    Honestly unless you've got the money, team and the skills there's no point in pursuing a big project like an Image host, a review site, an arcade. As unless you can provide quality the bigger sites will always knock you down, and I've had that first hand through my millions of projects here.

    Your best bet is to get some cheap hosting (I'd reccomend SimplexWebs. 99p for 2GB space and 200GB Bandwith) and a domain, set up a blog of somesort, maybe host the odd flash game or video, but you're better off starting on a smaller project and building experience than jumping straight into the deepend.

    I get you entirely mate, I was in your shoes a while ago and I started off by designing layouts and joined a Social Network project named Flyxa, I then attempted to setup my own design studio and several other projects haha. Just start off small with a non-habbo blog and build your way up mate

    If you are serious about something and have the skills/knowledge then GO FOR IT, forget money for now, it's not a huge factor until you getter bigger. Everything starts off small and many small projects that are intended to just be small projects end up big (look at Facebook).

    If you're only going to half heartily make a site and work on it then there's no point, but if you really want it to work well and be good then go for it.

    I'm sorry, that is crap. Any project nowadays which has any chance to get big requires funding and a good website to boot. You cannot go off the fairy tail moral speech "You can do anything if you try!" in something like this...

    To start something needs peanuts - if you have the skills to create a website and promote it, then you're on your way. If you have business know-how then that's even better. Money will help, but it is not needed to startup. Facebook didn't have initial funding - did they get investors? If so then it's possible with other websites.

    You CAN be successful if you know what you're doing and really REALLY put your mind to it.

    If you really think you need lots of money to start up something big then you don't know much at all. I don't know much, but I know this. Money will help, of course it will and I'm not disputing that, but it is NOT essential providing you get something up and running that is decent and you know what you're doing. Money can come to you.

    That last sentence is obvious, you still need funding for hosting, domain or whatever, MONEY is essential in starting a website or a business!

    My point exactly. Yes and they cost peanuts, as I said. You are saying it needs big money - and don't say that isn't what you meant as you already said he should buy hosting and a domain and start small!

    Of course money is needed, but not a big amount. You could easily create something for £20 per year. Providing you know what you're doing and you have the skills, big amounts of money are not needed.

    Money isn't needed at all, if you're really dedicated (and cheap) you can find ways around it. Build the site yourself, use a free host (or get friendly with the owner of a hosting company and then ask for a freebie), offer to do work for someone in exchange for a domain, or offer to pay for it with habbo furni or something.
    There's always a way to build a website without spending a single penny.
