Oooohh! I'll be up for it! I can do the whole lot, PHP, AJAX, JavaScript/JQuery. Plus it's what I do for a living. I've also developed alongside SMF, so just let me know whenever you need help with anything. If you're making a homepage, I suppose it has its own domain/host? I'm not sure if freesmfhosting will allow you to just add on a homepage and start tinkering around with the code. Honestly, freesmfhosting is bad. You won't be integrating any of the SMF functions into the homepage whilst you're on this host to say the least. I think we're just hosting the actual webpage somewhere else, then adding a link to it on evionet. And I agree, freesmfhosting is awful and I wish there was a way we could export posts/members to an actual hosted version of SMF.

I'm bored and it's the holiday, so I'm gonna go through TheNewBoston's C tutorials for the hell of it. It's only about an hour and 40 minutes, and I have plenty of time

I took programming (Grade 11) for my next year course. It's going to be lonely, seeing as i'm with a bunch of kids, but yea. Looking forward to it.

Try this instead: http://javascriptissexy.com/how-to-learn-javascript-properly/It goes through the codecademy stuff, but also gives you more resources so you have a FULL understanding of the language. Like, codecademy will teach you the language basics, but not what to do with it. This guide teaches you both, as well as more advanced stuff, which is good I have downloads of the books it says to get if you want me to upload them for you?

Maybe later, I am learning too much right now and just seeing what my options are for coding for the future. Thanks for the website broski :U

No problems. If you want to try another language, there's also 'Learn Python The Hard Way', which I'm trying again now.

So, I've realized the only thing holding me back from learning anything, is lack of motivation. Has anyone here had this problem? How did you counter it?

Had this problem. No cure. Just gave up.

Well, maybe you need to go through your programs/apps and see if any arent that great or could do better and try to make a better version. Or just make an app and hope it can make you moniez. Why did you start programming in the first place?

I wanted to make games. I still do, it's just all the tools people say to 'start' with seem so lackluster to me. Like, everyone recommends starting with Python and PyGame for games, but all the example games look terrible... I know I can't say much as I haven't even made one but still...

Well if it's recommended for babbys first game, its expected that the games will look turrible, they are/were babbys first game. It aint gonna be no Kingdom Hearts right away. Just start making a game and go from their, learning as you go maybe?

That... could work if someone were to make a long, thin graphic of a hoo ker, for the bats, and then make the background a poker table and have the ball as a chip. K, now I'm mildly inspired in a stupid way XD
