Hey,

Last week I discovered through my own reading that I must have Aspergers, at least to some extent. I am 22yrs old now and what can I say, I am not suprised by this discovery but I am glad to have found some explanation for the sometimes odd traits and fascinations. I am not offended in the slightest by it and in fact without it I would not have achieved as much as I have so far in my life without it.

I live in Adelaide, South Australia. My current fascination revolves around ridiculously overpowered and modified cars, especially my black Toyota Supra :) My job is creating 2d/3d art content for all sorts of games (XB360 mainly), and also some short film and TV ads. I am a very creative person by nature so I like to draw a lot and enjoy my photography.

I believe I am a generally well rounded person and work on developing myself nearly everday, going to gym a couple times a week is great and helps my feeling of wellbeing a lot.

Anyway's enough rambling, it's great that this community exists and I think it will be an excellent resource for me in future :)

If you are also from Australia, feel free to pm me or whatever.

Haha cheers guys. Conformadore your username cracked me up something fierce :D You may have heard another one "Commonwhore" which is quite good too.

Mannum, place of boats, rivers and playing board games till you either pass out from drinking too much or utter boredom of the board games. I had to rescue my ex girlfriend from there once because she had a tiff with her best friend lol. I'm making the place sound bad though, excuse me Lucas.

Hey Dude,

I'm a fellow Aussie Aspie from Sydney! What Xbox360 games have you worked on? I'm studying to be a film director so perhaps we'll get to work together someday?
