N.A.N.Y. 2019 Begins
« on: June 16, 2018, 06:33 PM »
Since 2007 we have held an annual event that we call NANY (New Apps for the New Year), where we ask the coders who hang out on DonationCoder to create some new piece of free software and share it with the world on January 1st of the new year.

NANY is really the funnest thing we do on this site, and it's one of the few times we can all play together.  There are no winners or losers, it's simply a celebration of programming and creating new software and sharing it with the world.  You can target any operating system (desktop or mobile) or even make a web-based tool.  It can be a game, utility, large application, whatever.  DC takes makes no claim on your software, it's just an event to encourage you to share a creation with others.  Best of all, everyone who participates gets a free commemorative coffee mug.

Ah, this time of the year again...
I'm prepared. But I'll wait for the NANY template to be updated for 2019 before I start posting.

(I even consider to just wait until December, maybe I'll have more potential entries then.)
I bet when Cheetahs race and one of them cheats, the other one goes "Man, you're such a Cheetah!" and they laugh & eat a zebra or whatever.

At least you've started!  I'm behind schedule because I haven't even had a chance to start on my idea yet!

Can we tempt anyone into making an alternate NANY 2019 mug design?

A quick version based off of one I did last year only with different background and some of the colors.

Done.
I worked out (messily) a way to get my N.A.N.Y. entry into a (I hope correct) template.

That was after spending a bit of time trying to find out where to source the official template from.

For future reference, where do you keep such things?
