atrocityFirst Update!
I'm creating my GUI in 100% FreeBASIC. Not external libraries or anything. So far I got window blitting working so it's just updating the windows when information changes, not the entire screen. Then, after the update, the window itself is just bit blit onto the screen.

First off, welcome to the site!
And second, that's a pretty impressive screenshot, keep up the good work and post if you have any questions or want suggestions/feedback.

Haha, thanks! I've been doing the whole QB thing since I was 6 (I'm 28 now), so I've been doing it forever. I wrote a basic bootloader and kernel in ASM/C about 7 years ago and wrote a compilers, so I've been all over the board. I wanted to write something for fun with a spare PC I have in my bedroom and figured I'd see what the QB scene was up to with GUI's these days. Afterward, decided to program one in DOS and found no good DOS editor like the old built-in QBASIC one. So started on that and then started on this, lol! I started this about 7-8 months ago, but haven't touched it in the last 7 months, lol. Total time so far is maybe 2 weeks.

Also, question: How often can I update without pissing everybody off? I've been making progress but don't want to ruin the front page, lol!
