I'm looking to create a complex Steam API Forum.
If someone could point me in the right direction, that would be great. I know lots of web development, but I don't even know where to start as far as integration with OpenID and Steam API. If someone would like to help develop a site like this, I am willing to pay.
All help is much appreciated, thank you!

I use this for the login and openID to work, pretty simple to set up. Just get your api key and replace it in the config.

Awesome, works great, thank you. I need some help customizing a few things about it. I mean, I know how to use it, but I'd like to make it so that I can get fields from my gmod player database to display using the Steam ID of the user that logs in through Steam Auth.
For Example:
They log in, and I want to display the amount of points they have on our gmod servers (it's in my database). So I would like to use the SteamID of the account that they log in with to locate which row they are in my player table on the database so that I may draw specific fields from the table and display (echo) them onto the page.
So it'd be my method of showing players how many points they have when they log in, things like that. The only problem is, I don't know how to use the SteamID they log in with to retrieve their info on the database. Can somebody assist me in doing this, possibly show me how this can be accomplished? All help is appreciated, thank you! :)

You should look into general database access with your environment and your kind of database.
The precise way to do it really depends on the precise framework you're using, so without more information it would be difficult to help.
