Very helpful!!

I don't want someone to write it for me I'm just asking for a nudge........ I want to write an application that quickly draws a frame around the outer border of the screen.......that's all.....nothing else. Can I get a tip from someone......or even a 'look here' tip?

Some great advice here! Thank you all........all the way around!!!

But, for a little while now, I REALLY wanted to try to learn to do some stuff in FB. I do a little, I learn a li...

Saw this in a code snippet the other day (following Dim, of course)......what's the 'U' about???

Easily 2 years ago, I spent a lot of time with Lachie's FB Game Newsletter.....tutorials and what-not. I did the one with the little sprite sheet depicting the warrior walking on the green background.
