There's some interesting comments and some pretty useless ones in this conversation.

There's a lot of things I didn't know how to do with OSC so I picked up a HUGE book on PHP and I'm still reading it, learning as I go....the annoying thing is that I still can't fathom out classes :'( I am quite literally a PHP and MySQL newbie in every sense of the word. I have never ever touched a programming language before and RDBMS meant nothing.

OSC made me want to learn PHP and MySQL and I want to say thankyou for that. :D
If the dev team had made it a plugin to an existing CMS, forum or whatever then I can guarantee I would only have wanted to learn enough so that I could implement it and nothing more. The fact that it isn't easy to change the design means I was given a reason to learn PHP and MySQL and I'm not complaining, infact I'm happy about it! That's one more thing to put on my Curriculum Vitae (Resume).

For all I know I might become a PHP Guru some time in the future. ;)
