Hi, I'm Ronnie from Oregon. The title of the thread tells what I'm mostly about. I co-host a weekly radio show, have written and recorded many songs, and have released a CD. All from my home studio. I got interested in learning IM by researching how I could best promote my CD. That led me to learn HTML, CSS,...... which led to creating a website. Then, I gravitated to the "converting text to audio" niche. I don't consider myself a "newbie", but far from an expert. So, I plan on contributing what I know, when appropriate, and soaking in as much info that's new to me as I can. I LOVE to learn something I don't already know. OK, I've rambled enough.... now to get to know some of you! Ronnie
