good program for 2D models?
|
I wrote a nice 2D graphics engine for myself that uses textured/colored meshes for objects instead of bitmaped sprites. I did it that way because it allows me to cleanly animate an object simply by moving the various meshes that comprise it (such as... |

Building a Gaming PC on the cheap
|
Note: I wrote a bit too much perhaps; skim to the linked and bolded parts if you just want the highlights.
