Bug FixedMarch 7, 2010
We fixed a bug today that was randomly causing the site to time out. Thank you to everyone who emailed us about this issue.

Some of you also wanted to know if the launch of the Demo Challenge is still on track for April 1. It is and we will have upload functionality linked to user accounts by that time. For those that want to participate in the cheeky pre-launch challenge, email your demos to godvalve@hotmail.com by March 31.

New audio-video tutorialsFebruary 19, 2010
We will be posting new audio-video tutorials in the tutorial section under the build menu. The first one complements our existing win32 article and demonstrates how to create a simple program that launches an empty window. We all had to start somewhere... Expect more to follow.

Article Transition PeriodFebruary 17, 2010
The articles prepared for the previous version of this site are being ported over. This process turns out to be rather more complicated than it should be and so the articles will be in a state of disrepair until the back-end server issues are sorted out. These issues should be sorted out in the next couple of days.

Captcha Obfuscation--February 12, 2010
Naraphim recently suggested to me that the captcha level on the forum might be set too high. Nuttkayc and I sat down and tried to register a couple of dummy accounts with the settings as they were and decided that Naraphim was right. To that effect, I have reduced the captcha settings to a more easily readable level. Hopefully we don't start seeing spam-bots in the forum though.

If you are experiencing difficulty using the forum, feel free to contact me and I'll see what I can do.

Compete in the Demo Challenge pre-launch eventFebruary 10, 2010
The Demo Challenge pre-launch event is now online and will run until March 31. Everyone is encouraged to join in on this event. If you are new to demo programming, head on over to NeHe's site for an introduction to OpenGL. You will find everything you need to get started in his tutorials section.

Quote
For this Demo Challenge, your task is to produce a single effect and bore your audience with it. Literally creating a spinning cube or even producing a single triangle on screen and putting your audience to sleep with it is perfect. You might even try using the same effect in as many ways as you can - just as long as it is the same boring effect.

There you have it. As always, visitors are encouraged to drop by the forum to introduce themselves.
