Well, I'm afraid to say that it's time for me to bid you all fairwell - at least for now! I've got several reasons why it's time for me to call it a day. A few of them are listed below:
1) Work - I'm back off to college in September so I'll have loads of work to do with not enough time to keep this site going AND helping out friends with their websites.
2) DIV's Age - Poor ol' DIV! It wasn't exactly a spring chicken when it was first released. As I've said to others, when DIV2 is released I may update again - who knows!
3) Writing Tutorials - To be honest I'm pretty bored of the whole tutorial thing. They take ages to write, edit, correct and upload. I originally made them because of the complete lack of documentation for DIV. I hope that FastTrak have learnt their lesson and are developing something a little better for the follow-up.
4) New Packages - I've not done anything in DIV for a while now because it has been surpassed by other game creation packages such as Blitz Basic. I recommend trying DarkBASIC - another FastTrak Product if you haven't done so already - see www.darkbasic.com for details & demos.
There are other reasons, but those are the main ones. The site will remain as it is for now, though I can't give you a guarentee that it'll be here much longer. Until we meet again: be seeing you ...
