Ok people, here's the deal. I've recieved a lot of flack for not having a mainsite to go along with this forum. So I've decided to make a main site (hold the cheers for a moment, there's a catch) The thing is, I don't know html/css or anything else. I'm what you call a "code pirate" (sounds worse than it is, trust me.) I don't steal codes, but I take codes GIVEN TO ME and tweak them with my extremely basic knowledge of html. This whole forum is built like that. Now, to actually build a site from scratch....that's another story. However, I've decided that I'm in with this project all the way, and it will NOT fail. I won't let it. So if the people want a main site, they'll get one. I've already started taking lessons on HTML, and CSS is next. I'll also try and brush up my photoshop skills to get a kickin' design for the site. Now, needless to say, no one can learn two computer launguages in a few days. This is going to take a while, I'm estimating between one or two years. So don't expect the mainsite right away, but just know, it's gonna get here...eventually. I'll update this thread with news on it regularly. Wish me luck!

Very cool, and quite an ambitious undertaking. (If you really get strung up on the html, you could always use frontpage or something. XD). Oh, and best of luck!

Well, I'm having difficulty finding a good tutorial on HTML (specifically videos) but I'm getting it. I've got the basics kinda down.

Thanks, that'll come in handy. I'm taking many different tutorials, so another one is always good.

I CAN HELP YOU!
No really, ask me any questions you have. I've been creating websites for years now, and I know everything there is to know. XD
Only thing I don't have is a good image-creating program.
I use paint+gimp

Oh yeah, there are plenty of websites that give you some sample codes and explain how they work, my favorite is a place called w3schools. Search it on google. =D it may be www.w3schools.comEdit: In fact, it is!

With the site? Just a mainsite, with walkthroughs and what not. Only instead of every zelda game, we focus on MM.
