What's your digital signature look like?

[SMcNeill]

Just something I was playing around with, which I thought about adding to my little X-Mas program for folks who like to save their colored pictures and stuff -- a digital style "signature" which I'd post down in the corner of the page as a sort of little watermark for them. 

Code: QB64: [Select]

1. Screen _NewImage(640, 480, 256)
2.  
3. Do
4.     Cls
5.     Input "Input your own name to make a signature!"; user$
6.     If user$ = "" Then System
7.     Signature user$, 320, 240
8.     Do: _Limit 10: Loop Until _KeyDown(32)
9. Loop
10.  
11.  
12. Sub Signature (user$, x, y)
13.     PSet (x, y), Asc(user$, 1)
14.     For i = 1 To Len(user$)
15.         angle = _D2R((Asc(user$, i) - 65) * 360 / 57)
16.         x1 = 25 * Sin(angle)
17.         angle = _D2R((Asc(user$, i) - 65) * 360 / 57)
18.         y1 = 25 * Cos(angle)
19.         Line -Step(x1, y1), Asc(user$, i) ', BF
20.     Next
21. End Sub

A pretty little scribble unique for each user!  ;)

I used 3.141592654 as a 'name' and it produced a small 2D landscape... Cool...

Hmmm
I tried to compile this code with V1.5 on win7_32 bit and i get compiler error
why?...do i need to use latest 2.0 for such a simple program ?

What's the compiler error?  I don't see anything in it that requires 2.0.


Edit: Just tried it and it compiled under 1.5 just fine for me.  You'll have to share the error log so we have an idea of what went wrong on your system.

here is:

what a heck...
i tried again and now compile fine
hmm...that was strange....sorry if I bothering you.

 ..\..\Dsignature.exe: Permission denied

Sounds like an user's permission issue.  Might want to check your file/folder properties and make certain you have permission to use your own computer...  Windows is goofy and sometimes it just loves for you to have to give yourself permission to do what you're wanting to do.

What a unique idea!
