Stopping by after a very very long absence

Hey HB Games! It's been a while. If any of you know me, you'll know me by "rep" or "vampire clay aiken" (when an admin went around swapping all our names for giggles). I was an active member for the RMXP community between 2003-2008, then came college...

I came back for a brief stint in 2010 but that was less than a month (Sorry it didn't last long). I was here at the start of rmxp.net, and was here for most of the rmxp.org phase. I was a 7th sense member and created a bunch of incredibly sub par sprites for everyone (sorry). My photobucket is still up so I'll toss in a spoiler with some of the highlights of my career. Most of this is incredibly crappy but feel free to use it, I'm aware of how hard it is to come by resources nowadays:

These will go from oldest to newest, so the best stuff will be at the bottom (though I must warn you, best doesn't mean good :p )













I'm sure I've got tons more but i'll have to search through my old drives, I'd be happy to share since resources are always needed in the community.

Anyways I'm back, maybe for a month, maybe indefinitely? I was working on a minecraft texture pack for my server (http://www.cuberealm.com) and used some RMXP textures when I got all nostalgic and dusted off my account.

I'm a professional UI/UX Designer now and I likely owe a lot of it to this community (I now freelance for Riot Games/Imgur & Reddit! :D). I'm still spriting and I know I learned most of those techniques here. I'm happy HBGames is still around and hope it's not going anywhere any time soon!

It's cool to hear that someone from this community is having a great career after disappearing!

I'm trying to get my brother to take up UI/UX designing so he's stop complaining about games not wanting to hire generic artists. Got any tips?
 

Thank you for viewing
