    I've been a member here for a couple of days, thought I should just pop in this forum and mention a bit about myself.

    I'm from Manchester, England and currently in the second year of a Computer Science degree (exams start on Monday... not at all ready for them :(). I came across DP when I was looking at vBulletin as a possible choice to power one of my sites and I wanted to see how other people were using the software. I particularly liked the 'recent blog entry' feature (although I'm a bit disappointed that it doesn't seem to work with my custom blog, even though it produces a valid RSS feed) and the Adsense revenue sharing, although I doubt my sites would ever warrant either of those.

    I'm currently working on getting my new weblog up and running with some new features, and quietly promoting my student site which I want to build up gradually over the coming months (working on getting both sites and their RSS feeds into the relevant search engines at the moment).

    I'm a dab hand with PHP/MySQL, so if anyone needs a hand with that sort of stuff start a thread in the programming forums and I'll do my best to help. :)

    Welcome!

    What are you doing here then... :)

    Pretty sure there's a post count restriction on it... Isn't there?

    I've got a question in there actually, nearly solved it...

    What do you think of Mourinho? Or are you not a footy fan?

    Procrastinating. :)

    I thought it was 10 posts, but I must be wrong. Either that or the system doesn't support my blog feed (don't see why it wouldn't though, I copied the format from a WP blog :)).

    I've no idea who Mourinho is... ;) (don't really follow football, and I don't like United).

    Well, I'm useless when it comes to art and any form of drawing (although I can design to an extent), so I guess it all evens out. :)
