Its not always the Indian posters... fyi, http://www.codeproject.com/KB/cs/imagePanel.aspx[^]
Regards :rose:, Nishu
I didn't say it was "always" the Indian programmers, but go ahead and read into what I said anything you like. You're going to to do that no matter what anyone tells you.

I'm not saying this because I think *all* Indians are terrible at posting articles, but the majority of poorly written articles are, in fact, posted by Indians (or at least this has been the case since the moderation process has been put in place). I know, some of you are going to say I'm wasting my time posting this, but if I don't say what I'm thinking, I tend to get testy, acidic, and/or downright mean. With that out of the way, on with the show. 0) Please find someone that speaks fairly good English to help you with your article. I'm not at all interested in reading an article that includes a high number of punctuation errors, transposed words, incorrect words, and any number of other syntactic errors. I realize English is a difficult language to master, but this is an "English spoken here" website, and you would do well to conform to that standard. 1) Write an actual article to go with your code. Simply posting downloadable source code and having a few lines of text supporting poorly formatted code blocks is NOT an article. 2) Take the time to PREVIEW your article before submitting it. There's a Preview button there, and it takes just a minute or so to verify that your article looks right. 3) When you resize your images to fit within CodeProject limits, VERIFY that the image is still readable. 4) Do NOT re-submit your article if it doesn't immediately appear in the list of articles. There's a moderation process that all articles (posted by bronze/silver members) must go through before they are made available for consumption by the general CodeProject population. 5) Unless your article is relatively long, do not post links to other web sites where "a complete explanation is provided". I really do want to approve more articles than I do, but y'all are making it impossible for me to do. For all you VB programmers out there that are confused by my item numbering scheme, real languages (like C/C++) index lists and arrays starting at 0, so I figured I would extend that tradition to textual lists as well.

And by English I assume you mean the butchered form known as American. Makes me giggle you posted in American English (realise doesn't have a 'z' in).

Tut tut - after lecturing a big group of people who have English as a second language about conforming to English standards, you go out of your way and break from traditional bullet point numbering to upset another group of developers, just based on their language of choice. Can't wait to see how you cope when Chinese becomes the main language of choice on the internet in a few years - hope you have alot of Chinese friends to help you edit your articles! ;)

The first chuckle for the day - I love when Americans start bitching about the use of the English language, and don't start me on date formats. I'd like to take a all those zees and shove them where ... and MS with their bloody date format. And then you realise the US still uses Imperial liquid measurements - Ok I'll bugger off into the Soapbox.
Never underestimate the power of human stupidity RAH

You're an idiot - I didn't make any racist remarks.
