I had a quick look and certainly #2 and #3 above are not solutions, but further questions..........

Thanks. I'll keep it in mind. My question is out.

Two of your answers aren't, not realy - they look like comments to me:
Remove/Overwrite padding - BMP C[^]
How Do I Create Applications With C++[^]
Really they look like requests for information - which should be a comment - rather than an attempt at a "proper answer" - and that may explain why they were down voted. We'll never know for sure, because some people don't like to admit they downvoted as it may affect their reputation. And there is no way for us to find out who it was.
The other one looks like an answer, but probably the same downvoter doesn't care for it. Maybe he wanted to post the same thing and you beat him to it? Or he wanted to leave a rude answer that the OP doesn't understand the question and vote to close the question itself. We will never know...
I've upvoted the answer to compensate, but the other two I haven't as they don't deserve upvotes in my opinion!

Thanks for your reply. I'll keep it in mind for the future.

Just try to ignore it. It's not as if rep points are exchangeable for money...
And if it's someone who doesn't like you and is just downvoting everything you do (and we all get those from time to time) ignoring it robs them of the reaction they want and they get bored more quickly!

I'm hopefully waiting for the day when this will happen.

You're waiting hopefully? 
What do you think I'm doing?

Now that was bold...

Alex: Fix it? How you gonna fix this?

There is no such thing as a downvote. And those aren't answers either.

Ok.
I can see why you're burned by a one vote but since Yorick died there hasn't been anyone but Ophelia to mourn his loss.
Now ... as for the "answer"(s) ... they are "comment"(s).

Bob went to Bangkok for New Year's, again, and he's a little worse for wear, but, he wanted you to have this selfie so you'd know he's not in critical condition: [^].
I made the mistake of saying to him: "You look about as shyte-faced as you did a year ago."
His reply to me, unfortunately, contains language with metaphors, analogies, and similes, which cannot be repeated here due to the Lounge rules-of-conduct.
cheers, Bill

If you have an important point to make, don't try to be subtle or clever. Use a pile driver. Hit the point once. Then come back and hit it again. Then hit it a third time - a tremendous whack.

I had an old application do that in 2008. It turned out that the program had the year 2007 hard coded. It cost me $97, which I got back after I joined a bunch of people in a lawsuit about the issue. The company was going to have people buy a new version every week, based on data gathered from an investigation. That company no longer exists.
I think the high level management are now working at McDonalds, as no one wants to hire someone that tries to scam people like that.
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???

They also stole and sold private data, such as social security numbers, emails, and even credit card numbers. Some managers are still in jail AFAIK.

Thank you - that was a joke, but never mind! 
To "tag" someone in a message, go to the profile page and look just below the user name. You'll see a link that shows with an "@" at the front. Enter that into a message thus: @User-11407112 and it'll get linkified and an email sent.
