ya, but to use mysql you need a bit of php knowlege as well. And i personally find php kinda advanced and frustrating lol

they all look good, and since i was to lazy to look into the contact much i went w/ the one that i thought looked the best and voted for maxotek. I also clicked on one of ur adds sten your welcome

i might give this a shot any1 else try this out?

Ya i'm dualbooting windows and linux right now and i find myself using windows more because i like my games

ya just make sure you are very organized and get a good group of starting members. you should be fine from tehre. oh and use vent or teamspeak works great to bring the team together.

I personally love conuterstrike:source. For the footsteps i dont know what i would do without them people would sneek up on u all the time. and the buy menu i dont even use before. Just get a buy script that binds the weaps and other stuff u need to ur number pad lots faster

I play source alot, but i got addicted and my parents got mad and now i cant play as much great game tho but once u get competitive it takes up alot of time

I love ubuntu to bad it doesnt work with my computer very well =( so i'm using linux mint instead wich is based of ubuntu its a great distro also. Its all about trying a bunch out. I have to agree with polar kde is way better than gnome looks so much nicer

great beginner tutorial i would also suggest that people go out and buy a book i find that one of the best ways to learn the language.

the gimp is good, but the layout of it bugs me probally because i'm used to photoshop

If i could play my computer games on it (so i guess talkin more desktop here) i would give mac a shot, but since most games only work on windows, and now with all this games for windwos *BLEEP* comming out i guess i have to stick to windows. this is my same problem w/ linux

heres what i find a bit amusing. the 16GB ipod touch goes for more money that the 160BG ipod classic. Thats is 10X the size for less money. Does a touch screen really matter that much? Seeing i would never need 160GB of storage on an ipod i could go to 80GB or whatever the next lowest is and save even more money. lol could you be any more ridiculous for buying an ipod touch?

Ok i have not tried vista and dont plan to anytime soon. I here it is still kinda buggy and not much better than xp so why waste my money? I have also tried linux and i LOVE it excpt for one small thing... i cant play my games =(. I know that it is possible by using cedega, or wine but its still not as smooth as running them on windows so looks like i cant drop windows yet. Also some1 mentioned open office. I agree open office is great, but i dont know if it completly out does microsoft office i think that they are more or less the same and i know my way around microsoft offices stuff a bit better so i guess i stick to that too.

Ok as people have mentioned already that if its for a group a forums system/message board is a great idea and i strongly recommend SMF as a free one, you can download it at http://www.simplemachines.org/. If you want more features to add to that to make it more like a webpage and less of just a forum you can download tinyportal wich is a portal software that adds many features to smf. Now if you want to make more advanced websites in the future i strongly recommend LEARNING html, xhtml, css to start then after you have that down look into php, javascript, and other programing languages. Dreamweaver works great but i personally perfer to code my sites from scratch, even tho they dont always turn out that great i learn to know why somthing is wrong... well good luck with you website creation

who would pay for someone to play a game for them. I do NOT play wow, not really my type of game and i dont entirely agree with paying to play a game in general. But the idea of paying someone to play a game for you is outrageous. But might be a fun job hmmmm lol well thats my oppinion on this.

I used photoshop for designing the images for my webpages and it works GREAT. If you havnt used it before it might take some time to learn to use all the features, try some online tutorials just to learn the types of things you can do. Also photoshop has a feature where u can make ur website all in photoshop and it will slice up the images and write the code. I would not suggest this, because then your whole page is images and gets very large. The code is also not always neat and up to standards. But to answere your question i would get photoshop

this sounds like a great deal, but being new to the community i have no idea how hard getting that many credits will be... by what the rest of u are saying sounds ilke it will be tough =( might have to eventually give it a shot tho
