One thing I found odd was you are advertising your own banner on your own site.. and even tracking those clicks 8O


Seems like you are off to a good start, but what happens when your content grows.. your navigation is going to be insanly long..

I recommend you re-think how your navigation is going to handle more tutorials and articles and such..

agree with both but it does look like a decent site but I would also change the font style and size of the examples as they looked quite poor to me and where hard to read. Otherwise off to a great start I think?

Just a quick note about your main page. I do not believe that the "hp" in PHP stands for Home Page. I have always thought PHP stood for Hypertext PreProcessor.

Please correct me if I am wrong :) :P

if i'm not mistaken at first it was "personal home page" after that it changed to "php hypertext processor".

can probably read that in the php.net history or so :)
