Hello CodeCall Members!

So I am trying to update my portfolio. Right now I have 2 scripts. One being that website. So as you can see I do not have very much on there yet. Most of the projects I get are just like updating things which really are not "website worthy" so I am trying to think of a few projects for the site that I can create. Do you guys have any ideas?

Thanks for the help!

Have you done any PHP-GTK projects yet? That would be nice to have on your website. You can also do simple scripts like an ping script, reverse DNS, domain name lookup, etc. How much time do you want to spend on the scripts?

Well since it is summer and the goal is to make a decent portfolio I was hoping to get a few big projects vs a ton of small ones - quality over quantity! So virtually no time frame to complete them as long as they are good.

Im trying to look at the GTK thing - thats the thing for making desktop apps right? Its not very clear in the thing - it says GUI but thats HTML last time I checked? About to check out wiki lol - maybe the examples page? ha

Yes, it is used for making Desktop Applications. How about a shopping cart?

PHP is a web development language, not a desktop application development language - I have a difficult time accepting it for console applications. If you are going to learn something, learn something that is used in the industry. PHP-Gtk is not one of them.

PHP-GTK is incredibly useful skill to have in your PHP development toolbox, IMO. It allows a PHP programmer to become free from web-development without having to learn another language. PHP-GTK is compilable into executable format, as well. GTK also looks fantastic.

Your logic states that because an egg starts as an egg it can never become a chicken. How'd you like that analogy? :P

I am actually considering building an open source CMS for personal use mainly. If im doing websites for people this will cover most of the basics I suppose (forums, blogs, text, etc) then if I have applications I can just code those separately. And since its open source I can have users download free and pre-code link backs into them :D
