Of course, if you would rather release them for free, we wouldn't mind much either. ;D On 4/25/07, Kamilche <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: Will McGugan wrote: > Hi folks, > > I've just posted a module to do sub-pixel blitting with 2D PyGame. > Hopefuly someone will find it useful! > > http://www.willmcgugan.com/2007/04/25/going-sub-pixel-with-pygame/ > > Regards, > > Will McGugan > > > Wow.
