Seems like a lot of people have been giving their personal names out here lately.

And the latter two seem to be both called "James"...

coincidence?

I think not.

[Ceridran]

Has to be a coincidence. James is one of those common names, like oh let's see maybe ALL THE NAMES or something like that

Hi, James and other James!

[khelonian]

Hello, I'm Khelonian (Although "Khel" alone would suffice, it is up to you). I am an associate of ColdFusion, and currently am going to college to get a degree in Video Game Programming. When he introduced me to the various projects that have or still might be taking place here, I thought it be an awesome start to get some experience in the field through modding...even if I have no prior experience. Hopefully with his help, as well as that of the community's, I can be a positive contributor.

My experience lies mainly in the C++ language and with Game Maker and a bit of Unity, but originally I actually wanted to be a Game Designer. Of course I can't draw for anything's worth, unless poorly drawn stick figures are an accepted currency, but I am at least told that I have a decent talent at being creative. Overall Point: I can help with programming or ideas, or at the very least try to help

Even if I change Majors (Currrently looking at a program for an Associate's in Exotic Animal Management and Training) I hope to still be helpful. Also I'm a fan of chelonians, the over-arcing/umbrella term for turtles and tortoises, so that is partially where my name comes from!

It is actually an accepted currency, at least in my book. Never the less, welcome to the community. More people to make awesome mods are always welcomed.

[Shinryu]

Greetings everyone. My name is Shinryu, otherwise known as "Shinryuu82" on YouTube (although some people tend to refer to me by a shortened version of this name - "Shin").

In any case, I've been intrigued by the Mega Man series for quite some time (Mega Man 4 was actually one of the first games I ever played). While my attachment to the whole franchise is pretty strong, I never really took the time to look around the community much. Granted, there were a few forums I used to visit a while back, though a majority of them are long since gone by now. I figured it was about time to venture out further and meet others in the wide fan-base and communities centered around all this, among other general topics as well.

As for a bit of other detail about myself, I generally post playthrough videos of various Mega Man-related games on YouTube. Considering I don't like to use my mic (mostly because my voice would sound like sandpaper on your ears), I do all of my commentary through annotations to present information and opinions on these various works. I also noticed that a few of my playthroughs were embedded on these forums as example links in a fan-game archive topic (which was another reason that propelled me to further check these forums out). In relation to that, I don't know how I ignored 8-bit Deathmatch for so long, but I was probably missing out on quite a bit until I heard about the update involving the Mega Man & Bass chapter. I've actually been thinking about getting back into customizing/editing sprites for potential use with the game itself, even if it amounts to extras and downloads. I'm currently reading through the various tutorials in regards to custom content creation for the game. As helpful as they are, I'm not sure if I would be capable of doing anything super technical with the engine - but I do want to try to make some mock-ups of player sprites suitable for the engine (mostly going off of other various MM fan-games currently, to which I'm sure some may have already beaten me to the punch on). I'm not sure as to which section of the board these would go in (simply because they'd be sprite-based ideas for usage), but I'm guessing the most logical place would be the "Resources" thread in the Projects board.

Other than that, I don't have too much else to say. I hope to have a fun and interesting time in meeting you all!
