having studied comps and that i should be able to solve my own problems but i still have to ask how to do things and such just because its different when a person is working on another persons comp but when its ur own that u working on i know for myself iam so worried that i would do something wrong and make the problem worse

Ok so incase it isn't obvious... I am ReDuXs girlfriend. And I'm atempting to learn a bit of what he knows. Considering he is the most intellegent man I have ever spoken to that is quite the task.

I help him run some of his websites, ok I answer questions and pass them on to him, but I feel useful... :o

I have a great teacher, so I hope I can learn a lot. :mrgreen:

Hi, my name is Andy, I'm a 4th year computer science student at RGU in aberdeen scotland. I run a small design/hosting service and also run a tourism website with a couple of friends on a small island in canada called prince edward island. Learning PHP/MySQL just now - I worked tech support for an outsource tech support company for the last year which helped a bit, but I'm still a big noob. Thanks for any help any of you champs can give.

Go aberdeen!

Hi to all the newcomers. Dani's been busy with personal matters lately and hasn't been able to drop in much, so I'll welcome you all on her behalf and express out desire that you find this forum helpful, and that you remain here and pass on your own experiences and knowledge for the benefit of others.

Remember everyone, the 'expert' is only the bloke who's read a few more pages of the manual than you have! ;)


Oh, by the way elton. 'Rule' number one is that fancy fonts and multi-cloloured text are hard to read, and people often don't like to see them. Well, okay, it's not really a 'rule'. But it's a truism nevertheless :D

Hey Catweazzle! I still do stop by here as often as I can, although I don't post as much as I should be. But, I know that Aussie in you will explain to me what a bloke is, right?

Hi Dani,

The Koorie in me says that a 'bloke' is a 'fella'. The pedant in me says that a 'fella' is a 'man'. The larrikin in me says that I shouldn't use the term 'guy', because saying 'guy' is 'gay'. The PC Gamer in me says that 'gay' in that sense has nothing whatsoever to do with homosexuality.

But above all, the 'nice old bloke' in me says that I shouldn't really have used such a gender-specific term!

:D
