I bought blitzmax a few hours ago, ive had blitz plus, and i used the code for max GUI. I want to know if it is possible to create an executable file from blitzmax

Unlike BlitzPlus Blitzmax ALWAYS "builds" an executable. You will find it in the same folder as the source code of the program.

how do i mask an image?

How do I mask an image? If you have a paint program like paintshop pro or photoshop, you can include an alpha channel that does the masking for you... simply make the masked portions transparent, save as a .PNG, and when you select alphablend in BlitzMax, the transparent pieces will automatically be masked.

Dreamora (Posted 2006) [#12]

and if you want normal masking, set the maskcolor before loading the image and set the blend to MaskBlend before you draw the image.

how do i make my fonts like the image files i find with letters and numbers. ive looked at loadimagefont and setimage font, and there are no problems, except that its not showing the font in my text. I know i made a stupid mistake somewhere along the line... ;)
