Re: Brexit day.

Great program, as usual

some time ago I did a tiny program to draw (pixelated) flags. Here a pretended similar flag as yours.

Edited: Pressing button 1 you may draw your own flag that will be saved as a gif.

Re: Windows graphics tutorial

Hello. If we want painting this kind of Sphere flake, I have given a new twist. You can call me a cheater if you want. Here three versions: - The first one, the original. According to my proofs, around 20 seconds to execute. Executable of 38 kb. - The second one, with traps, although it can be sharp...

Re: Windows graphics tutorial

@UEZ Not bad, the difference is better apreciated increasing the window size. The -O 3 option is really good. My first version takes about 4-5 seconds (I think) even creating the ppm file, I think a bit faster than dodicat's version, which seems to be a bit faster than my line by line version. This ...

Re: Windows graphics tutorial

That's nice but I have some comments: - It's not a good idea to define a background color in wndclass, otherwise the system will automatically want upgrade the window and we don't want this since it may produce flickering. - As I have said before, it is not a good idea to place the calling to the pa...

Re: Some Variations of a Binary Fractal Tree

Interesting, you passed the hdc to the tree subroutine to draw the gdi line. I did it in tinyc and asm, but didn't know how to do it with fb. Thank you.

Re: Windows graphics tutorial

Ah, that's good music. I like many styles though I'm more on techno. I'm always open to hear new music :) and that link has good ones too.

This link is from a piece of a Milk inc concert. I never heard such a beautiful way to play a trumpet.

Re: Some Variations of a Binary Fractal Tree

@BasicCoder, the tree is drawed using lines, to add a texture to any object of it, it would be needed to modify the program' structure. Instead of painting with lines, maybe we should calculate the border points, for example for the trunk, divide it in triangles and then using this triangles to add ...

Re: Some Variations of a Binary Fractal Tree

In GDI RGBA has a maximum of 0xFFFFFF = 16,777,215, each main color goes from 0 to 255 = FF being A = 0. Even in the case of A = FF we'd have 0xFFFFFFFF = 4,294,967,295 Being 2^32 = 4,294,967,296 So, using uint is not only enough but the correct, even in the case of 64 bits, that RGBA still has a ma...
