Hello everyone!

I've come to the forums because I enjoy mapping, and truly enjoy the portal series.

I don't have too many hours in the SDK/Authoring tools, so it's nice to know they're a place I can come for help.

Yo! Si, ablo no gato!

I dont really speak spanish, and i deffinatly don't speak cat

I just recently found this website, but I've loved portal for a long time, nice to meet u all!

'Allo all.

Introduction...intro...in..hm.

I'm here because I <3 Portal & Valve. Plus this place has a ton o' maps for me to wet my portal obsession with.

Program for a living among other nifty computery things. Alright, enough with the intro, time to down and test!

Hi!
I don't have a lot of experience with Hammer, but I think I've gotten the hang of it. At the moment, I'm here for the Summer Mapping Initiative, but maybe I'll stick around and put together a map pack sometime.

Sup,

Here to do some science.

That's about it.

Hey, here for the Summer Mapping Initiative!

Hey guys, I've been working with the Hammer Editor for some time with Counter-Strike mapping, and when I mean some time, I've got plenty of hours in the Goldsrc engine. Yep, so some of these newfangled 3D Skyboxes are a foreign concept for me. However, I also have experience with the UE3 engine, and all of the quirks of the Unreal Editor; I can say that I'm not quite outta sync over current developer trends.

your hello's here!

I strangely never gave an introduction here even though I've been around for a while.
So, on that note: Hi!

Never got this far, so umm.. hi. Currently in college for geme development. Been using hammer since 2008. I guess I don't have much to say about myself.

Hi.

Well, I am here because sometimes I need help with some problem and on this forum I always find a solution. Also I am here because of Mapping Contest

I'm here to map for the portals of the second though not in relation to time.

'Ello! This is the part where I introduce myself!

Long time mapper, here to map for Portal 2, got some BIG big stuff planned, including a full blown story with brand new characters.

But first, contest submission. Kinda botched, got mapper's block.

Hello =D

These two websites sum up what I do and what I like =P

I know an easy fix for "mappers-block". You just start experimenting til you come up with a neat idea. Then build upon it.

Hello I'm the Master Lagger, and I've been to this site for a few days and haven't properly introduced myself. My personal life is... meh. Who cares? I just like to mess around in Hammer. Only made one complete map in my life and it's in the Contest 2011 section (Revenge of the Angry Turrets). It's not a complex, long map but it's fun. (If you enjoy dodging bullets and blowing up turrets! ) But since I was under some time pressure I couldn't make the map I was hoping for. When I get to make a good map, you all will be the first to know.

Hello!
I downloaded some custom maps from here and I was planning to make some of my own, so I decided to join.

This is me, I make maps, I made a l4d2 survival map "Penultimate", and just recently released "Variation Susceptibility Test" as an entrant in the Summer Mapping Initiative.

I also needed three posts in order to use img tags. So thank you for that.

Hi Dylan!

Hi all.

Joined for the Summer Mapping Initiative. I've been racking up hours in the beta, so I thought I'd see how I do. Anyways, I've found the P2 Authoring Tools rather addicting, unlike the standard Source SDK. I guess its the assets, elements, and instances.
