I had sketchbooks upon sketchbooks filled, and I drew all over the sides of my papers in schools, and not paying attention in class. I had the dream like a…
Damn, 7 years ago. I was 18. I just graduated high school, moved to Minnesota. Started working with my 2 older brothers at a glass fabrication company called Viracon.

7 years ago. Hmmm.. I would have just graduated from High School. The closest thing to modding I was doing was making Doom maps and replacement textures and sprites. Made some Zelda themed stuff, as well as Mega Man, junk. Nothing of that time has survived other than 3 star wars themed textures made for the original Quake.…
exactly seven years ago to the day, i was swearing violently and kicking obscenely at anything that was nearby. The uni department server had just died, taking about a years worth of work with it - several people including myself lost everything except stuff we'd managed to backup on these wacky new "zip" disks. I know its…
Hurm...7 years ago...I think I had left Pillsbury at that point and was contracting to a company that was converting from Warp to NT or 95 or some other version of Winblows. A part of me died every time I installed it, until I became the bitter woman you have now. Living with my brother and 2 other roomates in a house,…

7 Years ago I was 16, and a Sophomore in High school. I had just downloaded a copy of Maya 2.0 in 3.3 mb chunks off of tripod free webpages on my 28.8 modem, but only at night mind you, we only had one line. I had already taught myself RayDream 3d in the 7th grade, but Maya was when I started to learn some basics about…
