Greetings from another new member

Hello, my name is Craig. I am a new member of the e14 community and am excited to be here. I am interested in electronics, technology, systems, and programming. I am no expert by any means but am eager to learn as much as I can from community members and make some cool stuff!

    Hey, everyone has to start somewhere. Don't let yourself get discouraged when you see a great project. Let it inspire you! I feel you with the pictures. For years I've been trying to work on being better about taking pictures of my projects in progress...or...ya know....at all. I look forward to your posts!

    Hi Craig,

    rctho Your location won't affect road test eligibility. There are other active members out in Western Canada. Check out some of the successful road test proposals on the forum to get a feel for what works. You can edit your proposal until the submission deadline. Good luck.

    Hi Craig,

    If it is about something I am doing I usually post as a Blog post.  This does not require the choice of a category or a place. Otherwise I will post as a discussion and choose a location or category that fits the subject. If it is a question be sure to check the question box as this will attract more attention. Many of us follow most of the  groups and categories so that anything posted anywhere comes across our active stream. You may want to go through the list and select the groups, topics and categories that are of interest to you and follow them. Then when you view all activity the things recently posted to those areas will be on your activity stream.

    John
