Hello.

I have recently downloaded Visual Basic 2010 from Microsoft.

If you don't know, Visual Basic is a program that lets you make a program, and then you turn it into an EXE file.
Here are one of the VB2010 projects Im working on:

The Pointless Button is my first, so don't judge me.




I will post other projects later (and their download links)

I should learn Basic sometime, but I'm more of a JavaScript guy

If you already know another language, there's not much use for Basic. It's more of an introductory language! Maybe Visual Basic, but I would recommend a different language if you already feel comfortable with programming.

I would use JavaScript if possible, but I don't know Java so I use Visual Basic 2010 (I got a head start on it.)

I would've downloaded VB6, as it had support for viewing 1 swf file, but it was an old 1998 app and the only remaining download link contained viruses.

OH GUYS!

Time to meet my newest creation, MEGABROWSE!

It is a Internet browser.

All with:

-A Navigate Button (of course)
-Google Homepage
-Google Search Toolbar (currently broken)
-Flash Player Support
-Java Support
-JavaScript Support
-Download Support
-Internet Explorer's 404 Page
-Multiplayer game support
…and much more!

However Tinypic would not let me upload a picture because it is too big.

I will post a down-load link later.

Oh, goodness. Java and JavaScript share name only, not syntax or most common use. You don't, in any way, need to know Java to be able to learn JavaScript.

I made my profile picture in 2011 when I was 12 and it is by far my greatest artistic achievement.

Does it use webkit or the IE thingy preinstalled?

In Visual C# (which is pretty similar) I have made browsers with the IE thingy but they weren't all that great because on my computer IE is pretty slow.

Yeah… I guess I was being vague.

In Visual C# the class is a WebBrowser. Did you just insert a WebBrowser object in the form? If so that's the IE thingy.

Hi, I have a bit of experience with REAL programming. I really don't consider Scratch a programming language. I just use it because it's fun dragging-and-dropping blocks. If you want to write a really fast, cool, 3D (or 2D) GUI program, use C++. However, C++ takes many years to learn because of the fact that you have direct memory access and that's good. So in my opinion, I think that you should first learn Visual Basic.NET and then move on to C++. But most people can't tackle it right away so then Java is the language for you to learn before C++. But if all you want to do is make games, then you're doomed with C++ OR Java (Java has really bad graphics and C++ takes years to learn but is really good with games, however I'm sure you don't want to spend 3 years learning C++ right now). I would recommend using Scratch or Alice (Alice can do 3D really well) if all you want to do is games.

Sorry. I use VB too sometimes. It's still a good programming language.
