Pierced and Painted for your Pleasure

About Me

I am a 25 year old male studying BSc in Computer Game Technology with Computer Animation at Paisley University.
I am a highly motivated and driven person in everything I do and I like to think of myself as a bit of a problem solver.
I am also a complete geek in every sense of the word and a very active gamer! However, I do enjoy an active social life!
I am an rock/emo kid trapped in an indie kids body! Sadly though I am not cool enough to fit into either category =*( I'm just normal...
If you see me out and about in Glasgow feel free to come over and say hello and ill do the rest of the talking :P" Most likely in Microplay, Firewater, Solid rock Cafe, Cathouse, Garage or Guru
Also, if your a girl with red or pink hair... I apoligise for drooling, i have a red/pink hair fetish apparently =O"

My life motto is:- 'Worrying is like a rocking chair. It gives you something to do but doesn't get you anywhere.'- Stolen from Van Wilder (Awesome Film)

I am heavily into art, animation, photography and anything creative!


Most of my recent life has been chronicled through pictures! Just check out my blogs or see most of them through my online Flickr photo album.


I also love to write and have written various short stories and even a screenplay. However, none of my work has ever been shown to anyone... yet!
In the past I have also written for game sites such as www.Gamergod.com and tested games for www.Absolutequality.com!

My dream is to own an Entertainment company. Promoting/Producing/Writing/Developing everything from Music to Film to Games.
My company is now live, Kane Digital Design and Photography, KaD².
Please show your support by adding my business profile and placing a banner on your profile! Thanks


As for my gaming...
My new clan is more of a group of friends. However, we are in a few TWL competitions.
Scottish Cretins Urban Militia is the name we go by under the tags =SCUM=. If you see us join up I suggest you find a new server!
Previous clans have included:-
Myth of Soma - Revelation, Tartan Army
Star Wars: Galaxies - Gamos
CS 1.6 - Acrobats
CSS - PurePwnage


I am a proud member of Scotlands biggest LAN community! Boasting over 400 members. Located in Falkirk, Scotland. If you are a gamer, live in Scotland there is no excuse not to be a part of this amazing, unique crowd of gamers and friends alike!

Ninja rules:-
1. Ninja don't sweat.
2. Bullets can't kill a ninja.

6. Ninja can breath underwater anytime they want.
7. Ninja can change clothes in less than 1 second.
8. Ninja don't smoke, but they do use smoke bombs.

10. Ninja invented the internet.
11. Ninja don't eat or drink very much, and they never have to go to the bathroom.
12. Ninja always move to America when making a new start as a non-assassin.
13. Ninja don't play sports. Unless killing is a sport.
14. Ninja can crush golfballs with 2 fingers, any two fingers.
15. Ninja have a bad temper when they lose at anything. They will usually cut off the winners head before they have time to gloat.
16. Ninja lie all the time. Even when the truth serves better, ninja will lie anyway.
17. Ninja swords are always straight with a square handle guard. Always. Curves are for girls.

Love Rock/Emo/Indie but I also enjoy my share of cheesy dancing and RnB nights out =D"

The whole music industry fascinates me and I would love to break into it in some area.
It looks like it will be in photography but I am still keeping an eye open for maybe some PR sorta stuff

Note to bands on Myspace:-

I will listen and if I do not like I will deny you. This is nothing personal.
I just like to keep bands on my page that I would actually listen to their music occasionally!
