You are not the only one who is confused. So am I. That is why I asked.
Trough a Google ad link on this forum I stumble on urbanfonts.com. Never heard of, so I go there to have a sniff and see they have a forum. First impression, must be brand new because there are hardly any threads. Then I see that all threads started after May 20, 2006 but some have already more that 35 posts. Not bad for a brand new forum. Curious as I am I also open my other eye and see that these 35 posts all have the same date and are posted within 8 hours. I get more curious and start digging.
What do I find? An excerpt of the former Abstractfonts forum. Messed up a bit and fancy user names but exactly the same posts. I find Liana (l-goldenquill). I find Tørnquist (nicknamed by me as the Viking and occasionally as Tweetybird). I find whole discussions between the three of us. Yet posts by the same person under different names.
So, I wonder; what is this?? So I ask: Alex, what is this urbanfonts forum thing?
The Alex in this question is Alex the webmaster of Abstractfonts.com. Is Alex who buried the old forum. Is Alex Chum.., Mississauga.
So, Alex, I ask again, why is there a forum on urbanfonts.com that is a messed-up copy of a part of this (Abstractfonts) forum?
Compare these:
http://www.abstractfonts.com/forum/thread/30995/7091#post7091
and
http://www.urbanfonts.com/forum/showthread.php?t=3 (ignore the first two posts in this thread). and jump to http://www.urbanfonts.com/forum/showthread.php?t=3&page=2
At the urbanfonts forum
'barrelt' aka 'byson' is hitesh.mehta.
'bullish' [how appropriate] aka 'chris' aka 'dodo' aka 'fox' is me, koeiekat.
'devon' aka 'falcon' aka 'ivan' is l_goldenquill [liana].
'gilman' is Tørnquist [the 'ø' never showed on Abstractfonts, remember the discussion about that?]. - re: is this the new forum?

Of course, I'll have to set up a server when I decide to learn it! :)
I shouldn't be having any trouble with this, if I install on Windows. I was never able to find out where mySQL was installed on Linux, a few months back, so I had to set it up on Windows! :)
Let's see... I have Apache Webserver for Windows, mySQL 3.23 for Windows, and will have to download the PHP stuff from that site. What else will I need to set it up? This is enough, I guess. But will read the manuals later!

First, take a deep breath and calm down.
Next - I'm sure abstractfonts.com has a help section for this. If not - you may want to refer to: http://www.dafont.com/faq.php
It will give you step-by-step instructions - whether you are on a PC or a MAC...
Then have a drink of wine and call in the morning...
P.S. You might want to consider changing your name. If you give yourself a moniker of "idiot" you may be trying to fulfill a prophecy...and live up to it. I'd rather see you as Computer illiterate with the desire to learn to become better and be educated :) - re: computer idiot
