Oh yeah why not - anything opensource is welcome there.. anything that can be developed into a fully functional application Will make a section for it.

Woah. I'm am super exitied about this!

I'm going to join right now and start posting. I'm still a new coder but I'm pretty good at CSS and good at HTML a nd well it kind of stops there. Well no I have a little Python and Java but I'll try my best no matter what it takes. This will be awesome!

Well its late here, and i'm real tired, but i'm interested in this too. As many of the previous posters in this thread, i'm not much of an application programmer, but I can code a website pretty good. I also have pretty impeccible grammar... at least better than most. I'm always correcting my friends, then look like a hypocrite when i make a mistake. (ha, i just had to google for hypocrite)
Anywho, i'll get myself signed up at the anitlost forums and hopefully tomorrow i'll be able to request hosting on this site. I'm looking forward to being active on both sites.

non-coders UNITE lets show that we are capable of contributing to a research program in ways that make us indespensable....lol. Comeone people lets get antilost off the ground an productive...I'm itching to do something away from my gaming and real-world job....lol

Hey m^e, I want to be a junior coder before I graduate from school. If we have some spare time, maybe I can come over to your place and learn computer languages from you. Or maybe you can just teach me something... like hardware stuff, assembling computers, etc.

Anyway, I think this will need a VERY LARGE AMOUNT of work-force and time-dedication to pull this off. I mean, I know that you guys are not aiming to be as big as SourceForge.net, but something similar, right? Well, do not worry because I believe that AntiLost.org has potential to become a successful open source website.

But, I want to at least get some training so that I can help better. I am not that great with Photoshopping nor coding (I just know basic HTML stuff). If you can recommend me what to learn or at least WHERE I can self-teach myself, then that will be great.

Send me a PM, e-mail, doesn't matter. I will be glad to help!

Cyborg~ it really depends on what you intend to do. Different languages are better suited for various tasks. For example, PHP is much more (obviously) web oriented than, say, C++. I think the very basic thing to do is pick a language and throw yourself into it. Get the syntax down, understand how, why, etc on every level. The most important thing is to give yourself a strong base. With this you'll pick it up quick, and when you want to branch into other languages it will be pretty simple. All you'll have to do is familiarize yourself a bit and get the ties between a language you know and the knew language established. Pretty much every programming language is extremely similar in terms of "vocabulary" and various methods for getting places.

Like I said, just throw yourself into it. It's extremely boring at first (at least it was for me) but the end results are great.

Ahhh... thanks for that little bit of advice, derouge. I think I heard that stuff a couple times more from other people but hmm, now I can't think it's just a way to get me into only one language. Yeah, I'll probably finish HTML and then start off with PHP. Might you know where I can learn PHP on the Net? For example, online tutorials like htmlgoodies.com ??

By the way, on the first day I was learning HTML at the site I listed above, I was very sleepy - it was VERY boring!! But... BUT - the end results were very satisfying It's so great to see your own work...

A simple page with nothing but a bolded "This is my first web page"
Hahaha!! HTML... cool stuff

Hmm. Open-Source Game Section. Sounds interesting.

As far as I am aware, viz is building (or has made) his own Game company thingy. I'm also interested in Game design and development.

Consider the forum made

AntiLost is flying high this time, and a better and more varied audience is getting involved. I can't wait for the future.

good description, I am "have made/am building the company" just need to file some paperwork and raise, oh, say, around 25000-50000 USD. tHanks for the forum. by the way, soon as antilost starts project gosting, my company has a game related major project to sponsr, but no more details until then, just to keep you guys coming to antilost and waiting.

Well, to everyone that is not a coder, I am not one either, though I am there

See we don't need just coders, people who are good in designing lay-outs, graphics for programs, skins even are welcomed just as much. Or people who can help with the manuals of the programs, with documentation... Everybody is welcome, even if your only forte is to talk calmly to get some sense into someone who's about to lose it

And you can also learn there THat's why it's a good idea to have a nice community there. Also, you can help spread the word
