After five weeks of preparation, Paramount has become official. My name is Shivan and I started Paramount out of Atlanta, Ga. Better known as 404. :) Well, I'd like  to start with info about our senior staff.. The Senior Staff consists of Devine Styler, Insidious, and Shreifels.  Devine Styler was recently the president of a small ansi group in 404 named VOiD. He quit VOiD to join PMT, and he also brought a great coder named Watcher with him. Devine Styler is not only a great up and coming artist, but  he's also got coordinator skills. He's a valueable member of PMT, and I'm very glad to have him. Insidious is an old pal, and another great addition to  our team. Insidious has been a member with iCE, RELiC, and TRiBE. He helps with organization and anything else I need. I feel previlidged to have him as a member. You can also see me on #ansi thanks to Insidious. :) The final Senior Staffer is Shreifels. I've known him for 5 years, and can easily say that he is yet another great addition to PMT. He will be couriering the packs  to our HQs, and a few sites as well as organizing with me. Shreifels has also  sacrificed his phone bill for Paramount. I can't thank him enough... Now for our artists.. We've mixed some up and coming talent with some "old skool" guys for a great bunch of artists. I'd like to start with Amroth, that "old skool" artist from iCE. He quit the scene about 7 months ago, and decided to join PMT. He's one of my all time favorite artists. Not only does he draw great ansis, but he codes, he writes music, and he draw VGAs! He's unreal.. From iCE we got Shaggy, Toon Goon, Stone the Crow, and Elminster to join. I've known Shaggy and Elminster for a while and consider them some of the best artists that the scene has known. Not much can be said about Toon Goon or Stone the Crow. You all know and love their art, and they are considered some of the best out their. I'm glad all of these iCE guys are helping out and I hope that they stay in :).. Insidious is not only Senior Staff, but also an artist. Hopefully he'll release more stuff in the next pack.. That fuckin' game "magic" has got a hold on him.. :) Midget Farmer is another fine artist that Paramount has acquired. His fonts are really nice, and some of you may know him as the sysop of Acid Pool <404>. Shinobi came into PMT from Relic, he's still a member with Relic and hopefully he'll put out more in the packs to come. Invisible Anarchy joined and shows lots of talent with the two ansis of his in this pack. He's gonna be a great one! Paramount was lucky to get Nivenh, the author of Impulse BBS software. He should have more art in the next pack, and not much needs to be said about his coding abilities except for that he wrote a goddamn BBS software! :) AK is a 404 VGA man who is very talented, and should be one of our most steady artists. Expect to see art from AK in every PMT pack. Cid Vicious, who used to be in iCE VGA, joined but doesn't have any art in this pack, but there will be some of his VGAs in the next pack, for sure. Lastly, Phase II is a 404 VGA guy who has done way more than his fair share for Paramount. He's helped recruit, get sites, and organize. You should see him in SS or as a "coordinator" sometime in the near future. Lastly, I'd like to mention our coders. Our coders are Amroth, Nivenh, Stingray, and Watcher. Nothing is coded for this pack, but an application generator and a viewer are in the works for the next pack. Just to show the degree of coders, here is a little about each of our coders.. Amroth is writing a PC game, Nivenh wrote a BBS software, Stingray writes software for a living, and Watcher's setup is killer due to his coding skills.  These guys are really good, and we'll see some of their work by the time PMT-0295 comes out.. Now for some general info about Paramount.. :) 1) Paramount finally releases.. 2) Paramount is sponsoring Impulse, in that we are going to do most of the ansi side for Impulse.. 3) ParaNet should be setup sometime in January, and PMT is looking for someone who knows how to setup nets really well. 4) ParaView is in the works, and will be completed by PMT-0295.. 5) Paramount is constantly looking for new artists, and if you are tired of the same old bullshit, whether you be in ACiD, iCE, Shiver, Union, or a tiny local group outta .. We're interested.. Since our damn application generator isn't done, call The Morbid Mess Hall at 404-667-9673 and apply for the group there.. the nup is "overdrive"..
