Karl actually started me programming in and around 2005ish. I was never much of a programmer at all, to be honest! I only got my first PC when I was 14-15, before then I was a right little wild-child, although I used to love sketching a lot. Quite a good drawer if I might say so myself and it all comes from the imagination.

I began with PERL actually. Karl began teaching me PHP but I couldn't get my poor non-programming head around it, so I switched to PERL and created my own little applications in there. That helped me understand all the logic. I was then able to port that over to PHP with the help of Karl, which gave me a lot of reading to do on how to do things in PHP that I did in PERL. I think one of the first applications I did was a code paster.
