Ah. I think they changed their configuration with the introduction of Xamarin Studio, which was intended to support the Starter and Indie versions.

So Visual Studio Community Edition with Xamarin Starter Edition and you have a platform for nice Android/iOS development using your .NET skills...I think I will try it...
Skipper: We'll fix it.
Alex: Fix it? How you gonna fix this?
Skipper: Grit, spit and a whole lotta duct tape.

I haven't looked yet, but this does look like a nice intro. Not having forms, though, is a major fail point for me. There is light at the end of this tunnel though: a new client asked me yesterday if I had Xamarin experience, giving me the idea that if I can demonstrate basic competence, I may get to do Xamarin dev for them, on their license.

We've teamed up with a company just outside of Toronto to get us a more reliable supply of T-shirts. The current CafePress T-shirts just aren't cutting the mustard so these guys have stepped up to print us some decent threads and get them shipped in a sensible time. Plus we've managed to get the cost down significantly (with a goal to getting it down further).
If you're interested in a T-shirt while also being a guinea pig for the new store, you're welcome to give the CodeProject T-shirt store[^] a burl.
If you have any problems, find bugs, or have suggestions for CodeProject stuff you'd like to buy, yell loudly[^]. I did warn the guys that putting together site for 11M highly trained (or thereabouts) software developers was something only the brave do. They forged ahead regardless.

If you select a man's t-shirt, then select a size, then hover near the size label some text appears over the size you have selected. The little i icon that I was expecting to tell me how big 5XL really is does nothing.
Firefox version something.

Thanks. I've added an item[^] in the Bugs and Suggs forum

Free TShirts for the MVPs?

Doesn't Sean deliver your MVP certificates in person?
If you get an email from him be careful - the lobster costume he used this year was...disturbing...

You lucky person! The Mankini and nipple tassles combination was bad enough, but...

We tried that, but they were causing retinal damage.
Orange will appear in an upcoming design.

Put me down for an orange on white one when available! Black is too depressing!

It's annoying when you get burls on your T-shirt -- if you don't believe me, give it a whirl.
I wanna be a eunuchs developer! Pass me a bread knife!

Giving it a whirl in Australia would require taking it off and swinging it, possibly causing someone to lose an eye.
A burl is far safer.

lol.
What do you get when you cross a joke with a rhetorical question?
The metaphorical solid rear-end expulsions have impacted the metaphorical motorized bladed rotating air movement mechanism.
Do questions with multiple question marks annoy you???

Poor judgement in no way implies poor quality, Chris. But why did Bob get relegated to the backside? He should sit proudly where, in lesser product lines, an alligator would be perched! And he should be much larger, with holographic eyes that follow the watcher.
Will Rogers never met me.

Awesome news.

I started to order one, but shipping costs to U.S. for the cheapest method were almost as much as the shirt, and all other methods were more than the cost of the shirt.
|
|
|
|
|
Shipping to the US is a little more expensive than CafePress, but the total cost is way, way less. We're hoping to get shipping costs (and T-shirt costs) down, but for now we're happy to simply have a far better quality product at a far cheaper price overall.
cheers
