Hi, as the title states and as many of you know already I am new here. I have experience in Java but I never learned the AWT or JFC. Ive taken a little time to look around the forums and I notice yall do not like it when new users ask to be mods, so I will not ask. I hope I have a good experience with DarkBASIC. The tutorials did not help me much. I was hoping one of you generous members could kindly direct me to a third party tutorial of some sort.

Thank You

Hello Evil Dictator (wow, that sounds weird.)

Welcome to the forums, and thanks for searching before asking. If you'd like some tutorials, drop on by Curved Basic, my DarkBasic/programming site.

17 tutorials with nearly every line commented. At the moment, it doesn't really matter what order you go through them, yet eventually I'll compile them in a fashionable order.

Again, welcome to the forums, and if you have any more questions drop a question here, or at the Curved Basic forum.

If I were you, I'd check out dbspot.com. A fellow db'er runs the place and gives unlimited everything for free.

Innocent victims, lured to the cheaply setup servers only to find out that unmeasurable terror will soon be upon them. They race to catch their breath as the particularly slow FTP server is processing. They fill cold chiils up their back and know that they will soon be damaged forever by the use of an unstable server.


Sorry, Its just a small little somethin I wrote. I thought iy may pertain to some of yall around here.

In the long run, it's probably a good idea to have your own host, or better yet, your own webserver.

For me, I just host images, tutorials, a forum, and files. I wouldn't be too mad if I lost all the stuff.(Since it can easily be replaced)

That's almost as bad. Almost.
