Hey ho folks, how's tricks? I just sent off an application to join the clan, never done anything like this before, I'm a poor boy from a dead end town so never had any internet access till I was at college!

Anyway, I'm Paul Lawson, 25, from the North East of sunny England. We're called Geordies and have the sexiest accent in England (apparently!). I'm a graphic designer, currently head of design at a magazine called Envy! It's a woman's mag, not really my cup of tea, but it's a job right? I love Halo, and bore my poor friends to death with it, and Halo 3 is the first time I got online with any game. I'm not the greatest player, but I play fair, and that's enough for me. Currently shooting up the ranks after discovering you had to play ranked games to boost skill (dumbass)! My brain moves so fast I stumble sometimes, and it got me the annoying nickname 'Media God' from my smart-assed friends, as I jump from reference to link to similarity to quote and back again through all forms of media. I'm like one of those savant folks who know everything but can't tie their shoelaces. Thank god for velcro, I say.

But I digress. I listen to any music that's fast, loud, melodic or just wierd (dragonforce, anyone?), I hate cheaters, bad design (your site is nice, well done!), rap/hip-hop, and rich people who pretend to be poor just to get street cred (so the entire british music industry then). My preffered drink is a scotch and threat, but bourbon, gin or mead will also do nicely. And finally, I do anything to help anyone out, it's in my working class blood. So yeah, that's me, feel free to pop by for breakfast, I'll smoke us up some kippers! Till next time, listen to Robocop and "Stay out of trouble".

Welcome to the forums man. So you're from England. I know only one person that's in the clan that's from England but it would be cool to have another. Anyway, see you on the forums and if you ever want to plan online then hit me up on my gamertag: OcR Savage.

Welcome to the site. Most of what you said went over my head but I am really diging it. After reading what you wrote I am beginning to think that you belong in Clockwork Orange.

Aha! Good day, sir!

I'll have a smoked kipper, thank you kindly. Don't mind this American lot, they wouldn't know a Red Dwarf if it bit them on the arse. I'm the aforementioned Other Brit (26, Cambridge, pleased to meet you even if you are a Geordie ;) )

Enjoy your stay!

I'm touched by your warm welcomes people! Now, to answer a few questions: My gamertag is Mr Lawson backwards, been my email and msn for years, and it's kinda stuck. It gets pronounced different everywhere, Noss-wall, Noz-wall, Nosse-val, I like how it changes. Take your pick really, me mates just say Noss or N. Makes no odds to me. Nice to meet you Gimp, I'll let the geordie crack slide, you are, after all, a dirty southerner, hahaha! I'm gonna knock something designy up for me signature bar thing like Rhino, Gimp, iLL and ROCKETR, just as soon as I get a few minutes spare from the mag. Was in the office till 10 last night, havin withdrawls from the beautiful game! What's the spec for one of those signatures? I'm all about print, web is a bit new to me. sizes, dpi? Anyway, I'm feelin the love here, might go see what the crack is in the other forums. Hit me any bat-time, any bat-channel for any bat-thing I can help you with.

OcR is good crack... we're mad fer crack! I've sent a FR your way (or will have done by the time you read this, I hope) but I won't be onLive until the weekend but I'll look out for you then :)

For a sig, about 72 dpi is normal but on the web it doesn't really matter... it's all about the pixels, up to about 555 pixels wide for a sig on these forums.

Catcha later :)

Yeah, Gimp pretty much hit the nail on the head with those specs. I usually try to keep it about 450 px x 150 px.
