After some pause, I prepared new article on TBGL related topic - off screen rendering. Thanks to earlier discussed concept of "under one roof", the article is available on ThinBASIC website directly: Beyond TBGL: Offscreen rendering, why and how? (download visible after logging in)
As this technique is not supported on all hardware, it has not been incorporated to TBGL directly, but it is available to anyone via ThinBasic unit.
If you need to render images bigger than screen resolution, this article will fill you in with the background info, sample implementation and basic example. Petr Schreiber, admin

Dear friends, I just disabled the registration for new members on this forum for two reasons:
- TBGL support is switching to "everything ThinBASIC under one roof"
- increased number of spammers started to appear
The second item is quite clear, but what does the "everything ThinBASIC under one roof" mean?
To not split power and focus of people interested in TBGL and other modules, the ThinBASIC website now offers ideal services to keep all ThinBASIC related info "under one roof" or simply "on one place". How is this achieved?:
- TBGL module has its own subforum on the ThinBASIC website
- TBGL articles move to dedicated section at ThinBASIC website as well
The TBGL subforum is already packed with examples, tutorials and tools, and the articles in at ThinBASIC website have easy to manage editing system, which allows updating them to current state without struggle. This way you can be sure the version of article you read is really the latest one. Note: You can see images and attachements after logging in
For the mentioned reasons I would like to invite all users of this forum to join us at the main ThinBASIC forum, I am looking forward to meet you there! Petr Schreiber, admin

Dear friends, today, on 23rd August 2010, it is exactly 5 years since the first ThinBASIC public release leaved the gates of factory and spread to whole world. To celebrate this event, I present you with new article on TBGL, focused on bokeh rendering (what an oxymoron) purely using ThinBASIC resources. I hope you will like staying in ThinBASIC world even in the coming years!
As usually, you can reach the article anytime later from Articles section. Petr Schreiber, admin

One of the possible uses of TBGL are scientific visualizations. Recently, the module has been used for displaying the data set of PreComputed Scan Matching, while the images created were used for numerous articles on mobile robotics. The picture belows shows model of single building floor with ray-obstacle collision web. Petr Schreiber, admin

Dear friends, let me proudly announce new series of TBGL programming articles, the Movie FX. They focus on creating basic visual effects and postprocessing of the video using ThinBASIC and VirtualDub. The first articles in the series focuses on composition of still photo and animated CG object together, to create illusion of UFO flying over the city. You can read about the approach in PDF form, download script and have a look at final video . Petr Schreiber
