Closing time depends on what type of Post Office it is. If it's what the Post Office calls a Drop and collect, then they open at 7am, close at 10:30pm. If it's with a WHSmith, then they close at the same time as WHSmith.

Same shit again! Cannot get access to the Post Office drop off point. Lying bastards it's within a WH Smiths which was open.

They just hand parcels to local couriers anyway once they reach the UK. With the added possibility that anything electrical bought from either of those might burn your house down thanks to China's laissez-faire approach to safety regulations.

They used to be fine here too. Now I've had 3 failed deliveries from a 'Prime' customer.

It depends where you are. Amazon are fine here. Evri are usually OK. Yodel also OK. The names I dread (currently) are DPD, DHL and UPS.

Amazon are bloody useless! We have no problem delivering your parcel IF YOU DON'T MIND SOME RANDOM EMPLOYEE BANGING ON YOUR DOOR AT 10PM AT NIGHT! I've started sending my deliveries to a local Post Office...So they turn up after the Post Office is closed!

Just Testing this..


This code is for copying a dragged file into your project Folder, if its not already there
Code  blitzmax Select
Strict

Function CopyFileIfNotExists(OriginalFileURL:String, DestinationFolderURL:String)  					'Copies file to Destination only if its not already there
	Local FN:String = ExtractFilenameFromURL(OriginalFileURL)
	Local NFU:String = DestinationFolderURL + FN
    		If FileExists (NFU) = False
		CopyFile(OriginalFileURL, NFU)
		Print "File copied to Destination"
    		End If
End Function

Function ExtractFilenameFromURL:String(FileNameAndPath:String, ReturnWithoutFileEnding = False, ReturnEvenIfNoFileEnding = True)	

	If ExtractExt(FileNameAndPath) = "" And ReturnEvenIfNoFileEnding = False Then Return
	
	Local LenFNA = Len(FileNameAndPath)
	
	For Local I = LenFNA To 1 Step - 1
	
		Local MidFNA:String = Mid(FileNameAndPath, I, 1)
		
		If MidFNA = "/" Or MidFNA = "\" Then

			Local MaybeFileName:String = Right(FileNameAndPath, LenFNA - I)

			If ReturnWithoutFileEnding = True Then MaybeFileName = StripAll(MaybeFileName)
			
			Return MaybeFileName

		End If
		
	Next
	
	Return FileNameAndPath	
End Function

Function FileExists(URLAndFilename:String = "")
	Local TempStream:TStream
	TempStream = OpenStream(URLAndFilename, False, False)
	If TempStream <> Null Then
		CloseStream(TempStream)
		Return True
	End If	
End Function

There is a forum for general media discussion (scroll down the list), but if there is code involved, then yeah, might be better to stay in the realms of the BlitzMax bit!  8)

You can move it if you think its the wrong place. I dont mind :)

Just another image of a different project




Eventually my main goal is to make music.
so soon maybe ill be able to do it my way.

EDIT: I've shuffled it to the Worklogs section, I think that will be a better home for it as it's about your projects - Dabz

I always love to help those who want help
and save them all the trouble i went through.
so if you have questions, ask..
also i have an idea to make one big shared library
like a type of an engine
same like modules but without compile so it can be accessed easily and
changed
