I'm not new to chess, however I'm new to this website.
I'm not a veteran, I've been playing for nearly a year now. :3
I'm good with various forms of art, mainly computer artwork.
I use Paint.Net. It's nice and free software. ^_^
I'm a general forumer and I'll be hanging out here a lot now. : D
I couldn't find the rules here, anyone know where they're at? :/
