Hello,
I'm very new to Perl Monks as well, but have posted a few times on the site and I have to say that this is without doubt the fastest place to get help on the net. Everyone is really helpful and I can't speak highly enough of it, so well done to you all. I only wish I could offer some advice and help to others, but as yet I have a hard time even understanding some of the posts! Oh well someday hopefully it will all become clear!

So thanks, and has anyone thought about updating the design of this site at all? I mean it's very functional, but the visual experience leaves a little to be desired...

But really great site though and thanks to everyone on here who's helped me in the past.
