[QUOTE="Larry, post: 130170, member: 3060"] I'll do what I can but most of these things I addressed during creation and they either didn't work or were way more trouble than they are worth at this point I'd imagine true TPA cab support to be a couple months off at the latest. -Default BG image=Ok I'll do what I can there, shouldn't be too tough but the way it's setup, it will always be in the list to scroll through. -Image Stretch=not really, when I set it to truly fill the window behavior, it stretches and skews if the window size doesn't match the proportion of the original image so I thought that "zoom" would allow for more flexibility. Full Screen=No, it behaves very weird (at least on my test machine) when I did this, for most versions of windows, it makes the window completely hidden or black when the TPA window is re-selected. The only way I got it to work right in Win 7-8 was to disable aero and that wound up making all other windows behave abnormally. I have been looking into a custom window class to work around it, but would again suggest that this is "very" short term Editing the images=under development. This also causes my program a bucket load of trouble from the simple fact that now I have a lot of stuff replace with changeable settings as well as the ability to change, insert into the assets, etc. I agree that my images suck and are very inconsistent, but ultimately only have access to so many "decent quality" images to choose from. Black Rose was a good example, I searched for 2 days and wound up using an image with HORRIBLE color balance because it was the only "legit to use" image I could find that was above 400x400pixels...sooo, if anyone sends me/links me better images, I'm happy to replace them, but at this point, again I thought it didn't really warrant the extra overhead. All this is assuming cab support is relatively close. If it turns out to be a few more months, I'm sure I'll get more inspired and get a working version out the door. My work schedule has also been killing me lately so I've just had less time in general to futz around....that should change in a week or two. Thanks for the pic, it is also very inspiring! [/QUOTE]
