Why not post these specifications when they are done, so that we
can see what you are looking for?

 I'd be happy to write some graphics routines, although my only experience
 in DJGPP with graphics has been using the Allegro library.

 _Gasp_ Are you suggesting commercial software? Uhhhgggg.. Oh well, I will
 save my opinions on this issue for another time.. ;-). BTW, I do think you
 will get more participation in your project if it is free, with freely 
 available source code.. Everyone should follow Netscape's example.. :)

All of this is on my page at http://www.concentric.net/~skis. Go to the C section
and PLEASE ignore the QBasic stuff. I put it there for those who are just beginning
in programming, and may need a little help to get started. I personally dislike QBasic
very much. By the way, I really am not looking to get involved in a commercial project,
since I am a student and I am already very busy with school. Sorry.
