Starting a project... In need of assistance...

Archive: 37 posts

So I'm making a website. Big ambitions here, but I'm planning on sticking with it until I can get it somewhere.

Thing is, I've noticed a lot of times many people from around my age group many times find themselves in need of advice, and it's often difficult to ask parents. I've personally been through a lot (and some of you have as well, see below.) and this afternoon I snapped with the idea, "I should use my mistakes and what I've learned from them for the advantage of others". So, to summarize, I'm planing on making a website filled with a range of advice. Except, you know, more fun that those other sites <_<

Of course, I have it all planned, and I'm going to support it financially, but I need some help.

Someone specialized in web development and hosting.
A few good writers, preferably under the age of 18, with a wide range of knowledge.
Consultants.


Sound like a stupid idea ta first, I know, but heck, worst case scenario we'll have fun with it. And I lose some few bucks :kz:

So, main priority right now is Web Developer/Host Expert.		2009-11-11 03:42:00

Awesome! For the sake of awesomeness, I will hire both you and LBPholic.

Positions are still open for writers and consultants, and if anyone wants to get in on the web Dev spot, I'll welcome them as well! I will be making a group to organize those who are hired.		2009-11-11 21:08:00

I'll write the occasional bit if you want, but if I were you I'd find a better way of keeping everyone updated than a Group, they don't auto-update you or anything 2009-11-12 00:35:00

@Cyber; What I have in mind is a site updated with various articles filled with advice in various fields of life, and considering they're the only ones really having trouble at this point, I'm aiming it specifically at teens. if I can work this out you'll see what I mean.

@Dex; I could hire you as consultant to the project! In fact, you're in!

Any further questions will be answered tomorrow! Please do not hesitate to apply or discuss this!

D: le gasp.

i wouldnt mind being a writer for you. just writing some stuff here and there is kinda fun.

also, i could help with the general design of the site. not making it, but sort of... drawing it out, in a way.
banners, logos, etc. that kind of thing. i have photoshop cs4, which could come in handy.		2009-11-16 05:25:00

I know a bit about web design, and my cousin has a web hosting service. And I guess I'm not that bad of a writer either.
I guess I could help.

Here's my cousin's hosting site: http://www.dewpixel.com/

If you need any help with anything feel free to ask.		2009-11-18 15:25:00

Dude, THANK YOU for the hoster. I needed one of those. I'm still waiting for one FINAL opinion, so after a final price comparison, I'll see if your cousin has a customer coming his way.

And I need more writers, so, you're hired

@Ayneh; anything that could be used to build a smooth site... I mean, html works fine, but, it's basic. Can't do much with it

I don't know how involved I can be but I usually have great advice. I had a pretty rough childhood and not only did I get past the damages I grew up to be a pretty decent dude.
I haven't given too many strangers advice but I'm usually spot on.		2009-11-20 17:01:00

@Ayneh; anything that could be used to build a smooth site... I mean, html works fine, but, it's basic. Can't do much with it
I know CSS, DHTML and how to implement JavaScript on top of being handy with HTML.

Here's something I've been working on lately...

If your designer sends me something to make into a webpage I could put it together for you, making it a template page that you could then fill with your content.

Have you sorted the hosting out?		2009-11-22 18:51:00
