Life
Edd Gould was born on October 28, 1988, in Isleworth, England to Mother Sue Gould.[2] He has a sister named Vicky and a brother named George.
Edd met Matt Hargreaves in primary school.[3] The two were both bullied, but they loved drawing.
Edd began drawing while attending Orleans Park School.[4] Later on, Edd started using an animated gif maker to make gifs about various things like "stickmen dying and farts". However, when Edd finally found a site to post the gifs on (sfdt.com), he discovered they were only accepting flash entries. Edd decided to search for some flash entries and came across one titled Agent Smiley, and he got Macromedia Flash MX on November 7, 2002 as a result.[3 •
