Tres, you're again reading way too much into what I've said... There's nothing "punitive" being suggested by me or anyone else here. But you if anyone should know the reasons for the guidelines - we've discussed them in detail before... so it's always good to go over them to make sure we're all on the same page here - the guidelines are for everyone, it won't be fair otherwise. But disregarding the guidelines entirely, as they're not the issue here... I don't think Bill's first version of the SID graphics is the best way to go about them. I've already elaborated why and I'm not going to repeat myself, if you care for my thoughts on the subject scroll back on the mailing list and read my posts. I'm entirely fine with Bill making graphics for the SID though: I've posted some mockups and some incomplete ideas on how to implement a GUI that captures the look and feel of a true C-64 experience, and I've asked Bill if he's willing to collaborate with me on implementing these graphics. Also, there's really no hurry to get new SID graphics uploaded, there's no deadline set yet for the final release, and even when it is, LMMS will work with the old ones in case the new ones don't make it in time... so I think it's better to take our time and do this thing right. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Managing the Performance of Cloud-Based Applications Take advantage of what the Cloud has to offer - Avoid Common Pitfalls.
