The rookie

[Bladez]

I like long walks on the beach, candle light din....oh...wrong forum!

How you kids doin? Just stopping by to let you know that I exist. I'm a designer and manager of a digital print shop in Calgary, AB. Still fairly new to the game, so hopefully I'll pick up some tips and tricks around here and get some good ideas and feedback. Seems like "THE" place to be for just that.

Looking forward to being part of the gang.

Hullo. Glad you are existing over there in Calgary. What's AB? I know, I know, I could google it and make assumptions...

I think there might be more than 1 gang on here. So what are you? Red or Blue? :D

I try to stand out, so I'm more of a lime green with silver highlight and bells.
AB = Alberta (Canada)

There used to be tons...too bad the government built mountains and another province beside us in 1986. Now we're land locked.

Thanks for the links. I'll check 'em out and get more fimilar with this place.

There's a link in the "New User FAQ" thread called "can somebody please explain" that covers most of the bizarre inside jokes that you'll encounter here in the forum. That one's definitely worth a look!

[budafist]

Well there you go! I thought it AB was Alabama...oops! :D

[Craig B]

Welcome Bladez ... I didn't realize we were "THE" place to be ... I guess I'll be on better behavior.

[Craig B]

Speaking of AB and Alabama, and geographical confusion in general. I've been meaning to ask you Buda, where is OLD Zealand? Dang, I'm tired ...

[budafist]

Apparently there is a Zealand which was around long before New Zealand was discovered in the 1600's. It's the largest island in Denmark.

The name New Zealand originated with Dutch cartographers, who called the islands Nova Zeelandia, after the Dutch province of Zeeland.

[CkretAjint]

AL is Alabama...

[Red Kittie Kat]
