Image objects

I didn't know that before because I never had an AMIGA.

You missed out :) They were great fun, you can get excellent Amiga
emulators (Winaue I think is one) that are capable of running floppy images
of the games, you can emulate any Amiga you want, even how much memory
and/or hard drive it has. Quite fun if you like that sort of thing :)

Sorry, I do not understand...

I thought seeing as Accounting packages are so easy to program, why not
stick one in an image, just for the hell of it! :) That way people could
be charged "per-view" of an image, think of the $$$ Microsoft, there's an
incentive for you!!

Did you have a look if someone else has written a library (maybe a COM
component) do read and display PSD files?

Yeah I'm looking all over the place, I have found C++ code and some dead VB6
code that doesn't work very well. The thing is that the image format is so
complex and not well documented that even commercial implementations don't
work 100%!

I am too young.

Uh oh, I remember them, and you look older than me :-s
I'll have a look for an emulator. Yesterday I set up Windows 3.11 + Visual
Basic 2.0 in an emulator.

Wait, how old are you??

Windows 3.11 in an emulator?? How did you manage that one, I could write
Windows 3.11 in VB.NET in 3 lines of code...

While OperatingSystemStillRunning
If(userActivity() > -1) Then
Call blueScreenOfDeath
Else
Call sleep(5000000)
End if
End While

I'm not even going to comment about Windows 3.11. It was (is?) a cool
operating system. There are some caves that still use it to track Stalagmite
formation.

So why is it that I can remember Amigas, and I'm 17?? Infact I used to have
an Amiga. There was a good version of BASIC on it. I also still have a ZX
Spectrum lying about somewhere....

I think Herfried lived in a cave as a child maybe? As for the ZX spectrum,
please don't say that too loud, you might offend someone. In fact I'll make
an "OE expleter" plugin for me and modify it so it "expletes" ZX spectrum
out of your sentences also ;-)

Windows 3.11 is still cool and I use it to develop in VB2.

Huh... I had my 1st computer in 1998. Computers were very expensive in
Austria.

Just for personal reasons or professional reasons?

Wow, you've done a damn site better than I have then. Ive been programming
since I was 5! I used to have a "Dragon 32" as a kid, you had to write the
majority of the games out from a book, so I managed to pick up bug testing
skills I suppose. Though you wouldn't have thought I have been programming
since 5 with some of the things I come out with, oh well, were not all
perfect!

Lets see, when I was 5 I'd just finished my first operating system....
