Hi. I'm the head moderator at a fairly new website for a fairly new musician. I'm a neophyte to the moderating business, but we're all volunteer and I had the most experience working with people, so I got the job. I've been looking for ideas on ways to improve the content of our forum, and of course increase our numbers, and so I was delighted to find this forum. We're learning as we go, and I anticipate finding people to chat with here who have similar issues.

:cool: Name is Kuowang (user name)
but I am not Chinese
Height is 164 cm
Weight is about 70 kg
Eyes are brown, the two of them.
Hair is brown, some white threads about
Age is 50
Hobbies: Classical music only, (Bruckner) cycling, computers, fractals
Background is the sciences, U Berlin and Zurich
I am going to start with C++, I'll soon need it
Right now I am about to finish a second book on Gothic architecture
More specifically the geometry used by master masons in the Low
Middle Ages. Y cracked down the way they used their very simple
geometry.
You will understand this. It is an algorithm. Very clever of them, and
a fairly complex program. Buildings were designed with eight
numbers 1 to 8. That's all. Historically they are known as the first and
second Pythagorean tetraktys. Their version of their primeval Big
Bang, the central point where the algorithm starts. A pair of
compasses, a ruler and scales. The procedure explains why they were
able to build such complex buildins. But I must be boring you.
My location is Grand Canaria, Spain, 90 miles off the African coast.
I must say I don't fully understand, at least not yet, the rituals of
your fora. And your computarese. Give me chance, will you? And
dont't expect that I say much, I won't be able to produce snippets
of code to help others.
Well, that's all for now. Wait, not all.
The opus geometricum, the mediaeval procedure used by masters,
could be understood as an historical instance of an early but
extremely sophisticated program!

Hi Guys-
Hobbies-Waterfowler,decoy carver working with Labs

I have joined this site with the intention of soaking up as much good info as I can. I am not techno literate to the extent many of you are here and so I may shake my head a few times trying to make sense of it all.
I have a little site and like I read someones post on here earlier any 3rd grader can follow the how tos and make a site. My goal however is to offer the best site I can, and that means becoming more www. savvy.
Tonight I was asked to look into setting up a website for a local waterfowl chapter. I have conceptualization skills but limited technical abilities. but as they say willing to learn.
Trivia: My son in law works for a company as a programmer contracted to EA games. Being a gamer as well I think thats pretty cool.

Dislike(s)
People asking to many questions.
Entertainmnet
Movies, no. Tv, no. Games, adventure and rpg. Clubbing, yeah.
Think that is more than enough information I should give out to complete total strangers I haven't met, otherwise you are going to start asking questions, and I dislike being asked questions and I sure don't want not to like any of you but if you ask me questions I don't like I will certainly develop a dislike in you and you won't like it when I don't like you.
Lost you there? Not. Must be loosing my touch then.
Anyway hope to talk, argue and dispute with you folks in the upcoming time.

My name is Joy and I have 2 small dogs. I live Calgary, Alberta, Canada. (Just above Montana.) I am twice as old as most of you and have been using Macs for graphic design since they first came out. I love my G4.
Ten years ago I was at the top of my game - an expert at Illustrator, Xpress and Photoshop. I even taught classes in graphic software! A major illness set me back but I am "back in the saddle again". My present challenge is to learn Indesign, Flash and Dreamweaver.
My music tastes are very eclectic - Elvis Costello, Clash, Miles Davis, Beck, Violent Femmes, Jimmy Rogers, Frank Zappa, Patsy Cline some classical, some blues, most Jazz!
I like to read popular science and Sci-fi novels. I love to do crossword puzzles.
My favorite movies include: Down by Law, Monsters Inc, Predator, Memento, Withnail and I, Blade Runner, Brazil, and any movie with Johnny Depp in it!

Hi - I am an OAP living in the UK on the South Coast. I stumbled on this Group whilst looking for information on how to remove something nasty - lol.
I've been reading through previous posts about it and I think it's all too technical for me.
I'm pretty good at following instructions but when it comes to starting in safe mode and log files, etc. it all seems to go over my head.
Is there any hope for me I wonder.
I was going to ask for help but I have read all the things to do beforehand and I am confused already.
Maybe I should go back to knitting eh ;)
