DOOOO ITT!! My main focus of learning will be on mysql, so I want a lot on it.

flstudio: http://flstudio.image-line.com/documents/what.html (not free, but a very good program)

gtfo, lulz. w3schools is great for everything. I'ma continue to use it regardless of your irrelevant advice. I don't even know what OOP is. Marked just said you needed to know PHP before OOP anyways. hrmmph.

you should post some of your useful snippets so I can learn with some logical code that actual does things, lol

I dunno. Never was a huge FF fan... I only played what was in front of me for those... Not my type of game.

Naw, Kefka looked too... lame

Sweet-tooth for sure. Hes so much more BA than some girly looking man. Twisted metal is so much more fun. who doesn't love destroying things?

you poop face... I tried to figure out what it did, and all I could come up with is that it made something increase via "$y++"... almost crashed my browser, lol

No book, just w3schools.com

So, not knowing PHP has been holding me back quite a bit on some of my projects. Now that I'm learning it, I can progress on some of my more awesome websites, and pwn everyone lololol! So, today, 9/3/2010, this is my first bit of php: <?php echo "Hello World."; ?> <?php echo "This is my first PHP!"; // this is a line comment /* this is a comment block */ ?> <?php $txt="Hello Variable!"; $x=16; ?> <br /> <?php echo $txt; ?> Doesn't do much, only shows some text. But, Its pretty dang easy! edit, here's more! <br /> <?php echo strlen("ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ"); ?> <br /> <?php echo $x+3; ?> <br /> <?php if($d=="Fri")echo"Have a nice lulz weekend!"; if($m=="Sep")echo"SEPTEMBER!"; if($y=="2010")echo"The Year is 2010"; ?> <br /> Today's date is <?php echo $d; echo ", "; echo $m; echo "/"; echo $n; echo "/"; echo $y; ?> this is what all of that looks like:

phpBB is in no way complex, lol. I suppose its a matter of the time and resources youre willing to put into it, but since ive always psent a lot of time on forums and the like, I know phpBB like the back of my hand. the permissions are the only thing that get me every time, but I soon relearn it after the install.

SMF < phpBB ... My opinion anyways, and Ive used every major forum software to date. Maybe I'm a fanboy, I dunno, but Ive used phpBB since one of its earliest releases. I love it. SMF seems a bit too dull.

And leaving with him; half of this forum's drama. Can't say you'll be missed.

Alright... Knock it off guys. RKO, I'm gonna be honest here. I don't like you. You don't notice it, but in your racial topics, or even when you're "joking" about race, you pull the race card. I find it extremely offensive when you post anything about the differences in race, even when its not about Caucasians. Your DBZ topic about "slavery" was utter rubbish. You feel that there is a connection between a cartoon and the history of Slavery? Its a damned cartoon. Man up, and find something else to talk about. You seem a bit hung up on race, and its pissing me off. Also, Leon did not call people shit. "Shit Starter" would be someone who starts shit, not someone that is shit. That being said, Leon, As much as I agree with you, I don't think this topic was a wise decision. To have handled this differently would have been a better option. Everyone else. I know I'm no Moderator here, but cut the crap. Its time for maturity. I don;t mean to start a Fascist movement, but I believe some freedoms need to be taken away here on the forums. Some things are left too far to interpretation, and the debate board is clearly a bad idea... Remember, I love you all, yes, even you RKO. Lets all make up and huggles?

ibl Marked I feel for you. Sorry about all of this. I can't say I know exactly how it feels to have your own, successful, forum ruined my warring members, but I can relate a little bit. All I can say is to tough it out?

+1 for this

for just learning? what? I'm not just learning anything.

http://i35.tinypic.com/30a9mcj.png Theres my new eFolio being made. In my college class today, we were making efolios on some really crappy WYSIWYG efolio software online, and the templates were very limited, so I decided to make my own from scratch. what do you think so far? any suggestions?

/facepalm... Eco, you may like forumer, but the option I told you of, installing a forum on a webhost, is much better... really.

Youre not "Teaching" as you should. you should really show the process of one you would make. and not jsut the end product either. People cant learn by just being told to do something, they need to be showed how.

Yeah, because of the "browser fixes" that you can use in the css, more and more developpers are turning to CSS to build web2.0 and web3.0 designs and layouts. youc an also use CSS to create gradients. Images will be so obsolete in the future, lol.

lol, shame on me, but I only just discovered rounded corners, shadows, and a couple other things a few weeks ago... I am ashamed, lol.

Madanchi, nobody has size 800x600 screen resolutions anymore, and its not standard to design for them anymore. If someone does have a screen resolution of that size, its really up to them to update. 1024x768 is usually the smallest resolution that people use now.

Ooh, forgot to add that if youre using all tileable images, for navigation, background, etc, then you can use percentages to make your website a "one size fits all" solution. see how the rmxpu forums fit on any size resolution? thats because the forum uses percentages when setting the width for things. this way youc an have something fill up 80% of the screen, and it will look the same for everyone.
