Re: The Who-What-Where-When-Why & How Thread
 

K'Lyn,
You called M'Lady? Thank you! My birthday has been great. Well, funny you should ask about my profile pic, I was changing it when you paged. The original pic is of me, about 1 year old, kissing my Father's picture, ( He was in Viet Nam.) which my Mother hung at my level. I posted it on Veteran's day, it was a little shout out to him. Now there's a pic of my Grandfather and me, 1977. See blog.
Now for a question...
Bg38...Have you ever considered going into business for yourself? you seem like a hard worker.

OOps, my user name..A Valkyrie is a Scandinavian mythical goddess who brings slain warriors to Valhalla. I am part Swedish on my Father's side. The artist in my original avatar gave me permission to use it himself!

thanks valkyrie. i've always wanted to open my own place. :biggrin:
But there's always been one minor stumbling block... money to get started.
I've began several times on my own, but something has always came up that interrupted me, and i would have to stop and rely on working for someone else.
I'm hoping if i keep pushing, something will give and i'll finally get out on my own :thumbsup:
now, my next question is for.. er... um... er... lets seeee... :thinking:

cjm!!yay!!
cjm. How many animals do you have, and what kinds?

Re: The Who-What-Where-When-Why & How Thread
 

Thanks Ben. Well the number is always changing. I have one dog, Lincoln, an inside cat, Colie, which she is pg. And for the outside cats, I'm thinking give me a minute........6 grown ones, one may be pg and one just had a litter a little while back (4 sieamese (sp) and one solid black.) The grown cats names are, for the boys, Screwball, Nineball, Oddball and Highball, same litter, for the girls, which are kind of wild, Aj and Wildone. Aj is the one with the new litter, Wildone might be pg. Oh and I have to mention IKE aka the greek. Dog. He died last year, he was only 4, don't know why he died but I miss him something terrible.

My question goes to Rbud. 2 degrees in what? And have you planted any bulbs yet???

Oops forgot, we have 3 fish tanks. Spotted gold fish, subunkans, spelling really wrong on that name, a few fantailed guppies and one red fin shark. I think that is all, well maybe a few mice but Colie is pretty good at keeping them under control. Oh forgot some more. A bunch of Koi in our two fishing ponds. Around 100. Some getting full sized, 3'. Okay that should be it. Unless you want to know about the stay cats that come around to have fun with my girls.

Hi rbud :wave: And thanks for asking :hug3

No special significance other than the fact that I love the sound of a well-played guitar. And I like the colors you see, plus the flaming sort of effect. So those pictures were perfect for me :biggrin:

I don't actually play guitar. Not yet anyway. I own 2 guitars, one electric and one acoustic and am sort of learning, but I have a long way to go before I can play like some of my favorite guitarists. Unfortunately I don't have enough time atm to sit down and practice for hours, but hope to make some time in the next few months for that :biggrin:

I hope that answers your question :)

Off to think of a question to ask someone. I'll edit this post in a few minutes...

OK, my question goes to jobstijding (I can't believe I was able to type that) :lol9:

Hi Job :wave: I know you from another forum and just noticed you have an account here too, but there's nothing on your profile and your last visit was a while ago. Can you tell us a bit about yourself? And, what made you join Nordinho?

Re: The Who-What-Where-When-Why & How Thread
 

Hi Muzz (and all other Nordinho people),

I once made a profile here, cause I was terribly stuck at a level of OddPawn. I hoped to find some help here, which I got!

Well, I'm Jobstijding a.k.a. McFly (thanks to you!)I'm parttime housedad and parttime social worker. I play drums in brown feather sparrow. I love music and movies. I am moderator for the oddpawnforum and also design and test levels for the game, which is GREAT!

I hope this answers your question!

Re: The Who-What-Where-When-Why & How Thread
 

Yes, that answers the question. Thank you :)

Would you mind asking someone a question? :biggrin:

Re: The Who-What-Where-When-Why & How Thread
 

well, actually...

I have a question for you Muzzy! (don't know if it's allowed to ask back, but who cares...)

Why are you called Muzzy? I know it's not your real name, so why Muzzy?

McFly

Re: The Who-What-Where-When-Why & How Thread
 

No problem on asking back :)

And what makes you think that's not my real name? :winky: Actually I think I have explained this in this thread before, but here it goes in a nutshell. When I was going to create my first email account (it was a big deal to me, I was 11 and had just gotten an Internet connection, hahaha) everything I tried was already taken. So I started looking around my room looking for some inspiration and I came up with Muzzy from a set of videos made for small kids to learn English (Follow Muzzy). I thought at some point someone else might use it and wanted to make sure my nickname would be unique so I added the 64 from Nintendo 64, which I was addicted to. So there, that's why I am muzzy.

Now need to ask someone else...

Ah! :idea: The question is for bg38. Ben, we know you're working on a couple of games and you're into 3D and animation. How did this start? How did you get into it and how did you come up with the idea of making these games?

Re: The Who-What-Where-When-Why & How Thread
 

well, I've always loved animation, starting back before grade school , when i'd make flip books with my notebook pages, and text books :rotfl:
I got into 3d work a couple of years ago, when I got online and found some freeware programs that I toyed with. Also got into image manipulating, sound and video editing, etc.. the full gambit. I'm always teaching myself coding and stuff. Can't afford real teaching, so I take what I can get :tongue:


i'm also a big video game fan as well, and once i learned a little on 3d modeling, i went to the next level and started making 3d animations, then got into game making using my pc and a ton of free ware. i'm always searching for better, faster ways of game production.

As for the ideas, I just let them come to me really. If i sit down and try to think of something, i can't, for the life of me. so i usually just mess around here and there and out of the blue, inspiration hits me and off I go :biggrin:

ok. give me a few minutes to think of a question.. ( :doubt: thanks muzzy!! :rotfl: )

this is for miskinscap :biggrin:
if you don't mind, is there a meaning behind your screen name? i won't ask your real one, just want to know about your screen name :biggrin:
