We have started this new forum in response to all the questions we get about graphics, coding, emoticons and widgets. In this forum we are hoping to house your questions. let you ask for help, and then when you are an expert at something, share your expertise.

This poll will let us know what interests you the most!

I'd like to learn how to do all of these things. I'm most intersted in improving my HTML, XTML, and CSS. I've learned all of them online from sites like webmonkey. Right now, all the webpages I have are fairly boring, so I'd love to get some interesting ideas for things to do with them.

I voted for HTML too, I know a bit but not very much, and not all of it seems to work right. confused07.gif

Given the alternatives I voted for HTML, but I'll likely read most things related to coding. Webb Programming is a vast field and I'm interested in many aspects.

I'd love to learn more about things as optimizing your web pages, JavaScript, CSS, PHP... and so on. (Although I wouldn't be surprised if the level here will be on other things instead. ) Likewise, if I can help someone else along, I'll be happy to. smile.gif

As a second thought, it wouldn't hurt me to learn more about image manipulations either... wink.gif Not what I'm best at...

Graphics, 'cause I know HTML and PHP. The others I don't really care about.

I would love to hear about the CMS (content management system) that TLC is using, how you successfully incorporate galleries like Coppermine in with your CMS, how you pull in those nice little "related" articles and photos, the specific Metatag or tagging methods you're using. I would love to learn about php, using divs instead of tables, using "wrappers," and of course AJAXing webpages so they sparkle wink.gif

As you can see, each of these items could take up their own forum. *gulp* There are plenty of places to learn about these things by themselves, but perhaps some links to favorite off-site locations plus some lovely pearls of wisdom from the likes of Nick P and Alex G who've had to incorporate all of these things together?

I would love to learn everything, since I started my own board and I want to get well learned for it. I don't even know how to do most of the things.. I need help.

I want to learn about emoticons, but graphics in general (avatars, emoticons, all sorts!)

I've also created my own site recently, and would love to learn PHP.

I would love to learn about how to make avatars because I would really like to be able to do some of my own.
