I hate to be the bearer of bad news...you were right on the first point and wrong on the second.

If you're code needs pics to operate, please zip everything up and post the zip file.
Check your code (well, dl the copy you've posted), it has a large number of bugs in it (mainly w/ locate()s.)

Link delos said, instead of using locate to output texts use Font.Draw (txtStr : string, x, y, fontID, Color : int). BTW nice graphics.

I'm guessing from your post that you know what you're talking about. I would like to draw your attention to this.
Obviously there is no comparison between msimard8 and Zylum (the former has yet to conclusively prove their competence), but this simply illustrates the point that your laudations, though well meaning, are quite some misplaced.
As for talent, perhaps msimard8 can draw some nice shapes and play some nice music, but they still have a while to go with debugging ("Sure it's an awsome proggie...when it works").
Not to discourage them at all, indeed the point of this forum is to foster understanding, and better use of programming languages - be they Turing or Java &c &c.
On the other hand, we have yet to see anything at all from you, besides this one post. Not so much as an introduction in the Hello World thread (now somewhat forgotten...[sigh].
