User:Yami

Yami, living in South England, Dorset, Poole to be exact, Jonathan David Partridge, joined ZU on August 28th 2003, simply because he needed help on LTTP. During his newbie days, he felt as if he could do alot of things, as coming from a much smaller community, ZU was like a new school to him. But soon after, Yami soon to fit right in, like a piece of a puzzle. In his first few months, Yami started his first signature shop, and soon after became what people asume as the trend-inventing-mini-sigger. Well, not known of nowadays. Soon, after seeing his own arrogance in front of him, Yami became one of the core members of the ZU community and helped along the ways of many projects, like Pixel Paradise, the Signature Battles, and most recently the ZUWiki.

= Intro = Joining a few days after his 12th birthday, Yami posted his first thread here. Doomed to death, Yami posted his intro thread right here as well.

Soon after introducing himself, Yami headed to the Signature Shops section and started up what is known as the Signature Battles. Useful to some, and a pain in the ass to organise, yet the first battles never finished. Nor the second. Nor the elusive third that never took place.

= Graphics = Soon after opening his shop, Yami started making requests. Although lost in the internet, Yams may have his first ZU signature somewhere, and it may show up sometime. Rivaled by graphical giants such as Lioness, Mercutio, SearanoX and McCloud at the time, Yams didn't have much success. Although succeeding in some aspects, Yami quit the buisness to start comics. Sprite comics to be exact. Now Yami has a new shop, his third to be exact, named .reborn, after his return to ZU in 2005.

= Absences = Of course, Yam took a break from ZU. During 2004, Yami didn't have much time for ZU, and in late 2004-2005 Yami, took his second break, and progressed his gaming aspects instead. Arriving back in 2005, Yami has turned himself around, pumping out masses of new, fresh graphics, and marking the return of one of ZU's core members.

= Comics = Influenced by such comic websites like KeenSpace, and Fireball20xl, Yami wanted a crack at comics. Well, Sprite comics. His first comic was doomed from the start, Tales of the Unexpected: Megaman X Style!, simply because the title was too long. Spawning 13 comics, Yami started two other series. Ask Yami, and Metal Gear: Random. Ask Yami had some popularity, and had a few users asking questions. MGR had a total of 4 comics, and was just plain bad. Although Yami has plans to revive MGR, it is not 100% sure that he will.

= IRC = During his first year at ZU, November to be exact, Yami joined the IRC channel over on EFNet. After many hijinx, and laughter, Yami took a break for half a year, and then returned in 2004, and is still on IRC to this day. Now the channel has moved to the quieter Gnug.org, but it's still pretty noisy in there.

= Ok, anything else? = Yami is currently working on a website, Yami|Generation and a joint site between himself and uno, called Pixel Paradise. He is also working on this Wiki, and he is also designing graphics, and hopes to someday become some sort of professional graphics artist or designer.
