Hi Mike. Good luck, I'm sure you'll find this place a useful resource.
Oh, and the General Discussion Forum belongs to me, :x
Re: Hi I'm Mike and I'm from Canada
Ok thanks and where do I request fourm hosting?
I just want to know.
Re: Hi I'm Mike and I'm from Canada
Good question. Theres none provided for free unfortunately.
You can:
1)Use a free web hosting company that supports PHP & MySQL such as Lycos/Tripod, and prepare yourself to see Ad Banners.
2)Befriend someone who has some PHP-supported webspace & a spare MySQL database going. These are rare to find.
3)Pay for some hosting 
If you choose the Lycos option, the only bad part is the banners on the right hand side, which you learn to ignore after a while. If you need any help getting set up let me know.

HURRY! It'll be worth a lot to me, I have about 4 accounts with them! Hehe
Re: Hi I'm Mike and I'm from Canada
Ok thanks. I'll think about it.
I really don't like lycos/tripod
Re: Hi I'm Mike and I'm from Canada
No-one does. But its free.
I think I'm getting some hosting for my birthday
Re: Hi I'm Mike and I'm from Canada
Beat you to it:
Re: Hi I'm Mike and I'm from Canada
Which one should I have lycos or tripod?
Re: Hi I'm Mike and I'm from Canada
I think they are the same. For what its worth, I signed up through Lycos.
Re: Hi I'm Mike and I'm from Canada
Could I have the link to lycos/tripod?

Re: Hi I'm Mike and I'm from Canada
Actually, paid hosting isn't that expensive. You can find decent hosting (as in better than free) for as little as $3 a month. You can here in Sweden at least. I'm guessing this applies to Canada as well.
Welcome Mike! :)

Re: Hi I'm Mike and I'm from Canada
If you must get a free host, then go with some one who requires you to write a paragraph on what you sites about. That way, they have less spaming users who sign up for 20 acounts, and never use them, and more space and services for the reall users.
And here is a link to how to thwart Free Web Server pop-ups. (Hope I don't get into trouble by posting this!) http://www.cexx.org/diepop.htm
