I was at one point Design Team Manager there but have since stepped down. This is now my only and primary residence :grin1: John loves to talk and enjoys sharing his stories. With frequent things like "Paige Alerts" he always has something interesting to say.

It looks nice, well done, though the white background if a bit bright, of course, I tend to keep the lights low at night, so, well, everything's a bit bright. LOL

Laxer Administrator Staff member Joined Feb 20, 2012 Posts 3,997 Location Portland, OR May 4, 2013 #12 The latest skin was done by Stephen(Tekno Venus). Design covers a wide spectrum at TSF. I am more of a server sided specialist than a web designer. I work more on the backend work to get the pages working correctly and keeping the server online. PHP/SQL/SSH are fairly common. If you're interested in that route we have quite a few skilled people here. I work a lot with the backend, Wmorri(current Design manager at TSF) works with HTML5, Tekno Venus and Will Watts have been working quite a bit with vB and Aceinfinity knows some of everything. We all run in a million directions but at the same time are a great hub of knowledge if you are interested. (This applies to just about anything, hardware, networking, bluescreens...)

When and if I ever need assistance I may take you up on it, thank you. I'm a Windows Server / Domain / Networking guy I do have something I want to do, actually 2 things, I PM'd John about one the other seems to costly. A guy told me it would cost about $10,000 which just seems retarded, but... I'm no programmer Anyway, thanks

If you have great ideas I am sure John can think of some way to help or accommodate you. Sounds you like you do some of the work I have to do remotely. I have never been very good at networking things, aside from setting up and secure ports I am a noob :lolg:

Tomshawk Visiting Expert Joined May 3, 2013 Posts 25 Location California May 4, 2013 #16 Well, the job I PM'd John about is more about his opinion but didn't want to post it in the forums without his thoughts and ok. the other I posted on TSF and I researched the reply I got and well, it just didn't seem feasable as stated by the person that replied, noting I dont know the product he recommended but I did alot of looking in the plugins for it, and nothing would do as I needed. I do alot of my work remotely as well, Server maintenance, Remote maintenance of workstations, ACL's on routers, ETC
