Background
I've been coding ever since I was given a ZX81 back in 1982. I've used Sinclairs, BBCs, Commodore AMIGAs and finally IBM PCs. I tinkered with Sinclair BASIC, AMOS, DevPac C, QBasic, C/C++, VB, Perl, Java and Python.
I love coding graphical stuff and after discovering the joys of Mode 13h shortly after starting coding on the PC, I've never looked back.
I'm currently playing with OpenGL and looking to do some development on Linux.

Projects
AMBER - An OpenGL Battletech environment.
CBFG - A bitmap font generator.
glSandbox - A tool for playing with OpenGL blending and alpha functions.
Lots of little tools and toys which will probably never see the light of day.

Current Languages
C & C++
Visual Basic
Just starting Java
