Well, I like a challenge and also I've been known to let my creative ambition overwhelm my technical limitations before, so whatever.
Anyway, there's still a lot of concept stuff still to flesh out before this even becomes an issue, but I think reading the C# book just went from optional to required. So here I go...

ReplyDeleteThanks! I think it will definitely be worth it if I can pull it off. We'll see how big an "if" that is...
