Look, there are 3 main types of articles: 1. Research/Reference, which are used to, like you said, learn new things and discover other strategies or coding problems. 2. Learning, which can be used to help learn a certain language or how to do something in a certain language. 3. Code/App, which are articles on how to create a game or a program or post an app. And by using these articles, you can take the code and tweak/rewrite it for those who don't want to develop their own, or who just want to use the app. For me, someone who's learning C# (but still stuck with VB), find it a useful learning game by seeing the techniques that he used. Plus, it's a cool remake of a classic 80's game.

Look, the kid just asked why he was getting voted down. Jon gave what I thought was a good opinion about it. I responded too. No need to get all defensive about it. Feel free to ignore the advice.

Well, a quick scan through and there isn't much explanation. It is mostly a source code dump onto an HTML page. The source needs to be broken down and explained better than that. If I'm looking for a technique do do something then it might be there, but how would I know? I would have to spend a long time looking for it.

The screenshot looks like you only did have 16 colors available and then picked out the worst of them.

Ah, the joy of being the first with a Nokia 3310 at primary school, and everyone wanted to play Snake 2 on it... I still use a 3310 now (my third one), haven't moved much forward in 6 years. ;)

As we all know, programmers rarely make good designers. And I doubt many designers make good programmers :) I know dozens of shortcut keys in Photoshop, but unfortunately that doesn't make me a great designer :sigh:

Because it's just a list of the source code. There's no explaination of what the code does, or why you did things the way you did, or anything. It's supposed to be an ARTICLE. Articles explain things.. You didn't do that.

Interesting that you're answering for him. Or is this another moniker in your list? Your experiences reported are awfully close, even to include the same referencing. Your dialog sounds like your talking to yourself. *Disclaimer - I know I could be full of it, but this is just how it appears.
