UberGeek's Signature

I kept running out of space in my signature, since I have several games released and in Playtest. I had a lot of links and about 4 lines of text, which was a bit overwhelming.
So I created this webpage which contains more detailed information about what I'm currently up to. I'm going to try to keep it current, so check back often!
Sorry it isn't anything fancy, but my web design skills aren't that great.
Now I can free up valuable space in my signature for things like inspirational quotes from Dilbert. ;-)

Main Website - UberGeekGames.com - Now updated to work in IE, and with 90% less programmer art! (yes, I did the background image using an XNA app and Photoshop)
Blog - UberGeekGames.com/Blog - not a "true" blog as it's a heavily modified version of the main website, but it gets the job done. Now with RSS and Atom feeds.
Twitter - twitter.com/ubergeekgames - I promise to keep it to the good stuff and not bore you with what I had for dinner!

For Developers
AvatarWrapper (latest version: 2.2 release) - this is a wrapper component I wrote for the new XNA 3.1 Avatars. It greatly simplifies the creation of Avatar based games by providing an easy to use API for controlling Avatars, adding custom animations, and rendering them on the PC. Now includes the skeleton rigs that somehow got left out in the 2.1 release.
AvatarDistributionComponent - this was hacked together from Jon Watte's HighscoreComponent to prove a theory. By adding the component to your project and sending a SignedInGamer's Avatar to it, it will create network sessions in the background and exchange AvatarDescriptions with whoever happens to be playing at the same time. I still haven't come up with any ideas for how it would be useful in an actual game, but it is pretty cool!
ScrollBar Component - TG Viking's ScrollBar, but refactored into its own class for ease of use.
EasyRotation - 3D Rotation simplified!
Sales Data Converter - Think the My Business page could do with some extra features? Copy and paste its content here, or load the raw CSV files to automatically get daily details such as profit, conversion rate, and much more!

Thanks for reading this. See you on the forums!
