It's because of the time he has been on the forum :) if you are here for 1 hour and you made 1 posts you will see 24 posts a day ;) if he made 10 posts he will have 240 posts a day :)

But people please stay on topic.

And i got into gfx by making stuff for neopets and being always already intrested into art :)

Same as Frank (Thrasher), because of neopets :P
Someone gave me a link to a forum (for Neo cheats), I saw the gfx section there, tried some things out on photoshop and got addicted :D

For an extremely long time, I was a n00b at the IFSZ, and I requested 3 sigs every week (would have been more if that 3 per week rule wasn't intact) and I was just thinking to myself, how awesome would it be to make stuff just as awesome as that? So yeah, I think I let my parents know, and later on I got Photoshop 4.0! But that version seriously sucks. I used it for 4 months, and you seriously couldn't do anything in it. No brushes, or anything else. It was like an advanced version of Paint. But later, in September of '05. Shortly after my birthday, my dad installed Photoshop CS. ^_^ And I've been using it ever since.

If you are talking about all kinds of GFX, I learned because of neopets' guilds and userlookups, petpages and shops...and that was when I was 8 i think or 7, but I got into sigs because of a neo cheat site that is the only cheat site I got active in and everything, so thats my story :)

Sigs looked cool. Thought I'd try to make one and I improved from there.

what got me into gfx was a friend of mine who said he was getting into gfx and was quite good at it (he was def novice back then xD) and that got me into it and then I kept practicing and still am ^_^

Well, I joined 3vo just for the neopets cheats, but then I stuck around once the cheats weren't given out for free anymore :)

That was back when Frank and Becca were the GFX Leaders, and I thought their's and zone's work was simply amazing, so I got my a version of photoshop and went from there :)

Me, I joined 3vo to be honest, because at that time I was looking for cheat sites, I found several, like SlopDog, NeoCodex, Chemysis and lastly 3vo...Im not active on the other forums, except 3vo, because I got flamed at SlopDog, Chemysis didnt welcome me too much, people at neocodex always made me feel out of place", i mean they never introduce themselves or make you fell welcome or even appreciate your presence, then I came to 3vo, my last stop...at 3vo I learned that it was not all about the neopets stuffs, it can be about GFX or Programming and more, from then on, I kept joining forums (pokes GFXJunk) wherein I stay not because of a desire, but a place to make friends and enjoy :)

A clan mate of mine in a game called Red Faction made me a sig and I kept bothering him asking how he made it. He finally made a tut which I couldn't understand at the time. So he directed me to gfx forums. So after a while(about 2 weeks. lol.) I got better than him. He was like.. WTFUX?!! And I was like :DDD. So yeah, there it is. Story of my addiction.
