Happy Birthday KillaGraphix

How fast time flies when you\'re surrounded by a great bunch of friends. While I realize it is actually GraphixGround\'s first birthday, and while we may now be KillaNet Technology Ltd., at heart we are still GraphixGround, with the original mission statement and goals still in place.

While we may have branched off on our own with the closing of TCN, I have remained friends with err0r, and it\'s nice to know we can still poke fun at each other despite all of the other events going on around us. By the way err0r, the term is waterbroom, not mop.

The past year has seen us grow from a site with one forum to a full Network with a myriad of sites and projects. While some of these are still hidden from public view as they are developed, they will be revealed over the coming weeks. We took an idea and a philosophy and have continued to develop them. Not too long ago we celebrated our first contract for pay which ner0 and Vulture have been working on and are nearing completion of. We are seeing more opportunities open up for us in the way of professional designing, coding and programming; it is truly amazing what such a diverse group of talented, creative people living around the globe can do when they work together.

It has not been an easy year for us; we have seen some staff leave, and others join us. We\'ve had our servers attacked, destroyed, and we\'ve moved a few times as well. We\'ve gone through adversity, animosity, small disagreements and a few big disagreements as well. We have gone through growing pains and adjusted to new situations, yet through it all we have stuck together like the creative crew we are.

It is through our support of one another and our underlying friendships that we have made it to this, our first anniversary. I would like to say how proud I am of the various KillaNet Crews: our designers, site scripters, programmers, gamers, forum & chat staff, the rest of our Administration team, and of course teh server g0d, NightStorm who has seen us through every step of our first year\'s journey. It amazes me sometimes that he has any sanity left at all. Actually, anyone watching the staff in chat would wonder if any of us are sane-which probably led to one of the slogans we sometimes use: Lacking Sanity.

Thank you to us3rX for the Anniversary banner, it\'s awesome. (if you don\'t see it, hard refresh your browser once or twice to clear your cache.) I also would like to thank our members for helping us grow, sharing their work and experiences on the forum and in chat. As we bring our first year to a close, I look forward to many more years of learning, sharing and \"Creative Inspiration\" at KillaNet Technology.

Happy Birthday Everyone!

[b][i][color=\"gray\"][font=\"tahoma\"]Having been with KillaNet from the very start (and GraphixGround aswell) i have watched this place grow, and i can see it continuing to grow in the future. Although i have been here from the start, there were a few months there where i was left without any internet access, i left it as GraphixGround at the start, and i returned still with open arms to KillaNet and KillaGraphix.

Happy Birthday KillaNet, and congratulations/thankyou to all the Staff that have made this place great, and also a big thankyou to all the members, as without our members, we still would not be where we are today.

I say this calls for another celebration...

I joined GraphixGround around about the same time I got my domain (frozenplague.net) in april. I can't remember who gave me the address or what made me come here in the first place, but I have enjoyed it ever since.

Happy first birthday GraphixGround!

Happy Birthday everyone; Ada, as per usual, summed up everything. Its great to know we still have a strong based community full of memebers that are willing to help us grow and continue to grow. As an apple ipod sticker would say \"Ne volez pas le musique\" http://www.killanet.net/forum3/public/style_emoticons//smile.gif\' class=\'bbc_emoticon\' alt=\':)\' /> And FYI the Lacking Sanity quote sometimes used, was yes infact, mine!
