Im a newbie hobby programmer, i have released two apps, Rpg App (1st edition) and Rpg App (2nd edition)(this one is a universal app so its for windows phone AND windows ...so does that mean i have released 3?)
I program in my spare time and im self taught, one of the main reasons i would like to be in this group is the access to the developers forum, it would be nice to have a place i can ask questions that to seasoned programmers may seem a bit basic, and get help with out being ridiculed for my lack of knowledge in some areas (had some very bad experiences elsewhere and almost gave up on programming before).
Why do i say im a hobby programmer? well i work full time and code in my spare time, my apps are all free (though i confess i add BIG donate buttons to them, not that users have noticed them yet....any way to add neon flashing lights?
) and i do program because i enjoy it, theres no greater feeling then going from a blank page to a working app and knowing you created that (well apart from maybe the warm fuzzy feeling of getting a 5 star rating on your app from a user) but im not in it for the money (not good enough to be either lol).
