OK, I've reached the point where I don't know what to do. I've read the whole documentation three times, fixed every nitpicks the testers submitted, tested the interface on Coldstone all day long, even written the readme files, and tried about 5 different ways of organizing the folders in the Coldstone package to see which one would look best. My most recent achievement: offseting the yellow bulb in the tip of the day window by 6 pixels down because I noted that the image wasn't properly Y centered in the dialog.

Time for a beer (while I'm packaging the whole thing).

Good work, Dee.
But if your looking for things to do, I know some stuff you could do for Coldstone 2.
Let's see, there's multiplayer support, and hue changing...

Just kidding.

Yeah, now all we need to do is wait for Andrew to get his slacker self back from Hawaii.

So, does that mean Final Beta, or public release of v1.0?

And as for something to do, post an update in the progress log(not that it'll be around much longer, but hey, it's something to do )
Congrats! If I had any money to spare, I'd buy the third round.

Yes, you're happy, we're happy, but you know? First day it's out, 2000 emails saying, "Dee, I think I found a bug / typo.."

Congrats, man!

Yay for Coldstone! Let's hope it is one of the many incredible games that Ambrosia has released this year. (Mirrorman looks hopeful)

Sadly, I am too young for beer, but I'll give you guys the money for the third round.
