So I admit, I googled myself looking to see if a piece of artwork I had done was making the rounds and I found, to my surprise, that I actually had my own page on IMDb (the websource for answering all of those "who was the guy that played..." questions about movies and television): http://www.imdb.com/name/nm4251104/ That's actually one of my real credits, so it's actually me and not the jazz musician who seems to get all my press. Of particular interest to me was the notation at the bottom: "STARmeter: Down 42% in popularity this week. See why on IMDbPro" Now, I don't have IMDbPro so I can't find out why I've plummeted in this particular week... but that kind of hurts. I'd like to think that it's nothing personal though, and that I can make it up with some good P.R. work in the future. | |

anime.mangacool.net (10.0.255.1) using Apple Safari 5.0.5 on MacOS X (0 points) It's a trick to get you to subscribe to IMDB Pro. What did you do for Kinect Aventures? There wasn't much detail. | |

No idea who entered the game's full credits, but I'm practically rubbing elbows with George Clooney now. I won't forget the little people though. | |

Quote: What did you do for Kinect Aventures? There wasn't much detail.Heh. Thanks for that. You're right though, at least about my contribution... it was a very minor assignment comparatively. I designed a few icons and did a bunch of cartoony plant textures. | |

Hey, people see icons and plants more than most of the graphics (which has to be played through and explored). And the IMDB Pro warning about popularity is pretty standard to scare people into subscribing. | |

How about... I worked on "Kinnect Adventures" featuring voice actress Cara Pifko Who guest starred on NCIS starring Mark Harmon Who played a secret service agent on the West Wing written by Aaron Sorkin Who wrote A Few Good Men starring Kevin Bacon. | |

I still have my comcast accounts, but I only check them every now and then to empty them out. Try sending it to vizh310 at gmail dot com instead. | |

I did a search on you and came up with both your real address and those awesome pictures you desgined for a MMORPG (which I promptly saved to my hard-drive). I'm so going to cyber-stalk you now. Al B. | |

Naturally, that's what you get for being fake. |
