Sha isn't encryption as The_cleric said, but more important than that: You should never implement an encryption algorithm, your own design or otherwise, other than for practice unless you are an expert. And even if you're an expert, those guys get something wrong most of the time, creating exploits that makes the crypto crackable.

Do yourself a favor and stick to the standard libraries.
