Finally my article viginity is lost.....

I'm a big boy now! :) Just posted my first ever article. Couldn't have done it without the help from several folk here at Codeproject. especially Rick Shaub[^] who helped me get to grips with winforms threading. Check it out here. Batch Image Resizer[^] Any constructive critisism is always welcome....

Excuse me, but what is a "viginity"? :laugh: Now, and more seriously, congrats for the first article, but I've not been able to read the article as the link is taking you to a non correct place... :sigh:

Dictionary definition of it. Did you honestly not know what virginity is? :doh:
I know you believe you understood what you think I said, but I am not sure you realize what you heard is not what I meant.

I guess that everyone knows what it is... ;P But I was asking about "viginity" not "virginity" ;) I know it has been a terribly bad joke...

Yes, we know what virginity is. But did you honestly not know how to spell it? :doh:

I misread the spelling mistake ;)

Damn it! :doh: So I didn't uncheck the work in progress box. Obviously my virginity wasn't that important to me in the first place or I'd have spelt it right. I'm now out of composing status and into pending status. To be honest with you I'm not sure what that means. The whole submission process isn't all that intuitive. I just hope it's all worth it now.......

It means that we get to kill it off if we don't like it; so the workflow, in this case, goes: Composing > Pending > Decomposing.

Well, we know one thing - he's no pirate because he spelled virginity with the appropriate ARRRRRR.

I fail to see the point of the article. It's just a bunch of so-so code. It also doesn't work properly with XP. The Windows7Tools class instantiates an instance of TaskbarManager outside the constructor if block (before you know whether Windows 7 is there.) SaveRecentFolders doesn't check if _recentFolders is null. The article doesn't display properly in Firefox 2.x

Way to keep your cool. I thought Joe's opinion was a bit harsh. You're article could use a little polish, sure, but it seems like you are well on your way. Just look at the feedback people leave at the bottom of your article and I'm sure you'll get your article looking great in no time. :)

So you think asking for a critique means all you want is someone to kiss your ass? I gave you specific glaring problems with your code and ignored all the structural problems. An article, whether here or elsewhere, should have an explicit point, not just be a code dump. What principle are you teaching? Why should someone suggest this article to someone else? Edit: To add from Code Project guidelines: - Is the goal of the article clear? - Could the article help someone in their day-to-day work?

I fail to see how I am being a bit harsh. Coddling someone does them no good and in this case does the code project community no good. There are already too many code-dump articles, we don't need more. The Code Project guidelines include: - Is the goal of the article clear? - Could the article help someone in their day-to-day work? This article satisfies neither of these goals and pretending they do won't help anyone who is visiting Code Project to learn a specific algorithm or technique.
