I reckon it *could be done, just not anything like the way it has been attempted. There needs to be something concrete before all the pretty art gets added, one or a few people just need to get a basic prototype up and running which could easily have varied art hung onto it- but pages of documentation and reams of concept…

Like most I've had to reinstall my copy of windows several times, often with a different…
Well its been roughly a year since I set foot onto these forums and I think it`s time to come back and get to work. Last time I was on here I put up a `student` portfolio and was pretty reamed out over how sporadic and quality overall of the piece. After some time off to re-evaluate what I want to do, and this will…
