Hi, I'm tierro

hi

I already answered a post before I actually found this forum,

Anyway, I stranded here thanks to google - I just keyed in Programming Forums, and it worked

I write code since my seventh (could I be a prodigy?) and I have most experience in Visual Basic - Nearly any basic, Vic 20, C64, Qbasic, Gwbasic (Lot's of old stuff I practiced on), Basic4Gl, VB6 - even VBA doesn't scare me

This summer I signed up at thedesignforums.com, where I'm having a good time as a mod. It just not very populated there. Those guys gave me inspiration for three projects I'm working/worked on:
JGT (A game timer named after the member who inspired me.) - <snipped URL>
MusicDrop (Basically my own idea. I just really needed something less laggy than WMP with autofade funstions) - <snipped url>
and Project V (A shell replacement, in which the previous two projects are intergrated) <snipped url>- currently offline

Also I'm a complete multiscreen addict. As much as possible is my slogan - I wired up three screens and a PDA as fourth 'sideshow'

I'm known as the 'big nerd' where I live, tho it occupies just a small piece of time. Mostly, it's homework i'm doing. I'm outside when possible.

I like... Girls, big speakers which can and will make lots of noise, music, lunchbreak and the line character: -
I don't like... art - especially the drawing stuff... ew, people who are going to decipher every abbreviation i use, the wrong way on purpose and people taking me too serious

Lol, now that's me,
I'll be right back, I'm having lunch now.

Cool beans. Nice to meet you.

My advice: get off Basic. Learn a real language - pick up C++ or Java or something. If you must stick to Basic, at least pick up VB .NET/2005/2008 (Visual Basic 2008's recommended, being the latest version) - it's much cleaner, more efficient, more powerful and generally better than any other Basic iteration.

It's a term used when you hear the same thing over and over. For example, Learn C++ rather than BASIC. I have heard alot of people say that.
I was about to tell you off, but I then saw that you are from the Netherlands, you probably wouldn't have heard it before.
