Hi!

   I'm going to start mining, and I thought maybe I should post about it before I start to see if I missed anything, or to get any advice.

Advice: Read the forum rules!

I've read it already.
I posted it in general mining, instead of another, because I planned on posting updates on the general mining process. Not only one aspect of it.
Also, I'm starting with Bitcoin. Not Ether.
Unless, you wanted to point my attention on something else?

Well you didn't pay attention then.  Your talking about mining Bitcoins and altcoins with altcoin hardware.  Bitcoin difficulty is way too high to mine with GPU's regardless of your electricity costs.  Pools will ban your GPU miners because they take up the same amount of pool resources as an entire Peta-hash range ASIC mining farm with no benefit to the pool or miners.

So your best bet is to follow the forum rules and post in the altcoin section, where this thread belongs, and mine altcoins with your current hardware and then buy some ASIC's with your rewards and then start mining Bitcoin.

Good Luck.
