I was approached by GameDev.net before I left for the States to
convert my series on "Binding D to C" into an article for their
new article system. Now that I'm back home, I've gotten it done.
What I didn't know until now is that their system requires a
250x150 header image to go along with the article. I could cobble
something together myself, but I thought I'd appeal here first
for help as I'm sure there's someone here who could do a much
better job.
I see two possibilities. One is an image tied specifically to
this article, something that includes references to both D and C.
Another is one that is more general, a D image that I could use
for all D articles I write for gdnet. I'll be happy either way.
While I'm here, I would also like to encourage anyone using D for
game development to sign up for gamedev.net and consider writing
articles about your experience. The community has some members
who are in the AAA games industry, some who work for indie shops
both large and small, some who work in publishing, art, and
whatnot. But the largest group are hobbyists, many of whom are
just starting out. And of those members working in the industry
now, some of them started out on gdnet during their high school
or college years. Plus, a decade ago anyone not using C++ would
have been flamed to ashes there. Now that attitude is long dead
and they are much more open to using and discussing different
languages. So any articles written there will have exposure to a
fairly large and varied audience of game developers, some of whom
would certainly be willing to look into D.
