Now that I'm 50, I have moments in my life like these more often than I'd like to admit. 

I won't say that I'm working on yet another MAGS project that I'll never finish... but... 

Downloading now. Playing soon. Voting soon-ish. 

UPDATE: Voted! 

This is becoming a bit worrisome.

I'm genuinely stunned. Larry Vales was the reason I found AGS. What a loss. 

Four hours?    Sweet biscuits, this will have to wait until the weekend!

Looking forward to watching the interview. 

As a child, I looked forward to the day when AI was real and we went into an exciting future with our AI buddies. Now I find myself half a century old and the AIs are being taught how to interact with the world by the denizens of 4Chan. This is not quite the future I had hoped for. 

Voted! 

Those are so cool. It makes me nostalgic for the days of old. 

I still can't get Darkness and Denim to work with my screen-capture software.

How strange. It was made with the best version of AGS available. Surely the inexorable march of time wouldn't leave me behind. 

Voted! I hope I cast a tie-breaking vote somewhere. 

How are you getting along with playing the nominated games and voting?

Going as fast as I can. This is taking even longer than playing all the MAGS games did.   

Thanks, Cat. I would have never discovered that game on my own. What a fun, melancholy experience.

Voted! 

My favorite corner if the internet has returned! 

I like the remains of a more whimsical time, I think software in general used to be more fun, and have more personality, and it's nice to have these bits.

I think if there are new images it will be ok to replace, but not just removing without nothing in place.

I remember a drawing floating on Twitter once that had lots of adventure characters, not sure if solely AGS ones, but perhaps one of those could be used? I also like Babar's idea of an activity to create new artwork.

I second everything in this post. I like the more whimsical aspects of AGS. But that's just me. I'm old. 

Working my way through the stack. Do we have a deadline yet?

How's everyone getting along with playing the games?

Slowly working my way through the stack. 

Thanks for changing my avatar. To clarify, what I meant when I said that it was the same picture was that I tried to use the same santa pic that I was currently using, just to see what the issue was. But when I tried to update my profile from the santa avatar that I was currently using to the exact same santa avatar, it wouldn't let me change it, even though I was trying to link to the same picture I was currently using. Something changed in the forum behind the scenes from when I switched over to santa in early December to when I tried to change the avatar in January. One of the code tubes must be clogged or something? FYI.

In the meantime, my Santa Cow is retired until next Christmas. Hopefully this will be resolved by than. Thanks for your help. 

have you tried changing the file name of the image and see whether it works?

I've tried several different cow avatars. None of them work. They all give the same error. I even tried to use the link for same picture I'm currently using. But I still get the same "HTML tags are not allowed" error.
