About me Hi I'm Samuel ,graphic designer. I was born 21.04.1989. I live and work in Birmingham, UK. I started to show interest in design over 6 years now. i got my first computer back in 1998 (windows 98 then upgraded to Windows 98SE then to ME (bad choice) i then moved onto my first laptop (hp pavilion xp 889mhz 256 ram (upgraded to 512) then i had my first home build pc (500gb hhd, 1.2ghz 2gb ram) then i got my rist mac (g4 silver double door, 889 9summit like that ) mhz 1gb ram 80 gb hhd) then i got my first server (2.4ghz, 2 gb ram, 4x 80 gb hard drives 1x500gb (from old pc)) he is called bob and sits under my bed on allday running windows 2003 + 4 vitual machines ( lamp server) (mail server) (free bsd) and (windows 2003/backup/testing) im now on a macbook 13" (2.4ghz 2gb ram 120gb hdd) my uncle has realy got me into computers as a young kid, there was allways/(still is) pcs lying around

In between I learned a lot all by myself, and some help of my dear friends (thank you guys). With web design i started to mess around 4 years ago. When started I didn't know a thing. Now I discovered a whole new world for me. Everything I learned about web, I learned by myself. This is the area I really enjoy working, not just some parts of developing a site, but the whole process. Today I have much greater knowlege and I'm still eager to learn more and more and more and...... While discovering the web I also learned a lot of multimedia development, so it is one more thing on my list of what I do. Besides that, I'm showing more and more interest in programming, especially in Actionscript. I designed my first site back in 2004. Since then I have worked on a number of projects. I am proficient in Adobe Photoshop, Adobe Flash, Adobe Dreamweaver, and a variety of other graphic programs and applications.
