Forum for the "tech-challenged"??

Post by candence »

I just wanted to write this post on the off chance that there's SOMEBODY out there lurking, or MANY people, who are just like me i.e., LOVE G-FORCE!!!! But so many times have felt too inhibited to ask questions here for fear of looking utterly stupid. You don't have to be a developer or some other high tech entity to enjoy this incredible light-color-sound show! And we have...I mean "I" have questions and just plain things I want to say about what I'm doing with the G-Force, what I'm learning, what I'd like to learn.....and I'll just BET I'm not alone here!

So I just wanted to put the thought out there because I haven't seen any "lay" people on the board and I know we'd probably LOVE to be talking to each other but haven't because it's just plain too intimidating! Everytime I come here it's like I'm on some software developer forum. Try as I might, and I DO TRY, I understand so little of what's going on---being said, etc. Come to think of it, MAYBE I AM the only one here without a computer science degree. If so, please forgive my ignorance and try to forget you ever saw my post....as I slink on out the door ....

I've posted several times about trying to figure out a way to view G-Force with headgear, glasses, etc. with controls at fingertips while laying back on the bed or chair or whatever. I thought I'd have people coming up with all kinds of interesting things they'd done similar to that....or at least had thought about it. But I got very few posts. The best lead I got was from someone (I"m sorry I can't remember your name) who mentioned "iglasses"--- and that looks like a very interesing option but I'm still not sure if I can plug the thing into my PC and then what do I do.....use my earbuds??? Or what? I just dont' know. And someone else mentioned he had somehow managed to project G-Force visuals all over one of his walls. That won't work for me---I'm looking for something that won't bother anyone else. But I appreciated the input.

So...I don't know why my post isn't getting answered as much as I thought it would. And I STILL would love to figure out a solution to my dream of putting on glasses or helmet and being surrounded with my own private G-Force show! That's why I came up with the idea of a non-techie forum. I got to thinking that I must look soooooo ignorant that it would take up too much room and effort to explain these complicated things to me. Either that or no one's actually interested in my project. I find that hard to believe, but of course, that's because I'M INTERESTED IN IT!!! :) So COME ON PEOPLE! If you're not going to help me figure this out then at least say why you're not responding. And if it IS because you're all so far ahead of me in tech-no world that you just don't even know where to begin with a newbie then MAYBE we need a sister forum for the rest of us????? That is...IF I'm not the ONLY one!!! LOL

And oh, I too would like to THANK all you G-Force creators and helpers and elves and so on for this very nice "latest version G-Force" Christmas Present!!!
Your loyal fan,
Candence
