mysql - A PHP Dice Roller with Database Read/Write -

i fear i'm biting off project far more advanced realize, make small php app, , don't know begin.

the app needs to:

• roll entire set of d&d dice
• impose results of each roll atop image of it's corresponding die
• generate random validation id
• write roll results, validation id, date , time of roll mysql database
• allow user save (for posting forums) image of rolled dice, displaying validation id.
• allow other users (the dm, specifically) enter validation code , verify rolls, time, , date - prevent dishonesty.

optional things great, fear make project more involved:

• a re-roll preventor of sort (a time delay per ip between rolls, or maybe user sessions in dm can set order in players must roll (the dm could, of course, roll absent players)).

so that's goal, on question: am, essentially, newb. can edit php code, , write simplistic code if have cheatsheet handy. want ask of stackoverflow folks is:

• is challenge should attempt take on limited knowledge? if so, should turn education might me along path - if not, cost-effective method of finding create code me (i'm not looking exclusive, once code created, i'll posting online free , public use)?

this simple. php aspect uses http://php.net/manual/en/function.rand.php , http://ca3.php.net/manual/en/book.mysql.php functions. rest done html/css. need skills well.

to make roll id add auto increment id column in mysql , store dice rolls there.
