Either press the + button with multiple quotations or do it manually by writing:

Code:

[ quote = author of the post ] some text [ / quote ]

(get rid of the spaces;))

which will give you:

Don't worry mate, I know that you meant the design!

Looking forward to what you'll come up with next.

(Sorry, I couldn't resist ;P). Nah, design is of course important as we're not in 1988 anymore, sad but true.

And there is also a tag that allows you this :

Meant no harm. A

Don't hold your breath... Don't let my nick Fool you...

I just hope it ends up being worth the wait.

Good work pmc

Vortex · 05 June 2009, 22:53

Congrats with your first intro/demo...

Liked it. Now we want more of course. You can't resign...

Photon · 05 June 2009, 23:36

It's ok

Plasma isn't 1987, but this is better than what I did in 1987 and the copperbars inside the logo gives it the seal of approval from me, at least

bLAZER · 05 June 2009, 23:55

Nice one...I like the plasma... the music isn't that good though... but that's not your fault... except that you chose it

WayneK · 06 June 2009, 11:30

I liked the plasma too, and you can't go wrong with a starfield behind a logo with copperbars through it

Music... well... it's been said! But keep coding "effects from 1987" for sure, since I love them.

Thanks for the positive feedback Photon, it's guys like you I'm trying to emulate. I love old skool demos and you're a master.

ROFL!

And thanks WayneK too. In fact, thanks everyone for all the great comments. There'll definitely be more routines to come and, err... next time I'll choose nicer music.

Leffmann · 06 June 2009, 15:27

Nice one!

DH · 07 June 2009, 20:14

How the fook did I miss this mate!

Now I know what you need

Looks good though the scroller text is too slow for me but that's only my opinion, other than that

NOB · 07 June 2009, 21:13

Nice one. Should be crunched with tetrapacker to get more 1988 retro-style.

No worries man. Now, after seeing my logo, you can tell why I need professional help! Funnily enough the scroller routine in the code does have speed option changes built in to make it pause, go faster or even backwards if needed. I left it at default s-l-o-w speed cause I was too lazy to bugger about!

LOL. True, very true. Time to download TetraPacker for the next one.

Nice work. I guess you had fun working on it and thats important. One shouldnt judge the design with nowadays standards. The productions now are much more complex, compared to those one-man-shows from the past.
