About Me
I guess I should at least explain my age and career path for those who are curious or wondering who it is they are having administrate a wikia they edit.

I'm currently 17(18 on May 1st), and still living in British Columbia, Canada. I've been programing, teaching myself various languages for over 3 years now. I started with BASIC and QBASIC, learned a bit of HTML markup and Javascript. I learned how to structure a basic game with the help of GameMaker's GML. Later on I got into PHP and SQL. After PHP I got into Java and did fairly well with the language. I extended much of my knowledge with HTML and XHTML and before XHTML learned CSS. I've also worked with XML firstly parsing it with PHP but also styling it with XSLT. And I've used the pretty simple syntax for RSS. Administrating wikia here also showed me a bit of python for using with the pywikipediabot framework.

My main career focus is in Game Design. Happily since I'm just near getting out of High School I've gotten into the Art Institute of Vancouver's Visual and Game Programming course.

''My work is based on interest. The more people use something and are interested by it, the more I focus my attention there. If you like my work; comment on it, and if you want to see me make more edits, make a small edit on one of the wikia I administrate, and I'll probably look over the edit, then do what I can to make the article edited even better than before.''
