Interesting, though yeah, it probably wasn't the best thing to ask on my part because it's difficult to get an opinion out of someone who hasn't experienced the change yet.
Anyways have fun in Pokecommunity. I'm relatively a newcomer as well so I hope we get along well together, as I'm going down the game development route as well. Though I'm more oriented in programming rather than graphics and design, I hope to explore the latter soon.
