At
MXskinz, it started out with two people skinning like crazy, and
then as time went along, so many wonderful talented people have
contributed to the site to make it the variety that it is!
Here as a big thanks to each of them, MXskinz will feature a skinner
each month or so! Thanks so much to all of them!

Hobbies:
Oh so many. Nearly anything artistic. But my true loves are Graphic
Design and Writing. Working on my first Vampyr novel--Hopefully
it'll be finished before the next millennium. LOL
Do you have a favorite skin?: It's
really hard for me to have a favorite anything, really. Simply because
I am so eccentric and eclectic that everything changes to my moods.
But this is as close as a favorite can get; Transylvania for Window
Blinds.
How did you get interested in skinning?:
It's odd really. It was several years ago, I was going to make a
recipe book for my mother. I wanted her to have all her favorite,
secret recipes in a lovely book of her own. Thus I was playing around
in one of those programs loaded with clipart, you know where you
can make anything from cards, banners, to you name it. Well, I realized
I was spending a great deal of time making these things for her.
By the time I finished one recipe it almost look like a very professional
menu. However it wasn't good enough because I wanted to make my
own designs. I thought I could do better. So I went and bought my
first graphics programs, I think it was something from Micrografx
and Jasc's Paint Shop Pro. So I started to play with web graphics
and then moved to painted designs, and little by little kept moving
forward. Upon realizing that, though I couldn't draw for beans,
which I wished I could...somehow in a program I can make things!
Nice things! So I started doing wallpapers that some of you may
have used and digital art. Now I'm thinking of going back to college--after
all this time and doing a double major in English Literature and
of course Visual Communications hehe (Oh and mother's recipe book
has never been finished, poor dear.)
