It's 2 hrs since I stepped back into the office after the break but I'm happy to say it should all now be fixed. Thanks for your endless, unfussed patience.

Thanks a lot. Looking at that 'double icon' almost made me believe I had split personalities Poke tongue | ;-P

Hi, guys -

I'm thinking about buying my new codesigning cert from CodeProject, but I have a couple questions I'd like answered first. Is there an email address dedicated to the cert product? If not, what's the best method to communicate re: certs?

We have one internally for notifications but for a friendly face please email Dave or myself (Dave@, chris@ codeproject.com) He knows more about the ins and outs of certs than I, so I;ll probably pass on any hard, over-two-syllable questions to him.

Do we get reputation points for entering site contests?

You'd better not! Not unless there was a non-US method to balance it out!

I don't think it's their fault that it's US-only... There are legalities involved, and that's the downside of the "global economy".

No, I hold no actually animosity against CP what so ever.

I was a little peeved that clicking on the link on the sticky went to a message saying "you can't even read about this, non-yankee scum!".

But they fixed the sticky post, and all is right with the world.

I hope you enjoy your kindle, and don't just use it as target practise...

Speaking of reputation points, I vote for resetting them to zero when a Code Project VIP responds to questions with things like this[^].

A fifty-line program that logs you out from and back in to CP every day will easily earn you more points ...
and it would work everywhere.

I don't need that, because I log in a billion timers a day on my own.

I was just wondering if reputation points are affected by participating in CP-sponsored contests. I think they should be because you're essentially an active participant on the site, and that's what I thought the reputation points were for.

At the moment, no, but I agree we should give points for this stuff. We just have to work out how to hook these things up automatically, though.

Hanukkah Bob?

Not a problem, but I'd love to see a Hanukkah Bob during the week of it. Since he has three fingers on each hand, and his head is above his hands, you could do a candle on each "finger" and one on his head? Or could you send me the graphic of Bob so I could alter him for one of every holiday? Including International "Talk Like a Pirate Day?" PLEEEEZE? Smile | :)
