I think my two questions were the most pertinent and, by a lucky happenstance, the most amusing.

They were also the most relevant and the most introspective. We at the IRC deeply appreciate your thoughtful interaction.

"they make me laugh out loud"


is more grammatically correct than "lol", "laugh out loud" seems more like your telling the 2nd person to laugh ^_^

Mouse, simply use the Draw Sprites First command, works a treat. That's what I used in my Level Editor ( jump over to WIP to see it ), and there's nothing wrong with getting the text onto the sprite.
