    You should start a forum thread for reader suggestions for specific Icrontic Viewpoint features.

    For example, I might like to see the staff debate the merits of a project like folding at home, or maybe talk about the various physics implementations. Really connect with the community to see what they want discussed.

    Question #1. How are we supposed to interpret the graphic above? I guess thats one long thumb or Good Stuff<sup>TM</sup> must make him really happy.

    I love the view point idea :)

    Good Stuff is a nice bonus but i read almost everything that is posted here in the news anyway ;)

    I love the idea (thanks Thrax for pushing this forward). It sounds like a great way to bridge the gap between the highly technical and the not-so-technical-but-wouldn't-mind-being-educated. :D

    Incidentally, GooD... what is your avatar icon? It looks suspiciously like Randi, the main character/hero from SNES game Secret of Mana. Is there a bigger version somewhere? I must know!

    Oh my god, big question here... First of all, i never played Secret of mana games so i can't remeber from my "playing time" if he's from SOM... BUT, At the time i found this avatar, i was looking for sprites for a game concept (RPG) i was developing in Pascal on my spare time like 8 years ago :P

    I found many things from many games. Mostly Breath of fire games. This one was nice enough to become my avatar. There was effectively if i remember well some sprites from Secret of mana in one of the packages i took. But i can't be sure enough to say 'its from SOM'. He's bad ass though :)

    Sorry if i can't help u more than that :)

    I think these are great additions. All too often news sites regurgitate press releases, but we've got the talent to really put things in context. :thumbsup:

    Ah, well then he's probably not the same guy. He looks similar, but the SOM guy didn't have a hawk/raven compatriot. You can see a little art piece for the guy I was thinking of here.

    As a "no technical knowledge but really want to understand" person, THANKS! Sounds like a thread I should follow...if I only knew how!
