Yep, they coulda had some of my money, but instead they have zip from me, and I have a T-Shirt.

Ya know it's bad when your cable bill exceeds your car payment or grocery bill. I saw a commercial the other day (forgot about what), and they stated/claimed that 'being connected' is now a basic human necessity! That pissed me off. When I go for walks or bike rides, no ear-buds, or Smartphone in my hand - I look at my surroundings and think. Point being, just another step in brain-washing us to think we need a lot of things we don't. Don't get me wrong, I have withdrawal symptoms if I can't get Online. But I don't have a Facebook or Twitter account! In reference to your statement about competition, when I lived in San Antonio, TX, Time-Warner was pretty much your only viable option. I had the ol' 3-way bundle with 'em. I was thinkin' of getting a MagicJack (phone service), but when I called Time-Warner and asked how eliminating the phone from my bundle would affect my bill, they said it would go up, because I didn't have the full bundle.

Pillars of Eternity was not the end. Yesterday, Obsidian announced its partnership with Paradox is continuing and that the two are making a new isometric CRPG, Tyranny. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yc-WqIRNDKY

CRYENGINE I can't use it (I'm sure it's too complicated for me), but for you developers, the price is right!

Here's an article from The Verge that lists the prices of the games.

I hear ya, Derek. It doesn't fit in my income bracket, but as always, newer electronics prices will fall. Who knows, it could be a good bit less expensive by Christmas.

Gigabit Service No caps if ya sign a contract.

DOS76 said Argh! Installing update 12 of 194 (Not including Windows 10) I guess this is going to take all night if I didn't have diabetes I'd go grab a Snickers. Yikes, 12 of 194, plus Windows 10! Are you back in action, yet?

Cadet Stimpy said Not so much... In fairness, that darkest spot isn't that dark - there's a bit of a shadow there. But as you can see, it didn't come 'completely clean' by any means.

What do you suggest I do, Brad, to insure accurate colors? I going to my local 'T-Shirt Embroidery Shop" soon, and the proprietor wants a JPG or PDF (?) file format for the logo. At this shop, the 'set-up fee' for a logo is about 25$. But it will remain 'on file', so once the setup-fee is paid for, no one else needs to pay for it, but only for the T-Shirt and embroidered emblem. Anyway, I wanna make sure it's just right, in case any other Forum members wanna order though this shop, so they can avoid their own set-up fee.

SentaiBrad said Yea most people don't realize the hours and time that goes in to making games or software. I've been developing games off and on the last 4 years in something like RPG Maker for a similar reason you've stated... and even then it's still super difficult. I know nothing of this first-hand, as do fromlostdays and Brad (except for the Website I dabbled with a couple of decades ago, and the seemingly endless hours of working on it), but my research (and from fromlostdays' and Brad's testimony) reveals there are insane amounts of person-hours needed to develop even a mediocre game. So, I say "hats off" to game developers at any level!

I know! 640K of RAM? What the hell could you run with that? I'm currently running about 32 million K of RAM (32GB). If my math is correct, I have 500 times more RAM than a 640K system.

Close-up of left index finger knuckle. Owner claims he's not rabid. We'll see, I suppose... It's probably pretty lame to post this crap, but since I'm retired, gettin' bitten by a dog is a day of excitement for me.

RGB, I think. When I'm, say, hovering over a blue section, aside from the coordinates of the cursor, in the lower-right corner it says: (R:59,G:190,B:239,O:255) -- Image: 4000 x 667 x RGB - 8 bits/channel Would this clearly indicate it was operating in the RGB space?

This stuff is way outta my league, but I believe it's very good news for Gamers in general. GPUOpen

I kept two original, old-school game boxes. One was Doom, the other, DoTT! The IBM Reference Card What was in the box? Here's a small sampling: Fun postcard, Alone in the Dark Code Book, pretty dried-up lizard. P.S. The color on the box (top & bottom) may be a bit off due to some faint tree branch shadows coming through the window.

SentaiBrad said So if you need the color values: Blue: #3bbffe Purple: #bb4ab7 Yellow Green: #ceed07 Red Orange: #ff4900 Ah, crap. Guess I'd appreciate some technical assistance with this logo. I opened the PNG file in Post #54 with Corel PaintShop Pro 8 and ACDSee Ultimate 9 and got these results: (The RGB values were 'calculated' by Google, and the Logo values are what PSP and ACDSee said the color was when I hovered over it). Blue [3bbffe] - RGB 59,191,254 Blue [3bbffe] - Logo 59,190,239 Purple [bb4ab7] - RGB 187,74,183 Purple [bb4ab7] - Logo 148,66,145 Yellow/Green [ceed07] - RGB 206,237,7 Yellow/Green [ceed07] - Logo 242,229,0 Red/Orange [ff4900] - RGB 255,73,0 Red/Orange [ff4900] - Logo 233,88,28 I don't understand why I'm not getting the colors exactly as Brad set them. I suppose I could just change the colors to what they're supposed to be...but it's baffling me.

This is older, but I finally found it (I had e-mailed to my Dist List years ago). I wonder how good he is now? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-zSgCKhV8cY P.S. You may recognize the soundtrack - The same one that was used in the kayaking video I posted a while back. Here's the same guy riding on ice: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=610_4hLEBuk

I just heard an ad on the radio for CustomInk. Don't know squat about them, but perhaps they're a viable SpreadShirt competitor.
