VBGamer

As long as it works for you, I don't see a problem with it.  I was just being nosy.  I actually jumped from 4 to 6, but that was only because of where I work.  I haven't jumped on the .NET bandwagon either yet, at least not for VB.  C# is pretty nice, though.  I also hear you on the dx thing.  I mainly stayed with 7 (at least vs. 8) because I was ticked that they took all the 2D stuff out in version 8.  Haven't really taken a close look at 9 yet, though.

In any case, glad to see you didn't leave us   Hope you're really not planning on keeping future games to yourself, though.  I'm looking forward to seeing what you have to offer next.
