Fond memories of my earliest 'programming' experiences with VB6. I remember making a currency convertor in it when I was about 10 and thought it was the coolest thing ever. Either that or GORILLA.BAS ;)

I was a little later so my memories are things like dos32.bas, VB6 code to make pr0ggi3s for AOL. 12-14, making punters to boot people off, making l33t phaders for your chat room text (gradient color)... i made a scrambler that got pretty popular-- a chat room game where you competed to unscramble words the fastest. Even made it so it avoided the esay csae of smae fisrt and lsat.

I was a huge asshole back then but it was a lot of fun.
