Does anyone need anything?

Post by Virt »

I've currently been assigned nothing all week at work so far, so I've just been testing installs, documenting bugs, dying of boredom.. etc.. :lol:

I haven't really done any big software projects of my own in like a year, and I can't think of anything to do. Is there any sort of system anyone here needs or wants? :lol: I need something to do to stop me going crazy, and because over the past year I've learnt like 8 languages and my main language has changed completely I feel like testing myself and seeing what can be improved on...

If not, I'll just find an app and re-create it or something. I have no imagination :thumbdown: Wanna create the game that I've had in my head for a while, for mobile devices, but I can't find a graphic designer :thumbdown:

A cricket scorecard entry, fixtures and averages database component and modules for Joomla 1.5/2.5 - similar to sportstatz system http://www.sportstatz.com/ss/details.aspx

Reckon you could charge for £50+ for a club (max of 4 teams) version, and £200+ for a (unlimited teams) league version.

Understood all of that up to Joomla. :lol:

Oh okay, I was gonna google it in a few minutes. I assumed it was some sort of Cricket standards or something.. Sounds fair enough, I have a copy of Microsoft SQL Server 2014 on my laptop at home so that would be easier to use as the LINQ would function correctly with the VS 2013/.NET 4.5 as they're both microsoft products...

On the other hand this is microsoft and they've never exactly followed logic beforehand, so why would they start now? :lol:

Sounds interesting though. Just a shame I know nout about cricket, and it would be best provided as SaaS which is another field I'm not all too familiar with.. Wonder if ASP.NET would allow it :think:

Or http://www.vtr1000.org/phpBB3/viewtopic ... 18&t=27367

You could sort Paypal out for me Virt. I keep getting a javascript error pop up after logging in. I click OK in the pop up and it reapers. This is a continuous cycle and to get out of it and log into my account I have to go back to the index page by clicking Paypal in the bookmarks again. It then goes straight to my account. It's very frustrating. I must try loggin in with another browser to see if it's a Firfox or extension issue or not. :think:

Sounds like an error with an extension, what extensions are you running? I use firefox on the macbook and I get no javascript errors...
