The May issue of QB Express is now available!

This month's 150-page behemoth of an issue is full of delicious stuff that is sure to get any QB or FB coder salivating. In the Gallery, we have a preview of the new FreeBasic version of WisdomDude's "Cyber Chick". Lurah contributed a review of Rick Clark's "QuickRogueFB"; we have three different comic strips - QB Horse Humor, Stickblob & 0 1 Comics; Pritchard tells us about "Making a QB or FB Site"; Nathan1993 weighs in on writing creative game storylines; Moneo explains "The Fallacy of Meaningful Codes"; MystikShadows gives us a history and overview of all the different kinds of Artificial Intelligence technology out there; and finally, we have "What NOT To Do as a Programmer" by Imortis Inglorian.

Tutorials this month include "Polar Plasmas" by Optimus; "A Beginner's Introduction to Gtk+" by red_Marvin; "Making Good Sound Effects" by Michael "Fuzzypig" Reiley; "MIDI Programming Part 3: Timing, Windows API and MIDI Events" by MystikShadows; and the gigantic second part of Lachie Dazdarian's series on "How To Program A Game With FreeBASIC".

Could you even ask for more? Get it all in QB Express #20!

Crikey! 150 pages you say?

*reads*

thanks Pete!

great read!! I love Optimus' polar plaz!

Great work as always.

I would love to offer the facility to host the dialup version of the magazine, only I haven't the time...

I would love to see the 3D Kart game finished, I watched the demo movie of it and was very impressed!

One issue I will raise is the comic Stickblob. It seems like a non-intentional stick-clone of Blobworld. I must admit they are funny, but episode 2 was almost identical to one of my TNI episodes.

I know this is something I must deal with, as it involves not the magazine as a whole or in part, but with the comic and the author.

The fact that it is different in context means I can't really say or do anything about it.

Don't get me wrong, I'm not complaining.

Just ranting...

It looks like another great issue.

But you didn't publish the latest version of my FB tutorial I emailed you. I assume you were really busy back then since I emailed you that Qlympics stuff too and no words from you over 2 weeks.

Sweet issue, as always! d=8)
