here.
BackTrak, there's a development forum for these kind of topics. Those who are interested in it will read it. Getting more attention is no excuse for putting this in the general forum, or we can just as well delete the other forums and post everything in one.
I'm not sure why the mods let you go with this. I for sure wouldn't.

well, i think one thread in general for something this cool is ok.
but i think the general policy is a misc dev thread, then if there is a question else where that vaguely relates to what you have done, you can then make a post responding to the topic, with a "by the way, did you know i made
this and it will make you happy?"

Hi Cortex,
I understand your point, and the need for the development forums. I initially talked to Tigereye before I posted the first release, and he suggested that I post it in both the General and Development forums. After looking at the number of views in both locations, it was pretty obvious that the audience I was trying to reach was hanging out in the general branch, so for the next version, I just posted into General. I'm very excited about this application, and I would love it if others find it useful and game enhancing as well, so I do hope that you'll allow me a little exuberance. /blush.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid="

I don't.

That's perfectly fine in my books.

Well, if TE suggested to crosspost, then it's obviously okay on this board. I just know that for example in the Usenet, crossposting or posting in the wrong forum is the easiest way to get a bad reputation. But I'm not a mod, so my opinion counts as much as anyone else's.
I thought we had the news items on the front page for that kind of advertising.
