Alright, so I've been lurking Polycount for a while now and finally decided to start posting. There have actually been a few threads that I just thought about jumping in and replying to, but posting on a forum without first introducing myself just doesn't feel right. Maybe it's just me?
Anyways, I'm 22 and attending the Art Institute of Pittsburgh. I'm in my second year of Game Design, and my skills are not quite where I'd like them to be in 3DS Max (Or hell, artistically at all). I'm working on a full conversion UT mod with faculty and students of AIP called Cinder, and I believe there are quite a few others that are working on this mod that frequent these forums as well.
So yeah, Hello polycount! Now I can finally post in these threads without feeling like that guy who lurks near your conversations, waiting for you to say something that he can relate to because he thinks you're a cool person and wants to be your friend.

If you are studying Game Design, is it a big deal that your art skills aren't that great currently? Isn't that why games have artists? Or maybe your getting an art degree?
and Sean, I'm Corey...
Are you ever NOT on Polycount? Haha.
