    Hello,
    Online, I typically go by nightsparks. I'm a graduate student working toward a math Ph.D. I tend to do web dev work and computer repair work on the side for a bit of spending cash. I've been around programming for quite some time and tend to incorporate a lot of it into my schooling.

    Anyway, I look forward to hanging around here for a bit! See you around.

    Welcome to Admin Talk!

    Does your programming knowledge include web design or like C++?

    If you can do web design you could probably make some extra money here offering your services to the members - we all need a good coder on hand hehe!

    I do everything from web design to web dev. Custom backends to CMSs. I've setup sites for universities using Drupal and for state organizations with WordPress.

    Right now, I'm working on a redesign of a site for an Academy of Science (state chapter). It's fairly neat. They're by far the pickiest client I've had and sometimes it's hard to get a message through to them (no, you can't have that Flash menu on an iPad), but they're giving me a chance to be really creative with it. That's pretty much what I do. Websites for local organizations and whatnot. Although, I used to work as a junior web dev at a large university - that was a lot of fun!

    Web design, web development, yup. I've got experience with Python, C, C++, Java, C#, PHP, and more! Name it, I've probably played around with it at one time or another! I've loved programming for years and can't think of anything better to do in my free time (except maybe math...).
