I'm new here.

Hi, I'm new here. I found the link to this site at phpfreaks and decided to check it out.

My name is Tristan Wells. I am 13 years old. And I live in Southern Louisiana.

I've been dedacated to web development and programming for about 4 years now. I learned HTML in March of '99 as a 4th grade project. After about 3 years of development with HTML I decided to expand my knowledge. So I picked up CSS, XHTML, PHP, MySQL, and Javascript. I'm also learning XML/Perl to port my PHP scripts and increase the userbase.

I am currently a member of 2 development groups, DarkStar Development and Nova-Fusion. I was invited to join the Nefarious PHP group but the group disbanded before I officially joined.

I am as into music as I am computers. Infact I find it hard to use the computer without music. I like all forms of music, even SOME country. My favorite band at the time is Linkin Park.

I'm also a huge fan of movies/dvds. My favorite actor is Keanu Reeves and my favorite acctress is Alexz Johnson. My favorite movie at the time is "Bill and Ted's Bogus Journy".

Thats about all there is to know about me, I hope I didn't make you too bored. :p

LOL. I know it was a movie in the 80's. My grandmother ordered from Domino's and got the DVD release. And since she didn't have a DVD player she just gave it to the nerd of the family.

Low birth weight? I don't really have to worry about getting pregnant in the first place now do I? 😛

Another person that young that knows as much as if not more than me?? Geez you guys are making me feel less and less smart! 🙁

Someone needs to make a "How old are you" poll so I can see just how old everyone is! 😉

Ya know, I can't think of many programmers that aren't picky.... :p

piersk

Comes with the job. You've gotta be picky, otherwise you're not gonna be able to write good code.

LordShryku

Yeah, it's funny when you first notice it too. I never thought of myself as picky until another guy here started learning PHP, and showed me some of his code.

Moonglobe

yeah i know. i tried to teach my friend and had trouble explaining to him why some of his code wasn't what i would write.... what you gain from experience you know better than anything else i find.

Welcome, Tristan! Hope you have fun here 🙂

That requires to much effort on my part.. I did my part by coming up with the idea, so someone else has to do the rest :p j/k
