Happy birthday Ben!
I'd buy you a beer if there wasn't half a world between us 

"You can right-click the colour palette (in 256-colours mode) to export it to or replace it."

"Click the pulldown menu at the top of a script to easily navigate through it."

Not sure how to phrase this, but:
"Use #DEFINE to make AGS recognise a word as a value. Example: #DEFINE Left 1  will make AGS recognise the word Left as the number 1."

Small update: The writing competition will start when the grandiose writing competition is finished.

Hey I've never gotten a trophy for anything, I've had stuff published(unpaid), I suck at sports, science, maths, coding and drawing so I guess YES but seriously for the comp it doesn't matter!

Only teasing   I'll see what I can do.

Will the winner of the comp get to choose the next subject and will there be any trophies involved, I ask that because so many of the others have them and it could just be one that never changes, also will there will runners up?

My idea is to have first, second and third places. Winner chooses next topic.
You really want a trophy to put in your signature?

I pm'ed Andail about this and he basically said yes, but wait til after the end of the group writing compo, so have patience people.

If you're referring to the writing competition, there might be a slight conflict, since I pm'ed Gilbot yesterday and he might not have known about this.

I'm basically tired of people talking about writing comps over and over again. There's obviously interest, someone PM a mod already!

Since I'd also like more writing comps, I PM'd a mod and got the green light.

The basic idea will be this:
A subject will be given, write a story of around 200-350 words about this subject.
The competition will last two weeks: 12 days to enter, 2 days to vote.

All you fledgling writers keep an eye on the competition thread, I'll post the first FORTNIGHTLY WRITING COMPETITION in a few days.

no knowledge to finish but just enough patience to start.

That goes right into the first place of my favourite AGS forum quotes.

EDIT: Because it applies to every newbie and if you have enough patience you'll gain knowledge. Just in case you were thinking I'm making fun of you, I'm not.

I plan on writing, drawing, and animating for a living, all at once or seperate works, it doesn't matter, and I believe that making video games in general uses all three, so this will be a great start.

Sounds like adventure games are just for you! Welcome aboard!
