I'll start at the beginning.  I learned everything I know about HTML from htmlgoodies.  I have a decent grasp of html, and now i want to further myself.  What I want to do is create a site where people can upload photos and videos.  Best case scenario I would like it to include user registration and possibly a voting system.  So far all I have come up with is that I need to use php in some fashion.  What I need to know is:

 

What else do I need to learn?

What programs will I need?

Do I need a domain name/host to start or can I do it locally while learning?

If so, can anyone suggest which to hosting service to use?

I want the site to be free, is it going to cost me alot to run?

 

I am not asking anyone to do this for me, I want to learn to do it on my own, I am just a little overwhelmed.  I have a vision of what I want, just not really sure where to go from here.

 

If you have gotten this far, thank you for reading my novel, and any help would be greatly appreciated.
