Hey guys!

I'm Dan, I'm 19 and from the North West of the UK. I'm sort of phasing myself back into online stuff after a hiatus but I've been doing graphics for so long now, I think it's about four years but I've still got so much more to learn. I've recently stated coding doHTML and starting a little bit of skinning. Slow progress but I'm getting there!

I love Harry Potter, Game of Thrones, Lord of the Rings, reading in general. I listen to all sorts of music, all time favourites being Paramore, Beyonce, Florence + The Machine, Story of the Year and more recently lots of Jessie J, Emeli Sande, Lana Del Ray and lots more.

I've been around a lot on the rp scene, so most of my work is really orientated towards that and more for practical use than aesthetic or design purposes though I'm hoping to change that a little.

Well, I'm pretty shitty at writing these, so I apologise for the vagueness!

Yey, welcome, Dan. (: I also roleplay and love making doHTML templates and skins. (: Though mostly the doHTML because they can be done quicker, lol. You know, a lot of roleplayers actually make better graphics because they usually think about a story with it, or something more than just pretty pictures and colouring or what not. Not that graphics oriented people don't think about that, but writers really always do. (: Your set is very lovely, though, so you clearly have some great designing skills. =D We have tutoring sign-ups right now, though, if you were interested? I'm clearly telling everyone right now, lol. But yes, there are different levels so you'd be with people around your level and also, people from all different graphics skills sign up, so it's definitely not just for beginners. (: Click here. <3

But other than that, I hope you'll just have fun here, whether it be in the challenges, or resources, or even writing? We do have a spot where you can post some of your best roleplay posts if you want. (: Anyway, I hope you'll enjoy it here and if you have any questions, just ask. (: <3

I'm always social Cal! :P

Hi Iris! Thank you very much for coming and saying hello! (: I'll check out your gallery too, absolutely love your sig!

Hey Nell! YAYYY, FELLOW BRIT! :3 I'm from Manchester, well like two miles north of Manchester but whatever, haha.Where abouts are you? :)

Hey Eliza! Thanks so much for the comments, I do try to think of a story and sometimes work that into blends and such but my blending is something I'm trying to work on and better as at the minute it can be very hit and miss. Might try to focus on a telling a story in my next one actually! :D We should roleplay sometime, hit me up! I'll defo check out the tutor sign ups whenever I can, I'm a bit hit and miss online at the moment though so really want to improve that before I commit to anything. :)

Hi Dan! I'm Sabrina. (:
I don't know much about coding/skinning, so I'll skip on to your likes. :3 I also like HP, Lord of the Rings, reading and such.
Like E said, if your stuff is related to RPing, your themes/story behind them will be fabulous. I may not RP, but I strive for a story in each of my pieces, and adore when others have the same well thought out story line as well. (:

Hiya Dan! My name is Isa. It's awesome you're getting into coding. I really enjoy it. Perhaps even more than making graphics, though I only ever code when it's for an RP site of mine. /shameful xD Making sites is actually how I got into graphics as well. Though, when I first started out it was fan sites not RPs, and I was using the default photo editing program that had come with my computer. Needless to say, the results weren't stellar. lmao But I've moved on to Photoshop and I like to think I've improved since coming to Shadowplay. It's definitely a great place to expand your graphic skills at (your current set is so gorgeous btw!).

Harry Potter, Game of Thrones, Lord of the Rings, and reading in general are all awesome. Though I've admittedly only seen the show version of Game of Thrones (I'm reading the first book now), and I sadly wasn't able to get through the LOTR books, so I'll only ever know the movie versions. Hopefully they were accurate. I also love Paramore and Florence + The Machine. I like Story of the Year, though haven't heard enough songs by them to determine whether I love 'em yet or not. It's pretty much the same with Beyonce. And the others you listed I shamefully haven't heard of. >.<

Anyways, I think I've rambled on enough, so welcome to Shadowplay! If you have any questions, never hesitate to ask. (:
