Ok, so I’ve decided I’d like to start a little project but I’m just wondering am I getting way in over my Head.

I’m 15 and when you guys read this you’re probably just thinking that this is a ridiculous idea, but hear me out.

I’ve researched a little bit and looked in to it and it seems that the tools are out there in plentiful supply but are these tools really what I should be looking at? A site I’ve looked at recommended a few programs. One was BYOND and is mostly used to make racing games or roleplaying games (this sounded pretty ideal as my ‘idea’ is about ships, but also roleplaying). It also mentioned Adobe Flash CS4 and Microsoft Visual C++/Visual Basic Express. These are ones I’ve heard of before and I assume, are fairly popular. So here are my questions about the software:

1)Are they very complicated to use or will i be able to learn most with tutorials?
2)Will i need to learn C++ and if so would someone my age be able to understand it? ( seeing as I’ve heard there are whole degrees in university on the matter)

I’d like the game to be kind of like EVE Online mixed with Runescape (not the size of the games, more the concepts and the way you play them). But I know I’ll have to start out small, but where would you recommend I start (I’ve planned it and would just like to be able to make a ship and a man to start of with, with things to interact with inside the ship etc)?

And if I’ve got all of this completely wrong, just tell me and I’ll forget it because honestly I don’t have a clue what I’m on about and this whole question is based on what I’ve read on the internet.

Also, I dont know if this matters, but my Dad has trained with cisco with networking etc will this help me? And if you want to know my level of knowledge about computers, I’ll just say that I know my way around a computer and I’ve dabbled with modding in games such as TES: Oblivion. Again, will this help?
Ok, so I have found a really nice video tutorial on youtube using Unity 3d. I’m going to have a crack at this

I have been designing a website for a coffee shop that my dad and brother own. I have been using WordPress, which, for a first timer is actually pretty easy to learn. I’m a quick study and am reasonably intelligent, and WordPress has been pretty easy to use but lacks the capabilities that I am looking for in web design software. I have my own business and would like to create my own web page, but I would like for my page to be able to handle commerce. WordPress is blogging software, which is perfectly fine for a coffee shop (actually, kinda preferable!) but for someone who does not speak computer languages like XML and HTML, I need something that is kind of a drag and drop type software that has capabilities beyond blogging software.

Does anyone have any suggestions for software that would cost less than 0? is that even a reasonable amount? I don’t know anything about this stuff! All I know is that i’d prefer to do this myself as opposed to paying someone a ton of money to do it for me!

Thanks!

I might be building a barn this summer. What type of siding do you like or have what type of flooring, and walls. It is going to be on my dads property. Should we have electricity going to the barn for lights and water heaters. Also what are all the must haves in a barn..And what is your favorite water heater and where did you get it.And what are some good things books websites etc. will help me..Building it is going to me my sister brother and maybe dad.It is just going to be one or two horses at first.

my dad is a carpenter, so he is going to make me a wooden tack trunk!! he can probably figuire it out, but are there any websites that show how to build them, materials, etc?
thanks so much!! also, if it goes well with the one he builds me, he might sell them

i’ve had my stupid fights with a best friend of mine. him and i had a strong friendship for 2 years. but then. i cut off all contact with him at the beginning of this year. why? because i just couldn’t take it anymore. he kept bothering me about some dumb little thing, so i just stopped talking/texting him. he was the one who kept engaging the stupid little fights. i was the one who chose to cut off ties. i don’t remember if i told him that we get into dumb little fights, but he’ll probably be too stubborn to listen.

our friendship went a little something like this.
i’ve shared many memories with him. a mixture of sad, happy, and the funny memories. he encouraged me to get my permit. we planned and got our permits on the same day. he also encouraged me to get my license. we planned to get our licenses at the same time, too. but i got my license the day after he did, because my dad had work and wasn’t able to drive me to mvc. without his encouragement, i wouldn’t be driving today. i can’t imagine that because driving is fun. for me.

he helped encourage me to apply to college. to fight for what i wanted. my parents really wanted me to take nursing, but i didn’t want nursing. i told my friend i wanted to take cosmetology and he told me to take it instead. being pressured and trying to satisfy my parents expectations, i took nursing. bad idea, waste of money. i only took basic classes for 3 months and asked my parents if i can quit. and so i did, then enrolled into cosmetology.

i was there when he needed help with school work. he’s a procrastinator (just like me. teehee.) and always always alwaysss does his assignments the day before. i had to help him create a website for his business presentation a couple times before.

basically, we had each other’s backs for most things. when he needed someone to talk to about some drama happening at school, i was able to be there and give him advice. and in the end, things worked out for him.

i know that problems occur, but he starts the fights about pointless things. i was the one who cut off the friendship since i couldn’t take his behavior anymore, so i guess he expects me to contact him first. and i know that as friends, we should always stick with each other thick and thin.. i’ve been into worse fights with him before, so i guess i just got tired of the pointless fighting.

despite all that has happened, what would you do if you were thinking like me right now?
in my head, i want to rekindle my friendship with him, but i’m afraid that the minute problems will start up. but, i’ve been having thoughts recently about what’s he up to or if anything new happened to him lately.

i apologize for the longness of this post. he was one of my best friends. :/
and i never can trust people this easily these days..
but please, if you can give me your opinions?
thank you to all. (:

Just a little background information, I am in 8th grade, and this year’s about to end (I’ll be in 9th grade next year) and I love both language and computers, so I thought it might be a good idea to learn a computer language. My dad’s fluent in 7 or 8 of them, so he said he would teach me how to program in one of them. At first, I said HTML, because I know it’s much smaller cousin, BBCode, and I figured HTML would be easy. However, I’m more interested in the technical aspect rather than web design. Making the program run. For instance, I’ll use a dice roll program. I’d rather design the program to get the numbers than create the text on the website that runs it, and tells you what you got. I hope that’s clear enough. Anyways, in your experience, what would be a good language to learn first?

it’s pretty bad like his site is covered in clipart and his logo is an image in ariel font and the background doesn’t even match up it is like he use d a template or something and with the background the font colour is too dark so you cant read the text without highlighting it its gonna be difficult because the only reason why my housemate got her job is because of my dad and this website is tanking his biz any advise???? thx.

My dad wants me to spruce up his sad looking website. He uses Godaddy, and I don’t see where to input html or upload pics. Does he has to purchase something else or use a different program?

I’ve built very simple pages before, but would consider myself a beginner at building websites. If you know how to use this program, please give me some advice.

i am inexperienced but willing to learn my dad is an excellent mechanic and is able to help me. i have a farm that needs some work and i would like to have a project to work on in my spare time i was wondering how i should go about building this machine, this includes; websites, articles, personal experiences, what tools and parts i need, how to go about it, etc many thanks in advance

Hello, I’m fairly young and i wish to write or make my dad a website for his electrical business its small and only does work in certain areas i want to do this and add google ad sense to make some money……for him or for me =) so what do you suggest? learn html/php or css or use a free website making site?

My dad owns a siding company and wants me to help him make a website. What good softwares are out there that are on the cheaper side and how do I get a website address. I know how create myspace pages and I am a very quick learner. If I can just get the information on how and what to do then I am sure i will be able to figure it out but I need to find out where to start first.

Estimates :
How much will it cost us to get it up and going by doing it ourselves and how much will it cost monthly after that?

Would want visual view and directions? please help my gerbils are breeding and need more cages. my dad is a contractor with all the supplies. I just need something to go off of.

ok, so my dad offered me a summer job to take pictures for his company and then create a catalog and a website for his business. i need to find a good camera in the price range of 0-00. i want to get a really good digital SLR that will take quality pictures and look professional. any help would be great, and please list a few different choices. most comprehensive answer gets the ten points!

I’m creating a website for my dad’s small business that sells athletic equipment (like gym mats and stuff). I’m really new to this whole website stuff, but I know some html. Any recommendations for a web host?? (I’m looking for something simple, dependable, and on the cheaper side)
