Well, I have an idea for a standalone application that will be very heavily database driven (MySQL actually). I was just wondering what I should look for in someone to work with for making the application. Hence, I wouldn't be learning anything :) Just trying to find out what skillset I...

Hello everyone. I'm a database guy and I have some ideas I'd like to discuss about GUI programming. First off - which OS, if any, do you think is easiest to program GUIs for (Windows, Linux, OSX, etc.)? Which of the above create the best GUIs, if different? Would a cross-platform...
