Good News:)

Ok miker, I am 70 and I too have no shortage of problems, unfortunately some discomfort appears now and then, good thing they are not serious problems at the moment, but when age advances the risks are behind the door !

Good news! I have fully recovered. I should take better care of myself. I'm not as young as I was. I'm almost 60 now. :-) Anyhow, I've decided to get back into AROS programming by updating the many functions of my Small Scale Picture Viewer. It will be used as the basis for Picture-IT which is a simple picture converter with some additional functionality.

DropBox should still work just enter the ID in the appropriate field in the clouddrivers preferences App you need to request the ID with a modern browser if you have an account

the Libray ASL included in previous fixes does not work properly you can remove it and replace it with the original one, remove the preferences programme also

I know that many people still download Icaros Desktop I wanted to give a brief introduction to the fixes I am publishing it is a bit unstable compared to the new deadwood core, all the current software on archives works fine remember to update the software that is not all included in the fixes enjoy

@miker1264 Best wishes for better health to you!

I've been watching some videos about the early days of computers such as the IBM 5150 & 5170 as well as the IBM PC AT/XT. I was also watching one about the early days of the Amiga 1000 with the Loraine prototype with all the breadboards. Interesting fact, one of the early "super computers" had 16MB RAM with a 10Mhz CPU. It could do 8 MIPs. Nowadays the Pi 3A+ on my PiStorm32 in my Amiga 1200 can do 800 MIPs.

is about health and well Miker:)

I haven't been very productive lately. I recently hurt my back again. It requires lots of pain medication, lidocaine patches, smelly ointment and electric heating pads. It's not much fun! Other than health issues, family time, and working two jobs I might actually get something done. Hopefully I can do some programming again within a week.

Ok Miker:)

[quote name=Amiwell79 post=4381]@Amiwell79 - miker this month I cannot make a donation be patient[/quote] No worries. Work continues, although slowly at times due to family, work at home job, and health issues. AROS and Amiga keep me busy.

Beautiful miker, both images represent beautiful Italy !

This is an application that is part of Picture Tools. It's simply called "PictureIT" which is a picture converter. PictureIT uses picture datatypes. I've done some initial work but there is still much to do before it is complete.

Thank you miker, do what you like best, we will always be happy !

Rather than 3d graphics, 3d Rendering only uses the RTG Graphics and vector math to produce images. Rendering programs are more for nostalgia and amusement than anything else. For me it's an opportunity to learn new things. I'm also working on Icon Tools and Picture Tools as well as more icons and themes that will be of use for AROS users who are interested in Graphics Programs. :)

@miker AROS has a limited following of users, as a result there will be very few who are passionate about 3D Graphics. Those who like 3D Graphics certainly use programs of a certain level and power available on other platforms. In my opinion we need to focus on software that enhances the Operating System, and common-use software, this will enable users to use AROS as a productive computer. Wanting to do a census to see how many AROS users would like to develop 3D Graphics
