Here’s the updated poster, plus a wallpaper version of the artwork.

I can’t reproduce that error. Does it still happen for you or might it have been a temporary problem caused by the server being down or something? If it’s still happening, does it happen for all PMs or just one PM/conversation?
Thank you very much for the valuable feedback, Lester! You just gave me a good idea, which I’ll add to the new forums asap. 🙂
The current design does only show the user avatar and name and the actual post. On mouseover, additinal information becomes visible. This additional information does not currently include the user’s origin, post count or join date. I will consider adding this information.
I’ll not become a friend of signatures, though. I think these additional information about a person belong to another place. If someone desires to find out more about another poster, all info shall be in his user profile page.
I shall probably prepare a demo of the new forums to incorporate you guys in the bulding process…
Yes, there is. I think that signatures are totally unnecessary. They add absolutely no value to a conversation, while the cost is cluttered threads with huge sigs that distract from the actual postings, and higher loading times. I have seen scary things. 😉
I definitely prefer minimalistic setups. Therefore the forums on the next version of Planet VB will be much cleaner than the current and put total emphasis on the postings themselves.
I hope people can manage to live well without stuff like signatures. 😀
I’ll think positive and hope that it’s nothing serious. Please send morintari my best wishes when you can, RunnerPack! May he get well and out of the hospital soon.
So I have added the first chunk of screenshots:
– Dolphin Demo
– Racing Demo
– Wangan Sensen Red City
– Sora Tobu Henry
– Virtual Jockey
– Virtual Dodgeball
– Virtual Double Mahjong
– Faceball
– Bound High Beta
– Vertical Force Beta
– VB Wario Land Beta
– Virtual Bowling Beta
– Virtual Pro Baseball ’95 Beta
Don’t bother with editing and uploading these images, Robert. I have already gone through all of Ben’s Famitsu scans a while ago and cut out the screenshots and other interesting images which are not on the site yet. I only have to add them. 🙂
Thanks, Lester! You can reload the entire page, yes, but that would result in a flickering image since the whole page is constantly destructed and constructed again. I haven’t tried yet, but I assume that there won’t be any flickering if you only reload the images and redraw them to the canvas in a loop.
I just successfully built Jorge’s gccvb version using MinGW (official), but it behaves just like Runnerpack’s version (“0xc000007b”). Weird.
I couldn’t build blitter’s version because of an error with building binutils. 🙁
Apparently, the table cache of the respective database tables had to be flushed. Now, everything seems to work fine again. Can you confirm, Tauwasser?
Typo on the poster. “Production” is spelled “Prodution”. And why does the V have a chunk missing out of it?
Fixed the typo, thanks!
The logo is actually a hommage to the logo of a certain Virtual Boy game, which also has that detail. Makes it look more interesting. 🙂
The pre-compiled gccvb posted by RunnerPack does not work for me when dropped into VBDE (gave an error like “application could not be started (0xc000007b)” – some 32/64 bit issues I assume). We couldn’t get this fixed.
Is anyone able to build Windows binaries with Jorge’s fixes?

KR155E, the USB version is a concept for online multiplayer for future games.
It still needs a receive and send program and a connection.
That’s only one possible application, albeit a very cool one. I guess it could also be used for debugging, cart dumping or for using the Virtual Boy as a 3D display device for the PC, like Alberto Covarrubias’ veGL. 🙂
Great work guys, that plug looks fantastic! I want both! One can only dream of what great applications both cables will find. 🙂
Thanks for the feedback! I have fixed that for the next version.
Still really impressive! Looking forward to see how it progesses! 🙂
The counter was set to show only 6 digits, so the seventh couldn’t be seen. Let’s just assume Dan was number 1.000.000, not 1.000.009. 😉 Congrats to Dan and PVB! 😀
Buggy counter fixed now.
Just found this old thread and thought that all the cool mockups created in the contest should be preserved here.
