Welcome!

Well, first ever post. Here's my story so far: I became interested in Chess a few months ago, and have learnt basic strategy, tactics, the most common endgames and a few openings, such as King's indian attack and Dutch defence. I am mainly an attacking player, and try to control the center as much as possible. I usually play defensivly against much higher rated opponents. I can look to about 5 moves ahead, and sometimes trap my opponents into surrendering a major piece. I am currently trying to join a local chess club, in order to advance my game and learn more advice from coaches.
Well that's where the present comes in. I would appreciate strategic advice and maybe a few opening advice?
Here's my main openings:
White:                                      Black:
King's pawn                             Sicilian Defence
Stonewall                                 Dutch Defence
King's Indian attack (KIA)       King's Indian Defence (KID)
Ruy Lopez                               Nimzo-Indian Defence
English Opening
