I have finally, after 3 years of school and 6 months of job hunting, landed a job at Digital Extremes up in London, Ontario as an Environment Artist / World Builder.

I just wanted to thank all of you guys in the community here at PC who have ever given me advice, comments or critiques, because I truly believe that without you, I never would have risen to the level i'm at today.

I owe extra special thanks to Spug, Geezus, and Frozan for being my mentors through school and during my job hunt. Thank you guys so much!



Long Live Polycount!
