An immediate flash back to the 80's Shabaz..What a fun way to introduce programming !

Hope to see some new names here on the list and their responses to the examples!

Nice post.

It took me back to the early days of doing computer graphics and the evolution of Sprites.

Doing bit mapped graphics were always a pain.

Shabaz,

This article is absolutely nice. Maybe many developers think that this is old ages history instead sprites are again one of the most efficient way to make some kind of motion (not only games as you suggest). Thanks for this jump back to the future [View:/resized-image/__size/16x16/__key/commentfiles/f7d226abd59f475c9d224a79e3f0ec07-2ad2e3b1-eb95-4ac7-bdac-cccd23c65939/contentimage_5F00_1.png:16:16]

Hi Shabaz,

Thanks for the great post! In addition to the educational value of it, for me there is also the added bonus of bringing back sweet memories from childhood, when I had my first contact with programming through the Commodore VIC-20 and later the C-64, and I can still remember the endless afternoons when, with a sheet of squared paper and a pencil, I was designing the sprites I'd use for my rather rudimental animation... (oh, lets not forget also all those PEEK and POKE!!)[View:/resized-image/__size/16x16/__key/commentfiles/f7d226abd59f475c9d224a79e3f0ec07-2ad2e3b1-eb95-4ac7-bdac-cccd23c65939/2148.contentimage_5F00_1.png:16:16].
