im about to start using some creatine this fall/winter, i was taking cell tech last yr but i got fat from all the water weight and i looked like shit (was also noticable)i was wondering what is a creatine that would be effective, but have the least bloaty effect. But if cell tech is the most effective, then i guess ill just have to deal with the excess water weight. Also how long should i take the creatine, how many grams, to make it work the best with the least water weight gains.

Well creatine works by drawing water into your muscle cells, so I don't think another brand is going to make any difference.
I'm not convinced that any one brand is better than any other, except that some products such as cell tech combine creatine with other "transporters" such as ALA and dextrose.
You only need about 5 grams per day of creatine. You can take it indefinately.

its not just the brand...
granted... some people dont "respond" to regular creatine monohydrate...
some of the other brands (swole V2, San V12, and Satur8, to name a few) use creatine dimalate or trimalate (sp)...
many people who have no effects from regular mono like this stuff, and report little water retention.
as for CEE... its rather new, so i dont know much about it - but it seems to be promising.

from the pulldown product categories find "creatine ester" at dpsnutrition.net, i am taking the Serious Nutrition Solutions CEE and seeing good results. many new CEE products since i bought mine, so don't know about them, but SNS works well.
