Hey all, just found out about the site from some random Wikipedia browsing (such a waste of my time, but still...). Glad to see a decent community here.

Chris is the name - TheChrisD's my handle, XBL Gamertag, and pretty much name anywhere on the web. Been diagnosed with AS for about 3 years now. Handy to have a "label" that most of the family understands. At least it means I'm no longer treated like a "bad kid".

Live in Ireland, and in college right now studying computers. Life is good, especially when the college's disability service are really helpful

I also have my own site, which I sometimes get a little obsessed over designing...
You can see it here if you want.

Hope to be around the forums a bit - all depends on how busy I am on other forums, and whether I'm gaming or not

Welcome TheChrisD,

Nice site, not over designed at all - you should put a link to it in your footer.

The web world map was interesting. It's a re-badged map of Ultima (I think).

I see you're into the Sims... I was thinking of getting one to see what it's like - any recommendations?

Start off the the base Sims 2 game, and if you like it, add on the expansions to increase the playability, is what I'd suggest!
