm an East Coast rapper, a rock singer/screamer, a lyricist/writer, and a producer. I've been making music since I was about ten-years-old. I'm in a band (hip hop, infused with rock) with my cousin and a mutual friend of ours. We're currently working on our first album.
If you happen look at my OP profile, you'll see the brand new campaign setting that I'm working on. In the coming weeks I'll be adding all of the content to the pages and prettying it all up so just don't be put off if you check it out right now and there isn't much content on it. It'll all be on there quite soon. I'll also be running the first campaign of my original campaign setting in the very near future. I'm currently creating the world and all of it's content, doing all the artwork, AND producing an original soundtrack for my campaign. I've got a lot of work ahead of me but I can't wait to see the finished results and share them with my group/players and the rest of the Obsidian Portal community!
Sooo... Yeah... Nice to meet you, everyone! Haha.

Also, "here's a link to Vin's campaign site,":http://www.obsidianportal.com/campaigns/geneseed in case anyone's interested. He doesn't know how to use Textile yet, and he's an HTML newb. But, weren't we all, once upon a time?
By the by, Vin, you should be thanking Arsheesh for the inspiration of your (and my) campaign banner. When I helped you with it, I was using the ideas I got from him. See? These guys are already helping you out!
At any rate, glad to know you SHINezo. I'll be watching your new campaign with interest.
Cheers,

Thanks again, Arsheesh. I'm glad you like it. I worked pretty hard on my banner. I wasn't sure of the exact dimensions so, at first, it was a bit small. Our good friend Duskreign resized it and did the coding/linking for me. Much kudos to you again for the help, Mike. 'Tis a pleasure, Sir Arsheesh.
