Re: Thanks again
Thanks and you are welcome. It's nice here, cause it is a small community, and it's sort of like a family. Hopefully you will meet some of the others shortly.
How did you guys start learning all this computer programming stuff? Have you taken classes or did you just start messing around with it? I'd like to learn a few things, but I'm not sure where or how to start...
Thanks
So you really HAVE learned most of it just by doing it. I'm impressed! I can learn stuff that way too, but it helps to have a "jumping off point", if you know what I mean.
I'll have to have a look around some more. I know one of my problems on really starting to learn anything, is a lack of funds to get any good or decent programs. Thanks for the help, tho.
Re: You're welcome
What - exactly - afre you trying to learn first.?.
Thank you Lewisja, for the compliment,it is deeply appreciated.
I personally started to learn HTML because the templates they were offering for building web sites(where I went) were just not what I wanted, So I determined to make my own - so I had to learn HTML coding, then immediately I ran into JavaScript, and learned that some of the effects I wanted were not do-able in HTML so I had to learn JavaScript, and so on and so on. Just don't try to do like I did -it's killer!!!!!! I tried to learn them all at the same time, and it can become confusing what is used where and in what order,etc..
Re: You're welcome
Thanks you guys. I appreciate the feedback.
King, I really want to learn to do gif animations, like for animated cards, etc. I'd like to learn java, I already know a bit of html (have a good book). I want to learn to make awesome webpages too, but I don't know if there's as much of a market for that as there once was. I'd really like to stay at home & work on things on my computer to make money. (wouldn't we all?LOL) It seems like every time I find something I want to learn...something NEW is created to tempt me!
lewisja, I have checked some of the free stuff out, but a lot of the ones that are worth anything are for a trial period only, then you have to buy them. I will check again, tho, as new stuff is being added all the time.
