> 1)what is the minimum radius that I need to ensure a circle always appears, well, round? > This will depend on the display support on the system. If they have low-res - say, 640x480, it'd have to be rather large to look rounded, and if they're using a WebTV or WinCE device or something (generally 320x240 or less) it has to be even larger, or it gets grainy edges.
Well, I'm using 800 by 600 res at home (I'm very near sighted and like large icons/text). Windows standard has a minimum of 640 by 800. Right now, my circles have a radius 2 and 3 units. > There is some code for this on vbAccelerator.com - I don't have time to give an exact link at the moment, but dig around over there in the classic VB section in the graphic lib area. Thank you. One thing I've learned is it's stupid/time-waster to re-invent the wheel. If it's been done before, I'd prefer to use the tried-and-true method unless I need to upgrade its functionality. > Again, on vbAccelerator.com there is a library sample to store images as JPG. Since the legal ramifications of saving as GIF are far more pressing (though less of an issue in the USA anymore), I would suggest avoiding the GIF format. The only problem I had was converting my image into jpg format . . made my picture look rather . . . glossy. Of course, that could have just been Windows Paint program doing that to my bmp pic. >Trespassers will be experimented on! If and only if you can catch them. ------------------------ Yahoo!
