Hi all,
I am working to create a skateboarding website allowing users to create their own profile and connect with fellow skateboarders in similar and different areas. also im trying to allow the site to inform fellow skateboarders of new parks and events. It was also be really neat but seemingly far fetched if the site could allow them to post video of them skateboarding. Im new to web programming but am yearning to learn as much as i can. My goal is to start something small and possibly let it grow into something big. Can anyone offer any advice as to where a good place to start and maybe with what programming languages and resouces would be helpful so that i can create this site? thank you so much to all who reply.

First thing, in your thread title put more than just help. Then people browsing posts dont click in to them if they cant help ou but click in to them if they can. You'll get a faster, more helpful response that way.

Google w3 schools. Thats an excellent resource for learning code. Easiest way might be to code in css/html, php and the database in mysql. PHP is the server side language and mysql stores the user profiles in a database. You'll need an uploading facility so users can upload their videos and then its probably advisable to mod the videos for inappropiate content and store it as a suitable size and format for streaming.

If all that sounds like greek then before you attempt the page start with a few small personal practise pages as you learn to code then try more advanced pages like the one you have in mind.
