Definition of Pixel Art28th July 2009 
Jayenkai and I had a slight squabble in the Mud Chat, regarding the definition of pixel art. Turns out we have two different views on what can be categorized as pixel art, and what cannot.We can both agree to that this is pixel art. [center] (Image.gif)*snip* |

QOTD - C++ Graphics Libraries28th July 2009 SDL has no hardware accelerated graphics built-in, so no alpha-blending, rotating or scaling. At least not at a manageable speed in realtime. Then he's better off with the aforementioned SFML. I have some issues with Irrlicht, but I suppose that it's work*snip* |

3D calculation28th July 2009 First off, no to MDX. It is old, buggy and unsupported. This no is even more reinforced when there is SlimDX, which is an excellent and more complete version of DirectX for .NET than MDX ever was. I'm not sure how those X/Y/Width/Height parameters relate *snip* |

QOTD - C++ Graphics Libraries28th July 2009 HGE is in my opinion a pretty bad graphics library. SDL is great for interfacing with OpenGL without having to dabble with the intricacies of the Windows API, but its built-in graphical capabilities are fairly limited. I would recommend SFML. I haven't use*snip* |

Where be the avvies?28th July 2009 Just felt like getting a change. It's nice to get a new one every once in a while. [edit]I was originally intending to tell a story with my avabar, changing it every week, but I don't know if I'll bother to do that ;)[/edit] |

Where be the avvies?28th July 2009 I see a lot of members here without avatars/avabars. Making one takes you about five minutes, and it gives others an easy way of identifying your posts and connecting them to you. I tend to subconsciously see members without an avatar as just another anony*snip* |

Free Design27th July 2009 I have some puzzle game ideas, but I bet you're sick to death of those already. I suppose you could take my old box stacking game and do something with it. Sorry, I haven't been very creative lately either. |

converting colours...27th July 2009 Why would you want to use the websafe palette? Is IE6 being the bottleneck once again? YouTube is phasing out support for that browser, so I think it's fairly safe for everyone to do that by now. |

A welcoming screen for the uninitiated27th July 2009 Perhaps there should be a small close button in the corner? Then it can still be that big and not cover all of the content which shows that the community is active. |

A welcoming screen for the uninitiated25th July 2009 I'm sorry for not being more clear. What I really wanted to get through was the purple box in the middle; something to catch the attention of visitors. Ignore the design at the moment. |

Syntax Bomb dead, Sat 24th July 2009!22nd July 2009 Ouch. I was never a member there, but that's horrible. It might lead to a couple of members moving over here -- and they are most welcome -- but it's never fun to see a site pass away. |

3D Websites21st July 2009 WebKit now supports 3D transformations in CSS, which means that it soon will be in Safari and Google Chrome, if not already in there. In a couple of years, when this stuff becomes standard (and probably immensely annoying), SoCoder might be in 3D. Let's ho*snip* |

Debugging basics14th July 2009 Was talking in the Mud Chat, and realized that there might be people here who don't use a debugger in their C++/C#/Java/whatever projects. If you feel that that last statement was directed at you, then you must click the link. It's really elementary knowle*snip* |

Exercise!13th July 2009 I just finished my round a couple of hours ago :) I find that it helps to have a specific track you always run on. Keeps you motivated, and gives you a gist about how much you've got left. When running on a machine, you don't really get the same feel for h*snip* |

Exercise!13th July 2009 I used to go to a gym, but nowadays I only run (~8 km) every Monday. Also, I occasionally play basketball with some friends, but that is not as regularly. Do you ever move your butt away from the chair, go out, and do something physically exhausting, or i*snip* |

New PC Deal Discussion12th July 2009 My HP laptop also suffered from heating problems. I doubt it's a brand-related issue, because I've heard that it's a rather a common problem among laptops. I bought an Xpad. Seems to solve it. |
