What's up, Lollip0p?

Happy New Year to all!
This has been a nice, restful long weekend for me, after entertaining family. Actually, I did manage to squeeze in some time to map out what I'll be doing for this month. Basically, I'm finishing up this little game here and then doing...dun dun...hopefully a month of L!sp. Yeup...because..why not.

Actually, I think the logic and juggling around will be good for me. Whenever I do a bunch of J@va, I find that I struggle to get back into L!sp. So why not spend some time just doing strictly L!sp stuff. I was able to get a bunch of L!sp game tutorials! Hooray! So we'll see how that goes. If not...I do have a back-up plan. I don't want to be stuck on just J@va...I've seen some of those kinds of people and later on, it becomes difficult for them to learn other languages. After all, this is about modifying and opening your mind to other ways of thinking and solving problems.

In any case, today was just working a bit on the UI and figuring out how to do custom res0lutions. I continue with that tomorrow...today I have to jet out a little early to do some very important business that pretty much will speed up the process for the next journey in my life :)
I'm very excited!
Oh, I"m also going to this bomb event upcoming, near the mid to the end of month. It's going to be awwwesomeee!!!!
Here is to a wonderful New Year! Stay positive, work hard and kick butt! :)

1. This enables you to use a textEditor to manually enter and check your resolution..so you can do custom resolutions for your game. It's an XML file in J@va, essentially. The goal is so that you can save your C0nfiguration and it would only change if you change the value. So it's like a saved state in a Game, essentially.


Oh yeah..buttons! J@va buttons..I know :( They work, though!
 Drop down choices for resolution of your game.


 woahh..huge!!!




An 800 x 600

Difference in resolution
 We built our own initial UI which will have the buttons and a rollover...oh yeah!



 And..just code...these are just things that were made/ updated today. I'm not going to repost hundred and hundreds of lines unless they changed.
