After a long period of time trying to ask around to figure this out, I've decided to start a thread about it. How did you find XD Designs? A link on another forum? Google? I'd love to hear about it

I started at proboards.com... Was interested in GFX so I decided to check out ProVision Templates since it was on Proboards homepage. I looked around there and saw Scorpians stuff and I got linked to Roddy Innovations. From there I saw XD's stuff so I came here and I liked it so much, I just kinda stayed. I have accounts at SSD, SI, RI, Provision, G101, Studio Zero, and of course here. But all my other places... With the exception of SI... I have under 10 posts because I don't like it there as much as here. So now you know. I havent told anybody this yet but XDD is what got me into GFX Designs. I download a photoshop trial the day I join ;D.

Well, I was (am still am) an Admin on a successful advertising forum. XD (when he was formerly known as GameStar), advertised his previous forum, a gaming one, called GameStar. I became a Mod there, I believe. AFter a while, he decided to make a new forum. I helped him come up with the name (I kept suggesting names, and after one of them I put the 'xD' smiley, so it went on from there =P). He moved GS here for a while, and promised the GS staff that he would make them staff on here of the GS boards. He never did , and he soon deleted the GS boards from the forum. So...yeah, that's my story =P.

Alright, here's my story. Before Game Star was even a Proboards,(MSN space ftw ) I knew about. I joined the Game Star Proboards when it started, stayed there awhile then when XD moved and changed his interests into graphics, I didn't follow. I knew XDD was here, but just never joined. Then of course I finally joined it. And here I am now XD also started me in graphics designing as well, even though it's more a thing out of boredom then to have fun

It started a long time ago for me and XD in a thing called Runescape. I can't remember the specifics about when we met, but it was a long time ago. He started a clan and I joined. We called it "The Death Seekers" lol. He later made a proboard for us clan members to talk and chat and plan etc... He had an MSN space before then, but I never got into that. He later made a forum called Game Star that ha Runescape boards on it. I joined that, and posted quite a bit on it. It went through a couple versions when XD got photoshop. Then came XD Designs. TGM decided he wanted to be in on the graphics game. I didn't follow him here for a while because there was nothing here for me then. Later, he tried to merge GSZ and XDD together so I came over here with my original name of crazydawg43, which was my Runescape name and GSZ alias then. I had quite a bit of fun in the general and GSZ boards. Later on, I decided to get into the graphics field with guidance from XD. A while later me and XD sort of... got into a feud because of how he acted towards me and some of my work, such as my pixel font, and I deleted my account after getting pissed. We later patched things up, and I made this current account. 6 Months later and here I am.

I actually had about 531. Add that to my current post count and it's about how many posts I've made on XDD.

I used to go to another skinning forum, but got so tired of them always being in maintenance mode. I just started looking through the links at the bottom of that page, and here I am. Seems like the people here try to help and thats a plus for any one who is new to anything! Thanks for allowing me as a member. ;D

Thanks for allowing me as a member. ;D Yes, I always seem to find that annoying myself when forums are always in Maintenance Mode. XD Designs has only been in Maintenance Mode one time outside of the one day closings before a new version, and that was when I was in a very bad mood about something. Even that didn't last more then a few hours. And yes, we always are willing to help. And XDD isn't really an exclusive club, we even let Brian Silver in.

And XDD isn't really an exclusive club, we even let Brian Silver in. ;D Wow we just pick 'em off the streets these days dont we.

Huh. That's odd. I thought I had already posted on this thread... Deja Vu or something I guess. Idk. Anyway, XD e-mailed me out of the blue to remind me he was still alive and so a little while later I heard him mention his forum site again so I decided to join to keep in contact with some old friends. Crazydawg too. I didn't leave ya out. Well, that's the short version of it right there. I would've sworn I've posted this before though...Odd.

[q] such as my pixel font,[/q]
Danm pixel fonts, always getting between people. They are secretly planning on getting us all mad at each other, so they can take us out while we're weak!
Uh, I go to XD's school and I was on Gamestar. He made XDD, and I think I joined after a few weeks.

I found XD Designs on another forum using a template from here. There was a banner link that said "Skin created by XD Designs" or something and I clicked and joined.
