I've no idea what /Vorls is, cos I don't keep up to date with technologies... and that's another reason I would never have faired well as a web developer; because everything's always changing and I can't keep up... I'm a slow learner like that. So it's basically only VB, Gambas (essentially a Linux version of VB), PHP, and more recently, Java through app programming, and Javascript through the Mafia programs I've written here, that I know or use. But I'm happy and proud that I was able to learn enough HTML, CSS, and Javascript together to make those two mafia programs... but both are still more about function than form. But that's as far as it goes with them, I still have no clue whatsoever how you'd go about making a modern site with them, especially the CSS aspect, and tbh I don't like using too modern sites, since the more flashy they are the slower they tend to load for me. So yeah, I'm not very artistic either... I prefer simple but functional designs.
Vorls...as in Vorlon. Because I said I preferred the back end.
I mean, I know it was a lame joke, but c'mon, man
