   New To GameDev Forums (sort of)
  Hi GuysI joined this forum a while ago and I wanted to start being a more active member of the GameDev community. I am a member of other game related forums such as Game Career Guide and thought I'd branch out. :)I thought I'd tell you a little about myself- my dream goal is to become a Computer Game Designer and I am currently starting my second year studying a BA in Computer Games Design at the University of Wolverhampton in the UK. I currently am doing a few things in order to gain more experience/knowledge for when the time comes to apply for a job. I am going to start designing and making levels using the Unreal Tournament 2004 Editor (As UT3 won't work on my slow computer), I am also doing lots of design work- writing, sketching and I enjoy creating artwork too (Like character design etc). I have also learnt to create simple games in Macromedia Director, but am thinking about learning how to use Flash to start creating small games. I am also volunteering as a Quality Assurance Technician at a small Games Development company. I also read books on game design/writing.I guess that I would like to ask the question- does this sound like I am doing enough?Thanks for taking the time to read this and Thanks in advance for any replies.   
  Sounds like you're doing fine. Carry on!   ;  Hey, just wanted to say welcome to the forums. It sounds like you're on the right track. Have you considered writing articles for some of the game development related sites out there (like GameDev)? Along with your QA experience it could show that you have the ability to analyze and communicate your understanding of game design concepts. Even starting posts here in Game Design can be a good way of testing and improving your skills.Good luck!
