    Hey, well then, this is the second time I've done this .. my old nickname was RobbieB which I have abandoned seens as I now prefer to be called Bob and other stuff like that and the fact that vB does not offer a feature to change nicknames.

    Well, I am a 14 year old guy .. but, I amn't what you would call a typical teenage guy .. at least not the typical teenage guy as portrayed in American teen movies. I guess all this will be explained in greater detail through my latest project which some of you may have heard/know of 'Nescience.org'.

    I won't bother using this post as a promo for Nescience as there will be plenty of that later

    I have been using PC's since I as 7 or 8, I started off on my Mom's 386 laptop running Windows 3.1 .. man I loved Chips Challenge Anyways, I really started discovering PC's and the Internet around Christmas 1997 when I got for Christmas what was then considered a 'briliant' PC, it was a PII 233Mhz, 4 GB Hard Drive, 64 MB Ram running Windows 95 .. I thought I was tha man back then .. that PC is still sitting downstairs waiting to be turned into a Firewall when, and if, I ever get ADSL.

    My current PC is a self-built 850Mhz Athlon Thunderbird, 128MB Ram, 20 GB Hard drive, 16x DVD, 12*8*32 CD-Rw, 17" Monitor, nVidia TNT2 M64 32Mb graphics card .. which sucks.

    I am big into web development using languages such as PHP and Perl, using mySQL for database functions and data storage. I love creating graphics in Photoshop 6 and designing sites using EditPlus 2. I keep saying I am going to learn Flash but I never get around to it.

    In 'real life' I like sports such as soccer, football (nfl), rugby and ice hockey. I played soccer and rugby up until a year ago when a busted knee forced me to stop.

    I love music of all kinds but these days the band that gets played most on my stereo and PC is 'Blink 182' .. they rock! I guess my favourite genre of music right now is Punk, but I also listen to rap, rock, metal, trance, dance and loads more.

    I am currently in the process of joining a band called 'Freek 1512' .. by 'in the process of' I mean I just got myself a job so I could pay for the drums I will be playing in the band

    Another thing I love is comedy / humour / making people laugh .. I am known as the jokester in my class and stuff and I love nothing more than making people laugh either by cracking a good one liner, making a fool of someone or even making a fool of myself all for the sake of comedy

    Anyways, thats about all you will be finding out about me right now .. be happy :)

    Welcome, Bob. :)

    Btw, I can easily do a rename for your account you just can't do it by yourself. You should have contacted me about it!

    Alien, in case you hadn't guessed yet, which I guess you have, its RobbieB again .. and after leaving you in the dark about whether I was or would be doing a design for you for so long I didn't really want to contact you asking you to change me username. I know its pretty easy in vB to change a username, but, I would rather stick with this account if you don't mind .. thanks :)

    Hey everybody :) :)

    p.s look, no more tiny font :)

    well dermo is a lot better than just Diarmuid(yes, I know that none of you will be able to pronounce it right)

    and it's also a lot better than my other nicknames
