Ok, Ok. I know I said last month that I wouldn't be submitting any more versions of this, but bugs and the incompletness of some of the features annoyed me enough to update it. The new features of the program are outlined below. Thanks to all who voted for me last month, I got 3rd place! No votes on this please, just detailed comments. Special thanks to LaVolpe for his help in tracking down annoying memory leaks.

This is a great program which uses MSAgent to create a helpful desktop character. ComTalk can tell you the time at regular intervals, remind you of dates, syncronise your clock to an atomic clock and has up to 10 voice-activated programs. Please vote and comments are appreciated.

Yes, it's back; yet another version of my award-winning VB source code scanning program. For those who don't know, DeepLook can scan your VB projects and return a detailed treeview showing statistics on almost every aspect. Other functions include the ability to copy all the files required by yor project into a single directory, create HTML/TXT reports and report unused variables. Incorporating many new bug-fixes and features, this release includes a feature that many users have requested even since its conception: HTML reports. After beginning the HTML template code, I got frustrated with the clumsyness of the method I was using so decided to use XML reports instead with a HTML formatting template. The result is that a XML report is saved as two files, the actual XML report data and a XML stylesheet (which, incidentally, is a Microsoft template that I altered to suit DeepLook). This method means smaller and faster XML report saving code. In case you already have a DeepLook text report saved on your computer, you can now "scan" the text file to produce a XML report directly. Other additions include making the code MUCH more robust as well as fixing what I think I can safely say all the remaining bugs in the Unused Variable Scanner. The UVS also takes into account (ignores) case-preserving variables that are encapsulated in the "#if false" and "#end if" headers. Other new additions/corrections are listed below. Screenshot note: the daughter windows are NOT transparent in the actual program, that just saves space. No votes please, this is just an update (and i've already won once!) but I WOULD appreciate some constructive comments. Zip ~350kb. +++ MAJOR ADDITIONS IN THIS VERSION: Array handling fixed for a major speed increase, Quick access Addin This contains a few bugfixes I implemented since the major Nov update. Fixed bugs described by Lorin, Morgan and Robert in the comments, as well as a bug I found in the Recent Scanned Items list. ### UPDATE: Fixed an issue which may cause an infinite loop or incorrect results, thanks to Steve Redmyer###

A program that was *supposed* to be a replica of the popular "stickman" animation program called Pivot (freeware) but open source. I lost interest in this mid-way as it led into my "Photoshop-Like Layers Demo" project, but I present it here for those who want to hack it apart or even (snort) finish it. I admit the code is not one of my best efforts, as it is unfinished, uncommented and probably has many bugs but it may be of some use to someone. uses a mix of VB elements and GDI. No votes nessesary.

This is version 2 of my "Photoshop-like layers demo" project which I submitted last month (and which was very well recieved). This version fixes some bugs and adds new feautres (such as the layer flip, merge, duplicate and move buttons). I also added in the SetStretchBlt command to make the preview picturebox show the correct colours, as you can no doubt see. Each layer can have an individual transparency level and be moved seperatly, although the moving speed will decrease each time a new layer is added. Tested and works fine on Win 2000/XP and should work fine on 98/ME (NOT 95). Comments appreciated. *** Updated 14th Oct 2005: Now has demo for drawing onto a layer with the mouse, and Invert Layer function added.

This is a small demonstration showing you how to implement dynamic Photoshop-like graphics layers in VB (including alpha-blending). By this, I mean this demo shows you how to create code that will enable you to add, manipulate and move each individual layer at runtime while using a small amount of memory for each layer. This sample uses intermediate code; i.e. no subclassing etc., only GDI API functions. Please see the comments on the demo form for a longer explanation. Votes welcome, comments preferred. UPDATE: Major GDI memory leaks fixed, support for Win98, Layer Delete button and Percentage Alpha values added.

DeepLook project analysing software. I have now moved onto embedded microcontrollers and the C language so I will not be updating this project any further, unless problems are found by users. DeepLook can scan and give reports for group, project or single VB files written in VB6, VB5 and (limited information) .NET. It shows all returned information in an easy to navigate Treeview and (for found unused variables) grid. Please vote and comments on the final version of this software are most definetly welcome. -------------------------------------------------- UPDATE: A new version is avaliable on PSC, this is kept because it has a shiny gold logo.
