Holy Lack Of Updates Batman!

It seems I have been missing out on posting for a past few days. I've been uber busy with programming stuff for other people I haven't really had time to work on Lucid lately. These include a PHP script to generate an RSS feed for $17, a complete website to view artist information and pictures, and a calculator done in C#.

I did, however, do a little more work on the GUI system in Lucid. You can now use sprites as GUI objects. I don't want to waste (?) more time on the GUI system though, so I'll complete the basic elements needed to create an in-game menu and then I'll move onto bigger and better things. You can now take screenshots with the F12 key as well. They are saves as screenshot-i.bmp in the program directory.

Also, the sprite engine has seemed to stop working sadly. When you choose a different tile for a sprite and attempt to rotate it, it doesn't render the rotated tile image. Could be a number of things and I'll have a better look at it sometime next week.

That "rejected" thing is funny, and very very very sick.

... Your anus is bleeding?

Yes, because menu systems are just so much fun! [smile]. Designing them isn't really fun. I have some ideas laid out for the menu system and a message box type thing.
