I finished my user interface and have released the source. I made an extensive tutorial in the form of a demo game; the problem is that the tutorial is a big file (9Mb). The source is much smaller of course (1.5Mb) and includes the default sprites and game files, etc....
I realize that a 9Mb download will overwhelm many of you, especially if you have a 56k modem and you pay by the minute for internet. I am now thinking about how to reduce the size and perhaps split up the demo in to smaller sections.
In the mean time, I am wondering if someone with a high speed connection would take the time to download the tutorial, walk through, and comment. If there is some interest I will do what I can to help people use it. Please note: The art work is of little consequence here since
anyone using BlueGui will most likely want to draw their own sprites and use their own color scheme. I am more interested in what you think about the functionality of the thing.
Demo Source & Exe (9Mb)

Source only (1.5Mb)

Anyway, I hope some finds this stuf helpful..
Cheers
