rtfm.

Can you provide any actual help? At all? In any of my topics? I'm pretty sure I've heard "rtfm" over nine thousand times and that's really, not helping.

"RTFM" stands for "read the fucking manual."  If you did some research (maybe you should memorize MSDN), and then you didn't bitch when people actually provided substantive help, more people might be inclined to more thoroughly help you.

I know what RTFM means, myndfyre. I was reading MSDN all last night and I still wasn't able to find much out, other then to set the window's text, something about a pointer to a custom draw struct, and do this all on WM_NOTIFY, however it doesn't work out very well when i don't return defwindowproc() on WM_NOTIFY, thanks. Not like Explicit ever actually helped anyone at all with anything related to actual programming... so why even post? And if he's going to post, why is he posting a 4 letter word, and a period? That response doesn't really help much, especially after i've mentioned serveral times i'm already reading msdn, and i'm getting little if nothing out of it, that's all. So far i've seen you link me twice to that same topic, it looks like you want me to look at it differently or something, thanks, it's just that I don't appriciate being called ignorant when I don't look at msdn to find out what a UINT_PTR is and find it's something completely different then what would logically make sense. I even said I figured it out. All I did is just mention that typedef being wrongfully named. Really.
And by the way, I do greatly appriciate people helping me out. Thanks, shadow, for helping me with that timer control. I wouldn'tve guessed right off that the callback sub for the timer optionally takes 4 parameters, especially considering how vb6 makes everything else so grossly oversimplified.

Don't get mad at me because you can't comprehend the page's content while others (yes, including myself) can.  If you're going to cry so much about why it won't work, post your crappy code so people can actually see where it is that you are messing up at.

In the past it's always been a problem on your end, and frankly I don't expect it to be anything otherwise.

Yes, myndfyre, that's completely amazing what you think 15 minutes of searching can do until you attempt to use it.
Also, I thought you memorized MSDN? I'm a bit suprised you didn't know about WM_SETFONT (a very *ahem* simple message everyone should know about) or can't you just get over your high level .NET crap? I'm sick of how arrogant you act when you don't even realize how much more complicated C++ is, IIRC you can make drag/drop interfaces just like in visual basic 6. I'd love to see you make a nice interface with C++, and not from a dialog box either. The only reason why you have such, a great job is because corporations are blinded by microsoft's glittery new hyper-turbo-oop piece of crap, and you're one of the few to care enough to learn it. So then again, why would you even care about WM_SETFONT when you can set the font from a cute dialog box? :p....
I'm not going to even reply to rabbit's post.

@Explicit: I can comprehend it. It's just that i've quit caring for now. Also if you haven't noticed, it's mfc, and I do remember saying I am not using mfc.

You could probably find more on the subject and be less of a dick all the time.

I was just about to post this exact link, but you beat me to the punch.

brew: the link is 100% API.

Wow, l)ragon thanks for those helpful links and actually helping me. Heh. Why can't you all be more like l)ragon and Kp?

Because we provided others means of support which solved the same exact problem? We are all different people and can't possibly know all of the same links as each other. The link I posted solves the problem, I just don't see how you missed it. The fact that they were using MFC couldn't have possibly kept you from figuring it out. I've never used MFC alone and I understood it perfectly.

i split the icons from this, put together with the panorama option in InfranView:

except in bmp format. imageshack converts bmps to png files.
HELP

Where are you getting those images from? You should use icons.bni.

[rabbit]

It's from DMBot, IIRC.

Also, your skin is hideous.

That color scheme makes me picture brew as some dark, disturbed, quiet, awkward, creepy, manipulative kid.  do you throw tantrums when your mom gets you to do stuff?

I just said I made it with infranview's panorama image maker from smaller icons....

Edit * Oh , if you mean where I got the original icons from, I cut and copied them with windows paint (from screenshots on starcraft itself) and i got the rarer icons from blizzard's battle.net icon information page.

And it's not a skin. I just used windows classic style with that color scheme and for the taskbar i just made a quick program to make it have an alpha blend of 165 (165 seems to look the best)
@Spht: i am not. When I had my first computer, I was a little kid who enjoyed playing with the color schemes. I've quickly grown used to the high contrast this one offers, therefore, easier to read. It is also black/red because it's the most efficient (energy-wise), since i'm using a CRT monitor. And because it just looks sweet.

Or you could have lots of icons, write a function to add numbers to the icons for levels/scores, and use these:
Games:









Others:





Clan:


DRTL:



DSHR:

D2DV/D2XP:








STAR/SEXP/JSTR:




W2BN:



WAR3:






W3XP:








And yes, I did make all of these using icons.bni where I could, and the WAR3 icon list on blizz's site for the WAR3/W3XP icons. Oh, and the WAR2 Spawn icon I made from the WAR2 icon and DSHR icon.

And where the hell did you get that b.net admin icon? that thing looks terrible.

So many adjectives...

RealityRipple: That's one idea, but I don't want to have a headache x18....
If you've noticed, in that screenshot you can see I'm loading my icons from file. I'm doing this because it just doesn't work when I try to load it from my resources. Why it does this, I have no idea. But I do get error 1814 from GetLastError(). I looked this up, it seems as if the resource hasn't been found. Wtf? I don't get why this is so, I'm using the constant assigned for it in resources.h, and it just can't seem to find it. :/ I have no idea on this one. Does microsoft's resource manager really just suck that much?
