    Didn't take more than four hours to get him to show himself... His report: "I'm having trouble selecting a camo pattern." That was the entire content of his message.

        The camo patterns must be done really well if you can't even see them! ;P Seriously though, I've had similar issues with users. All they tell you is "The program is giving an error" and then they expect you to fix it. :doh:

            I think he missed the part of the disclaimer that said you have to be able to read, and comprehend what you read.

              Just reply:

              Standard Paddedwall Free Software Disclaimer

              As with most software that I write for myself, the key thing to remember is that I wrote it for myself, and you just happen to be lucky enough to benefit from my desire to write this code and then give it away for FREE (the key word here). This means that as a general rule, I'm the person whose opinion matters most to me. I'm the laziest redneck you'd ever want to meet, but if something breaks in the code, I'll see about fixing it (I personally hate it when something doesn't work as advertised). I'm usually pretty good about maintaining code, but let's face it, sometimes there's simply something more interesting (or important) to do. You won't get personal notices that the software's been updated unless you reported a bug that I've fixed (and one of these days, I'll provide a way for you to report bugs). That means you're going to have to come back here every once in a while and check to see if there's a new version available. No warning labels have been included with this software. I cannot be held responsible if you (or one of your children) somehow manages to swallow the zip file, or if you develop a rash, pustuous growth, or sprout additional appendages or orifices after applying the ZIP file to some part of your body. If you question your own ability to read, or to comprehend what you read, do NOT download the software. If you're from another country (or even THIS country) and you don't speak English, that's cool, but I'm NOT going to internationalize this software, so I suggest that you either learn English, or find someone that will translate this stuff for you. I know, this all seems somewhat harsh, but I honestly don't have time to coddle whiney little bitches. Even if I *had* the time, I still wouldn't do it, so cowboy up or go away. If you're still interested in downloading and using this software, click the Download link in the menu at the top of this page. Remember, it's absolutely free, and I'm not taking donations.
