[C#] Will draw rectangle on form, but not inside picturebox? FIXED :) Don't ask me how this happened but the picturebox I was using was inside a panel. Somehow its location was set to -151, so it was drawing way off screen. I knew it was weird that this wasnt working, and it was because I made a small littl...

Do you spend your time playing new games or old ones from your childhood? Quote:Original post by Trapper Zoid Um, both?

Diddy says "Gas Prices Too High" Don't ask me how I saw this but Diddy's newest blog video has him bitching about John McCain's VP pick because shes from Alaska. He clearly says at the end that "we are the future" referencing black people. I want equal living, not an invasion, lol.
