This is a huge site, and the staff (of whom there aren't that many) are coping with a huge amount of work. Have some patience. After all, points are totally unimportant - you can't buy food with them can you?

I was brought up to respect my elders. I don't respect many people nowadays.

There are lots of people with bug fixations.

I'm currently testing the latest fixes, but due to our CodeProject.TV[^] launch things are a little delayed.

Rep points error?

I had been under the impression that source code downloads were rewarded with a single rep point, but every once in a while I notice that I recieve two points for a download.

Once I got 8 points for a download. This is my suspicion:

A Bronze Author downloads your file, then you get 1 point.
A Silver Author downloads your file, then you get 2 points.
A Gold Author downloads your file, then you get 4 points.
A Platinum Author downloads your file, then you get 8 points.

But I'm not sure about this. To test it, I downloaded a file of one of your articles. If you got 4 points, then my suspicion is correct. Otherwise, it's a bug.

On the Customized Android ListView with Image and Text article
(http://www.codeproject.com/Articles/507651/Customized-Android-ListView-with-Image-and-Text)I can download the WeatherActivity source code but not the WeatherDisplay.

I've tried from two different browsers on two different machines.

There is no error message nor download dialog.

I think it has to do with my zoom factor, although other zoomed sites with multi-image headers display correctly.

Chrome + (Any Zoom != 100%) == (Absolute Positioning Nightmare)^∞

Need I say more?

(Chrome is nice, but it has some bugs)
