The Official CBG

edit

CannonBallGuy (also known as just CBG) is a seventeen year old guy from Wales , UK. He is interested in web design, graphic design, open-source and he often plays BZFlag. CBG runs currently Mac OS X v10.3.9 and dislikes Microsoft Windows rather strongly. His browser of choice is Safari v1.3.2.

BZFlag

edit

BZFlag is an open-source OpenGL multiplayer 3D tank battle game, with development led by Tim Riker. CannonBallGuy participates in the GamesUnited League, the Ducati Style League and a 1on1 tournament. He is reasonably well known in the game but not necessarily for good reasons. He can be annoying and disruptive during matches. Some other players however, have found him to be a good friend and enjoy playing with and against him.

Web Design

edit

CBG first got interested in Web Design when he was 12 years old. He started by using a WYSIWYG editor. These days, when he has time, he hand-codes with HTML and CSS. He strives for standards compliant designs that are also visually appealing.

Graphic Design

edit

As a result of his interest in Web Design, CBG is also teaching himself to use Photoshop. He is (and others are) noticing improvements with every design and he is constantly attempting graphics contests at webmaster-talk.com.

Pages I have Edited/Created

edit

I am still kinda new to wikipedia and don't have the confidence to edit much, really.

  • So far I have edited:
    • BZFlag - Here I totally re-wrote the League section since it was really out of date and basically just plain wrong now.
    • This Page - Obviously....
  • So far I have created:
    • User:UBX/Dog owner - I felt that this was lacking... There is a "Cat Owner" UserBox template already.
