Help, piss poor perfomance with GDI+ I would suggest to check WPF as it will be definitively faster than GDI. Or you may directly "paint" on the memory of a bitmap and then put the bitmap on the screen in the paint event. That's the fastest way with GDI.

Released a simple Sudoku grid generator and solver (Open source) Yet another update... The last for today.

I'm still however not sure about...

C# sux! Or I do? Didn't checked your code yet... But a little hint: if you are using multiple threads (which seems to be the case) be sure you handle correctly the data access over the threads, that means if a thread need to modify the data, use a lock, and use the...

C#, sockets and cross-platform multiplayer? Depending of your needs (speed mainly), you may also check to use Remoting instead of directly coding with socket. I have a running project working on Linux for the server and windows for the clients where all the communication is done via Remot...
