I think flash can use java stuff.. java is a good programming language. :)

Certainly not the best, but good none the less.

Yeah but it only costs about $2 to make the shoes in the first place.
(including labor charges) They just want to stuff their wallets. It takes
no more money to have that kind of bot then it does what they have now, so
why charge more? Why not just add a new feature into the SDK? I think the
new price increases should take care of the labor charges for implementing
new SDK features.

$2 to make the shoe, not to research and develop it. That's a whole
different division. Still it probably wouldn't take much more editing of
the sdk to allow it. I think that's what this is about.. to allow people
who own their own worlds better control over it? Who knows, I don't see it
happening though, along with the linux sdk/browser :\

Well don't change the windows defaults :) Your internal text box shouldn't
really be any other color but white since a lot of programs use it.
Wouldn't red be kinda icky for that box?

I don't follow that. It didn't mess mine up with dark blues and blacks,
this might be a video card problem.

Dim the monitor :). If you're talking with someone on many of the IM
clients, you can usually change the background inside the IM field in your
preferences. (how does a blind person see what he's typing and what you
respond with?? try a dark blue with yellow instead of red)

AW is infinately more complex then a standard IRC client. You can probably
zing off an IRC clients in a couple of days, but a program like AW takes
years upon years to develop.

A couple of days ago I read some yellow on white.. I have great eyesight so
it's not a problem for me. I said *dark*-blue exactly for that reason, so
you could read the bright blue highlighted hyperlinks. It should work out
fine. Or maybe choose a medium gray, and change your displayed text to a
white color, that is the type I have. :) (works fine in linux and in
Windows)

Longer then you think to implement these things. Windows programming is a
pain in the butt no matter what you use to do it. And on the scale of a
software like AW.. it's bound to take a couple of weeks.

Not all video cards are 3d graphics cards. But all 3d graphics cards are
video cards :). I didn't have a problem and I have a very very bad 3d
graphics card. So it's my opinion that it's indiginous to your system
specs.

You can't see black on white? In the case of an IM client, you're forced to
see what colors they want you to see, unless you have an overide option.
Few clients have that.

That's a great idea. I'd love to see that. Even if AW doesn't do it,
maybe a bot programmer could make a bot to do it?

Hmm, what about if the fetch script creates a registry entry when the model

I think it's whenever an object is created, it checks to see if there's a
registry entry. Maybe Ananas could add onto his fetch script for registry
support (scans the registry and if the object isn't there it adds it with
those wild funky names :) ). Of course, does anyone have a use for it?

Or create shift off doesn't allow you to pass through it in anyway.. so
basically if the area is within a "box" with create shit off, you can't get
into it. It'd take a lot of work to do to make it work though.

That in 3.3 (even though it's still beta) that the user who owns the world
has control over if it's displayed on the world list.

Possibly offensive places should be deteremined by the administrators. (ie
Gor worlds are not suitable to anyone not an adult and thus should not be
displayed)
