                                                                           \
           so what's this whole site about?                                /
           it's about coding (aka programming). i have designed it to show \
           that coding is not just a boring activity. the results are most /
           of the time  very  rewarding,  especially if you are working on \
           graphics programming, because of the immediate  visual results, /
           and also  because it's  such a new  area,  where  everything is \
           acceptable and where there still are no  real stable standards. /
             it (this site)  is also about what i have created in the area \
           of comptuer graphics and game programming. go to my programming /
           section and see what i created, perhaps you'll find it interes- \
           ting as well. if so,then i hope that my (and others') tutorials /
           can be of assistance.  this is all free information so make the \
           best use of it :)                                               /
                                                                           \
           why is this site all text and no graphics?                      /
           i beleive that nowadays, the internet has become a monster of a \
           network, and  that  its original design  never  was intended to /
           handle the vast  amounts of information  it is expected to now. \
           it  was  designed  to  transfer  text  information quickly  and /
           easily, and that's what it did; until it became commercialized, \
           which raised a lot of new jobs (and helped the  economy in many /
           countries), but allowed for a lot of junk to be put on it. i am \
           refering to (if you don't already realize this) all the advert- /
           isments on the net. with all this junk taking up precious band- \
           width, it is a lot easier to view web pages that are completely /
           composed of text, and color codes for some web browsers :)      \
                                                                           /
                                                                           \
