Hi, I’m Darren 🤓 My #NoCode journey started back in 2018 with the Thunkable platform. I’ve been making apps, consulting, and sharing tutorials on YouTube since then. Now I’m looking to broaden my expertise to other **#NoCodeApp** platforms, and I have chosen **Glide** as the next one to master, share with my [YouTube channel](https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCHDDjy-6nbgwdrJpSZIfCOA), and make apps for my clients. I actually just released my **1st Glide tutorial** on YouTube if you are interested: [![](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex002/uploads/glideapps/original/2X/0/06b93beca86ae4f1adecb2c3dc99c789f4b5bd76.jpeg "How I Made my Savings Account Tracker in @Glide (My 1st Glide App)") ](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KAkn6Q136sM) My long term goal is to be the **#NoCodeAppGuide** for the new people just entering the space. I want to help them navigate the journey of creating their 1st app and help them discern which #NoCodeApp platform would be best for their project. Cheers! 🍻 ---

Welcome, @Darren_Alderman! I watched the video, it’s excellent—you have a bright career as a Glide videographer ahead of you! One tip: you can configure the formatting on your Sum rollup column, even including the $ prefix. You do not need to make a formatting and template column. ---

You can also search Unsplash directly in the Data Editor when editing an Image column. ---

Yes! I knew I was probably not doing things the “right way”, but I got the job done. 😅 I have much to learn about the platform, but excited to start getting more familiar. Thanks for the tips! ---
