Just a quick update...
Still working for openFrag, if you were wondering, which is pretty fun.
I've been largely working on designing and inserting GUI elements that are needed in the game, which is probably the best thing I can offer at the moment, sort of an out-of-the-box experience :)

But I'm planning on moving on to different bits of code, soon, I hope, as soon as I finish up the rest of the much needed GUI elements.

I can honestly say that, I was really happy when I got to commit an actual change into the openFrag game.
This is probably due to the fact that up until now, I wasn't really programming/developing a game, I was researching, leading, planning and probably every possible thing except actually developing a game.

Anyway have a good week...

Quick Plug

Aside from being a part of openFrag, I'm also a part of a small team with a guy from work, in the development of a cool LAN based WPF poker game.
This game utilizes .NET 3.5 and it's new GUI framework named WPF.

In this game I dabbled in my other passion, graphic design, it's also a part of my game design craze, but a smaller part.
Anyway, I did the graphic design for a lot of the stuff in the game, especially the card designs and the main game screen design.
I think it looks pretty good, and we put a lot of work into it.

We are trying to win a contest with this project, so if you are reading this go and download the game, it's totally free. This way you'll help yours truly and help me win a contest.
Thanks in advance...
