Please do not post any of this:
* "Why do you want an account there?!"

Finished most basic stuff. :)
Have implemented a menu bar when you move the mouse to the top and a search/replace bar when you move it to the bottom. It's called Write Den.

Edit: http://img245.imageshack.us/img245/9527/rhfjdjejdle.png

Menu bar disappears when you move the mouse back down, obviously.

Perhaps you could implement error checking for such, try to read a file and if it fails pop up a nice friendly message explaining exactly what to do?

I will buy you an SA account if you can make me a simple text-writing program like Write Room for the Mac.
I can do that! :D
I don't have a mac or iPhone, so I don't know the precise behavior of it, but I'm assuming a simple completely full-screen text editor, with a drop-down menu at the top when you move your mouse to it with bold/italic/underline/font/save/exit/etc.
It will require the .NET Framework, is that okay? :)

I'm reasonably sure I'm allowed to post this here. Please delete with great rapidity if not.

I'd like a Something Awful Forums account. (Don't ask why.)
Unfortunately, it requires a credit card, which I don't have.
So! How's about:
I will make any Windows program (or possibly an AGS plugin) in exchange for an SA account gift cert ($9.95).

If you have a proposal, post it here, PM me, or email me and I'll take a look. :)

Please do not post any of this:

* "Why do you want an account there?!"
* "I wouldn't recommend getting an account there, because _______"
* "You don't want an account there."
* "Why can't you use a prepaid card?"
* "Why can't you borrow someone else's card?"
* "Okay! I'd like a 3DS Max clone." (Unless I get to define 'clone'.  := )

I am now tempted to make a game that will offend the most people possible.

Easy. Just make a game saying to the player: "You're the biggest idiot who has ever played this game... Now watch this offensive p0rn:" or something like that.

A Fun Game

Offensive? I wasn't personally, but I wouldnt mind hearing opinions.
I thought that was hilarious :D

Anyway, time to work on Hitler Rape Massacre I think...

#88
The more 'offensive' the content, the more I'll want to play it :D
...although that might be because I'm 15.

Serious answer, I'm pretty much never genuinely offended by games/movies/etc.
What's your idea?

Playing this now. I'm a bit of a grammar nazi, so the constant 'dont's, 'im's, 'doesnt's, incorrect 'its'/'it's', and bad capitalization are kind of putting me off. Found the lack of music until a certain point quite strange. Seems a nice game otherwise. Will edit with more.
Edit 1: Am I supposed to be able to pick up

That orange thing on the desk in the library?

Yeah, I enjoy writing silly monologues and this is the only excuse I get :P
#92
Does that mean a centenarian could date a 57 year old? 43 year age difference :o

(I'm in a bit of a hurry so I don't have time to comment on all of them, sorry about that :( )
I'm going to vote for Steve, mostly because 3D panoramas are damn complicated things to set up so he was pretty ballsy going for it, and he managed it.

[edit][offtopic]Mine's is the second 'non-game' entry I've made for Hourgame Saturday. Maybe I should stop doing that  :P [/offtopic][/edit]

Ten minutes to spare and I even had time to make music for it.
Paint.
Edit: Technically involves PAINT not paintING. Ah well. Also didn't have the stuff to make a video, sorry.

Image File Formats And How They Apply To You
PNG: A very poor file format. Poor compression, limited colours, usually large filesize, will mess up many images. Do not use!
GIF: Better. Perfect colours, supreme compression, and allows cool animation effects (adding a frame that contains an inverted or tinted version of the original and setting it to flick rapidly between them is a great way to show contrast!)
JPEG: An excellent format, especially for small pixel-art images! Even has a built-in anti-aliasing filter!
BMP: One of the best. Most suited to large, detailed images. Use where possible!

There are two main problems with this.
1. No texture.
2. FAR. TOO. BRIGHT. You're not playing hopscotch in the playground! Add shading, add shadows, make it dark!

I fixed it up a little:

No need to thank me! (But please credit if you use it in your game.)

I've been laughing so hard my throat is dry.

Looks good. Lookin' forward to it. :)

Holy carp, awesome!

My vote:
Idea - Al_Ninio. I love conspiracy theories!
Technique - Tier. Very peaceful, makes me want to lie on the bank and listen to the rushing water...
Usefulness - abstauber. Particularly good for something along the lines of the end of 5 Days a Stranger.
