Hello, and welcome aboard! As others have said, it's never too late.
In fact, you've probably picked an excellent time to join. Things usually pick up here in the fall, as summer ends, school starts up, the weather gets cooler, and people have a bit more time indoors on the computer.
Heck, even the joker than runs this place (me) wasn't around much in August, he was too busy shooting! So were a lot of the other folks who frequent the forum. But pretty soon more of us will be here and active.
