My name is Gareth Hodson and I was born in 1989. I first started out on the Internet little over two years ago. In that time I have picked up things quite quickly. I now get many clients for design work, and a lot of coding jobs (website design, small applications etc). I am proficient in xhtml/css and javascript. I also know a little php/mysql, but I still have a lot to learn - hence why I currently only develop small applications such as contact forms/newsletter, however I will get better!

I am the webmaster of quite a few sites. My main achievements include:
- Developing 1StopDir - the site now has over 700 submitted links and grows each and everyday. Free links for everyone, this is my way of giving something back.
- My first site, CodedFX. It is now a fully established community with over 4,500 users. It is now regarded as one of the top web design forums on the Internet.
- My hosting company. This is a site I have put a lot of time into - now with over 20 clients. The customers welfare is my main priority, and keeping them happy is what motivates me when it comes to HostedFX.

I develop sites reguarly and usually sell them on for a profit. I'm always on the lookout for sites to buy or nice domains that I can develop. As an individual I strive for perfection - if something is not right I will work non-stop until it is right. I believe this is the main reason of my success. I simply refuse to accept and dispise any form of failure.

I'm looking forward to taking an active part within the community.

Hi, Just joined

Hi, I'm Lisa. I came across WickedFire via my web stats. I clicked on the referral link and started reading and decided to join. I found quite a few of the threads and topics of interest to me.

I'm the owner of a site/blog design studio at E.Webscapes. I dabble mostly in CSS, PHP, HTML and custom CMS design and set up. I started E.Webscapes in 2000 and currently have a portfolio of over 400 clients. I also own and operate a hosting company that is focused mainly on blogs and bloggers at Blogs About Hosting. We currently have about 200+ clients there and are going strong (so far!).

Probably like most here, my time for 'fun' on the internet is limited by real life - work, family, etc - but I hope to read several of the threads on here and hopefully find a bit of time to participate in the discussions.
 
Hi, I'm Michael Nguyen.

Been lurking/contributing to various forums, but alot of the older forums are growing stale (wmw/dp/sp/sew/synd) and it may be time to start spending more time at the newer places.
 
My name is Robert DeVore.

I am 21 years old.

I have been designing since I was 16 and took it to become an actual company 1 1/2 years ago.

I run a few websites, and am working on making a few more. I have a couple in the adult industry also, which is fun.

I am going to be married in August 07 to my girlfriend of 6 1/2 years, Angela.

I am looking to network with other business people, and possibly build relationships with them where we can help each other out, (ie: Designs, content, SEO, traffic, ect.)

Anything else youd like to know, just ask. I like to network with people.

Hi. I'm Jason and I'm from Las Vegas. I didn't hear about WF until today when I read about it on RevenueNews. Interesting, especially the contests, so I'm going to have a poke around. I don't know if I'll contribute much at first, but I usually warm up to these things eventually. Looking mostly to share ideas on time management, perseverence, bringing ideas to fruition, and a lot more.

Hey I am Threejuice from Hollywood CA, I have been in the business for about 2 years. I am 30 and open to new ideas. I am looking to learn from all you younger guys with some great ideas.
 
Hi, my name is Sarah and I'm just getting started with the whole internet thing. A friend told me this was a good site to visit to learn, etc. Honestly, I'm not interested in a lot of the stuff you guys discuss here. I just want to make a few websites to kind of test them out and if I can make money with them, great.

Right now I have two sites Big Celebrity News and Big Movie News. Those are subjects i am interested in, even though I know the market is kind of crowded for those topics. We'll see what happens and maybe I will get hooked on this thing.

Hi there, just joined up here and at Lee Dodd's forums recently. Nice contests going on here.

I'm building up a video gaming network this summer and hoping to expand into other media niches through the rest of 2006, concentrating mainly on contextual ads for now.
