Epic Introduction Thread
Quote from mebe on March 3, 2014, 6:39 amHello!
With something approaching 4500 maps in my workshop directory (and an extremely borked queue - takes about 30 mins before new downloaded maps will appear) and currently on page ~360 in the top rated of all time list I thought I'd sign up. I tend to skip anything too turret infested and look for logic puzzles.
I haven't yet made a map (mainly because I don't think I could be as creative as I'd like to be) but I appreciate the efforts of people here who do, many of them are on my favourites list.

I'm some loser dude that's slowly becoming more and more frustrated with PTI. Downloaded hammer, made the best cube-shaped room ever, and hoping to make actual tests soon. I'm pretty stupid though, so don't expect much yet.
Hope there's no tests that I have to solve to become a worthy enough mapper

Quote from Arkham on April 13, 2014, 6:29 amHey folks !
I'm fan of the Portal series since the first episode and i've been interested in the mapping/modding for a long time.
I now have some spare time to learn how to use Hammer and I'm working on my first maps on the PTI puzzlemaker, and modifying it with Hammer.
I've been reading your stuffs for a few months and now I might have some questions to ask and some WIP to show. Hope you'll like it
Keep testing !

Quote from Nuirangi on April 14, 2014, 11:07 amHello Thinking With Portals Community,
I'm not sure how many times I completed Portal 1 & 2. Very often at least.
I made one map. One single map on which have been working 100+ hours.
Starting with PeTi and now ending with Hammer it has been redesigned a lot.
I joined the community to publish the finished map in a few day and collect some feedbacks.
As a big fan of the Portal series I'm also open for everything else this site has to offer.No idea who much I'm going to involve myself into this community.
Looking forward to find out...

I enjoy playing video games, my favorite video games are Portal, Portal 2, Team Fortress 2, Audiosurf and the Half-Life series. I am quite interested in level design.
I enjoy listening to electronic music genres such as Hardstyle, Hardcore, Trance, Hands Up and a lot of other electronic music genres. I also enjoy listening to Classical music, New-age music and solo piano music. I am a music producer although I am still inexperienced at it.
I am a huge fan of anime!

Quote from Lunch on September 2, 2014, 3:08 pmHi hi. I'm in Toronto, Ontario, Canada. In addition to the Portal games, I love TF2 and an indie game called Defense Grid, and I'm usually playing at least one MMO. I spent a lot of time with Hammer a few years back when I was trying to make maps for TF2, but I always messed it up and gave up before completing one. I started using the PTI a month or so ago, and that inspired me to get back into Hammer. I've spent about 60 hours on my first Portal 2 map in Hammer, and it's going pretty well (thanks to the help of people here). I hope to finish it this week.
In addition to gaming and modding, I make music ( https://soundcloud.com/helloron ) and I write ( http://instantsomething.com/ ), and I spend a lot of time working in theatre (acting, directing, and stage managing).

Quote from SlashSgt on September 2, 2015, 11:51 amHey everyone,
Long time coming, but since registration is finally back, I have now been able to make an account so I can contribute to the forums!
I've been modding for a while, source engine as well as some COD WAW stuff and Minecraft, though only really done Portal 2 in the past years. I'm really into graphic design, so if texturing needs to be done, I'm your guy.
Anyways, a sample of my work has been posted in the The ThinkingWithPortals Map Showcasing Thread
already, but here it is again:http://i1093.photobucket.com/albums/i43 ... xglbyf.png
