Do you have the image file you used for the stickers, and then I can print my own out, thanks. www.justanotherturn.com |

My memory is foggy, but I seem to remember something similar being done on The Daily WTF where readers could mail in something cultural or local and a mug or something would be mailed back. It was essentially a trade. We might offer something similar to pay Mark back for the good will. Maybe I can mail him a poutine because in my experience from visiting in the past couple of years, Toronto doesn't seem to have gotten that revolution yet... -- acc.js | al4anim - Allegro 4 Animation library | Allegro 5 VS/NuGet Guide | Allegro.cc Mockup | Allegro.cc <code> Tag | Allegro 4 Timer Example (w/ Semaphores) | Allegro 5 "Winpkg" (MSVC readme) | Bambot | Blog | C++ STL Container Flowchart | Castopulence Software | Check Return Values | Derail? | Is This A Discussion?

I am not, nor have I ever, been anything more than an occasional lurker on Reddit. It has never appealed to me as a particularly useful means for communication, though I do derive pleasure from subsets of the occasional thread that becomes viral. I think you're the only person that I have ever knowingly encountered that is a hardcore Reddit user. -- acc.js | al4anim - Allegro 4 Animation library | Allegro 5 VS/NuGet Guide | Allegro.cc Mockup | Allegro.cc <code> Tag | Allegro 4 Timer Example (w/ Semaphores) | Allegro 5 "Winpkg" (MSVC readme) | Bambot | Blog | C++ STL Container Flowchart | Castopulence Software | Check Return Values | Derail? | Is This A Discussion?

I don't really want to put it on this laptop. I imagine this laptop will decide to randomly die in the next year... again. for the third time. Motherboard has been replaced twice. *sigh* So I'm keeping both of them pristine for a while, till I find a good place. -- |

Got mine! Thanks a ton Mark! Too bad I don't have a good laptop for this just yet... "For in much wisdom is much grief: and he that increases knowledge increases sorrow."-Ecclesiastes 1:18 |

[posted moved from other thread] I GOT MINE! It's the first letter I've ever received from someone from Canada! I'm kind of blown away by how happy that makes me. It really makes my day! I feel like a little kid again. I've got a picture of the envelope... but I'm after I black out all the sensitive address information... I don't know if they'll be anything left to post. Not sure if I should put my sticker on anything yet though. I'm (hopefully) moving soon and I don't want to attach it to something that will get damaged or thrown away. p.s. THANKS MARK -----sig: |

Aren't the graphics in some wiki about Allegro mascot candidates? I might print out mine from there.

I just upgraded my home computer CPU to an AMD FX-8370. The CPU fan can be very loud but other than that, it's been a beautiful upgrade. I had NO IDEA that I could double my framerate by upgrading my CPU of all things. Before, if I screen captured a game, I had to dump the frame capture rate and reduce the size (even using Open Broadcasting Software, which uses GPU acceleration for capture). Now, I can run full 1080p, with no downsampling, and still hold 60 FPS in Styx: Master of Shadows with the SAME video card. Videocard is GTX 560 SE. I'm planning on getting a GTX ~970 and a 4K TV soon if the "move" doesn't completely bankrupt me. I want to experiment with 4K and explore what's possible. -----sig: |

Alternatively, scotch tape. Such a shop would be neat, Mark, but also probably underutilized. My girlfriend appears to have moved my envelop. -- acc.js | al4anim - Allegro 4 Animation library | Allegro 5 VS/NuGet Guide | Allegro.cc Mockup | Allegro.cc <code> Tag | Allegro 4 Timer Example (w/ Semaphores) | Allegro 5 "Winpkg" (MSVC readme) | Bambot | Blog | C++ STL Container Flowchart | Castopulence Software | Check Return Values | Derail? | Is This A Discussion?

I'd say go for it. Most people don't even try. If the risks and investment are small, you really have nothing to lose. You'll have a fun little adventure to remember the rest of your days. That being said, I'd "imagine" (but maybe I'm wrong!) that stickers would be purchasable at most "we make t-shirt" kinds of places. -----sig: |

Of course, he's already pretty close to me so I'm not sure what I could send him...
If you ask for gravy on your fries, much like in Michigan, they look at you weird... 
It's not even Canada down there.
Miranda has a hot glue gun if you need it.
What's that - four days? Not bad
