Thanks for getting back to me so fast. I am trying to get through all
the documentation you have on the website, which is very helpful, but
I struggle a lot with this. Thanks for the links, I just need to give
it some time, and if I could ask you guys questions it would be great!
My web design class wants us to contribute to an open source project
of our choice. So far I have come up with a design for a front
page that I tried to attach to this e-mail, but it didn't go through,
do you know how I could send you an image? It's very rough, considering
it's the first round, but I have already gotten some positive and
negative feedback on it.
I was considering including a video of how to use cURL on the frontpage,
but do you think that is something users would enjoy?
Any suggestions with the design would be very helpful, but please
don't feel obligated.
Thank you,
Sheila
