Not sure whether to post this as a bug report as well . I think it shows a lot about the way that DB/DirectX does things... perhaps drawing them a long way off screen when they're not being synced? Anyway... here's a screenshot of what happens: http://mainframe39.mikeasoft.com/junk/screwyness.jpg
Here's a precompiled version: http://mainframe39.mikeasoft.com/junk/screwy.exe
And the code is attached . Enjoy the screwyness!

When catapults are outlawed, only outlaws will have catapults. I have a catapult. Give me all the money, or I will fling an enormous rock at your head.

How Odd, I think thats cool, Its just if i lest it sit, for a while it will close its self, then it looks like there is a Scancode (for Grocery Stores) Under my pointer, till I reopen the program and close it myself.

That is cool, if only it did not close its self, I would have it as a screen saver.

Cool Program

Later

I think it closes itself when it runs out of video memory, on my system it gets all the way to the end. Try downloading the source and change the value here: "until a=10000000" The current value is so that it'll cover anything up to 1920x1440 (my resolution). So if you're using a lower resolution just set it to a lower value .
