When you don't have money to pay a designer so you decide to do it by yourself.

It's my first try...

My first try at 3D printing. Currently selling it on Shapeways, good thing they were celebrating and didn't have to pay for transportation. What do you think of my joke? :D

She: "I am not getting anything out of these classes!!"

Me: "Try making some Objects first"

*Awkward silence*

Did this on my first programming exam.

int index = 0
int value = 0
try {
while true {
value += array[index]
index++
}
} catch NullPointerException {
System.out.print("Sum: " + value)
}

The task was to add together all numbers in an array.

I somehow aced the exam, but got called in to teachers office this is not the way to use exceptions.

I just plugged in usb in a first try! :)))

When your code compiles with no errors at first try..

*Working on Friend1's laptop*
*Friend1 leaves and his laptop gets locked unattended*
Friend2: Now what? We need to finish that thing on his laptop..
Me: Let me try..
*thinks*
*Enters Friend1's name*
*Laptop unlocks!*

When your program runs perfectly on the first try

Here's my piece of advice for new devs out there:

1 - Pick one language to learn first and stick with it, untill you grasp some solid fundamentals. (Variables, functions, classes, namespaces, scope, at least)

2 - Pick an IDE, and stick with it for now. Don't worry about tools yet. Comment everything you're coding. The important thing is to comment why you wrote it, and not what it does. Research git and start using version control, even when coding by yourself alone.

3 - Practice, pratice and pratice. If you got stuck, try reading the language docs first and see if you can figure it out yourself. If all else fails, then go to google and stackoverflow. Avoid copying the solution, type it all and try to understand it.

4 - After you feel you need to go to the next level, research best practices first, and start to apply them to your code. Try to make it modular as it grows. Then learn about tools, preprocessors and frameworks.

5 - Always keep studying. Never give up. We all feel that we have no idea of what we are doing sometimes. That's normal. You will understand eventually. ALWAYS KEEP STUDYING.

When I write a module from scratch and it compiles and runs on the first try 😂😎

I ended a 15 year friendship after realizing I've been used as an ego-boosting distraction, rather than a friend. I was sad at first, but then this program I wrote ran perfectly on the first try. 🕺

I just plugged my mouse in on the first try

Had my first official job review with the boss today. I should try to swear less but except for that it's going great!

Yay!

Tonight I want to try to setup an openvpn server with mysql based authentication because I'd love to somehow setup/become a vpn provider.

Of course there's a huge ass legal part but let's first make sure I know the technology of the top of my head!

Just ranting this out because I'm excited 😊

Guys! I did it! Its possible!

My task was to extension a code in php. I wrote 100 lines of code and then it workes on first try without any errors!

This is a milestone!

I am currently at vacation and staying at a campsite.
There is a WLAN called 'Seecamping1'.
Well I had to try cracking their password...
First attempt: The name of the WLAN, didn't work.
Second attempt: 1234567890

Guess what.
It worked lol

You lose your virginity as a dev when you first try async programming.

Guess who compiled a program with 0 errors and 0 warnings at first try!! 😀😀😀
Spoiler: not me

Implemented a feature without the hardware to run it on.
Hardware arrives on the last day before it has to be prepared for a trade show.
Feature works on first try.
I have never been so suspicions.

friend: cut the bullshit! your the IT guy, tell me, how you simply create a for e.x. Call of Duty?

My First Post

My friend recommended me to try this app, and I was very impressed by the community here. 😀

I love you, devs!!

That moment when you get an image from a designer and it is ok to use in the app first try. 🧐

Correct size, format, transparency, spacing, colors and everything.

I thought that day would never come.

Today I wrote a regex expression that worked on the first try. Today I learned that the hardest code to debug is bugless code.

I like to do astronomy and (very) basic astrophotography. First shot I took was of our moon. I try to get out at least once a week (depending on the conditions).

Decided to update my rooted Oneplus One...
Everything worked on the first try without even having to do a bunch of reboots...
Hate it when weird stuff like that happens.

When you finally get the courage to write your first question on Stack overflow and you totally try to work it out well for 30 minutes and it gets a down vote within 5 minutes.

I stole this but it’s true when code works on the first try

The Rockstar feeling when you successfully insert USB drive in the first try B)

The feeling when you try to be creative on the first commit message but end up using 'Initial commit'...

One day, i'll vertically center a html element from the first try :')

when your first try to learn a new programming language, for example c++ and you are still new to coding:
"Wtf does it behave this way. How dafuq do pointers work...argh"

and then years later, you come back to c++, do a little revision and it all starts to fall into place and make sense. Man. That feeling.

Best decision ever was to have my phone muted all the time. My overall stress levels went down significantly. I encourage you to try the same. At first is kinda weird as you actually miss the fuss o having your phone vibrating or ringing all the time, but then all you have is peace.

YAY a JOIN query (MySQL) just ran successfully at the first try for the first time of my life!! I never understood joins but slowly getting there I guess :)

I'd love to develop stuff I find cool for a living and currently doing a first try but right now I can keep this up for a few more months until I have to get a job again :/

Seriously, the amount of motivation I have right now is goddamn high but money is going to become an issue soon.

Me as Junior Dev doing mysql first time, specifically INSERT test data to test db, sucess on first try.

My Senior co-worker says: WOW, Baby's first INSERT...... that sounds so wrong out of context xD

Simple but tasty dish.

It’s just scrambled eggs, Indian style.

Oh btw did I say? This is the first dish that I learnt and my favourite goto if I get stuck with golang And graphql.

Guys.

Please do try this combination.

As someone who uses both Windows and MacOS, it's fucking impossible to type {} or $ on the first try. EVERY DAMN TIME I DO IT WRONG!

For my final project as a first year computer engineer, I have to implement a FAT32 file system using a bare metal c++ compiler that will need to work on arduino uno/due....

I've only been in the computer engineering space for 2 months.
Not sure I can do it, but I'm going to try my best!
Wish me luck

I did it ma! I installed Arch Linux! On a pendrive!! First try too! Now I just have to slowly add things I need and configure it slowly.. Goodbye weekend :')

When your code actually works in first try

Plot Twist: My code worked on the first try.

I wish my colleagues try to google first and then ask me.

That moment when your function runs problem free on the first try.

The feeling of "Holy shit" and "I think I just spent an entire day's worth of luck in this snippet of code"

I don't think I'm gonna go outside today.

I'm curious to know, what was the first problem you've encountered, but solved through programming?

For me, since I'm a writer, I try to complete one random writing prompt a day.

However, I always have trouble deciding which one I should do. So, I created a prompt generator in Python.

Whenever I run the program it would display a random prompt.

When your friend tells you that he is stuck, that he tried everything which is possible and that you solved the problem on the very first try. xD

Today I have discovered that my fingers have become so accustomed to writing the word "vertex", that I can no longer write "vector" on the first try...

*while drinking tea at cafe area*

yesssss

I got solution

but wait let's first drink this tea then I will try this solution

what was solution ? wtf?

You know that you are a Programmer when you do code mentally and when testing it it works at first try

That moment when you kick off pytest

Let's try something different - Let's have a DevCaption challemge

Best caption gets a updoot spree

Here's the first pic

Is it normal that devRant crashes at first start and works at the second try? Does somebody else has got this problem?

If your code compiles at your first attempt, try again because you are breaking the Murphy lay. The space-time could be damaged.

My first times today:
First time a droplet on Digital Ocean.
First time Nginx.
First time trying to separate mail and website servers.
First time using UFW firewall.
First time Ubuntu webserver.
First try all alone configuration of my webserver.
First time installing all the stuff I need on my own, like MySQL, PHP and so on.
First time only SSH access from the beginning.
First time deployment from bitbucket.

Do you have any advise what I should think about. Or what software I will need. Or what I should think about.

Just now, I managed to compile my first linux kernel for my laptop on the first try :D
Granted, it was just a single line to get my touchpad to work, still a great feeling.
Also, Nvidia is still going strong on my laptop, no problems whatsoever :)

I passed my Security+ exam today!! :D first try!

After i read about Arch Linux for the first time here about a few weeks ago, i thought i'd give Antergos a try on my Laptop which i use solely for working. Found out that Matlab is supported, so i don't even need a VM.

First time having a Linux distro. Still feels a bit odd for being a Win only user for a long time, but i love the look and with every hour it gets easier. :)

Fuck yeah! Passed Dutch practical driving exam first try! 😁

WOW!

When you try to use 6-year old code for your first project as a beginner...

I've been waiting for my girlfriend to try some clothes for the past 40 mins and we were still in the first shop. I swear it's been 2 days since we arrived at the mall.

I just want to finish my first​ vuejs project (vuejs from a back end dev perspective is simply awesome).

Not a true devrant but a rant non the less. Save me devbrothers

Dev colleague when searching something on Windows:

* Click the windows button
* Click the search button next to windows button
* Type the search string
* Wait for results to load
* Use the mouse again to click the first search result.

I try to keep calm, but this annoys me soooooo much... 😫

When your internet doesn't work for 2 hours and you decide to create a stupid script to check the extension of each files and it works at the first try... WTF is happening?

My boss just came to me and demanded that we drop the first layer of security from our new servers so that the snake oil salesmen he used can open test it. I did try to explain that you don't remove security to test security.

Wow!
Makefiles are SO much cooler than I thought before

$< = the first dependency file
$^ = all the dependency files
$@ = the build target

AND if I try to build something who's dependencies don't exist, it'll automatically try to build them!

Wishing all the developers out there a very happy and prosperous new year. May your code always compile on the first try and your age gets incremented without bugs.

You know what irks me is whenever people ask me how to do something without Googling it first.

Like ffs whenever I Google the same issue because I don't know the answer either, it's literally the first fucking result. Like damn bruh.

I don't mind helping people at all, but please at least try to be an adult and Google the fucking question first.

Just saw this on FB..

Well I don't do much Webdev but that won't work for sure.

The first closing bracket ends the function Block -.-
Nice try Marketing team

For the first time in my life windows 10 repair fixed the PC?

Was getting bluscreen regarding unmountable boot, memory management then try to open it now it started diagnosing your PC.
Started reading devrant it fixed the problem and it works now.

@dfox you could try using progressive jpegs, so that images are not shown when they're fully loaded but, lower resolution is loaded first then pixels are added to it as time passes, really good for people with slow Internet.

Nothing makes me more suspicious than when my code runs and works on the first try

Tfw when you try to make your first rant and you have no idea what to talk about because there are hundreds of things that you can rant about and so you end up making a generic "I'm new here, please help me!" post.
I love computers :)

A project manager, a computer programmer and a computer operator are driving down the road when the car they are in here a flat tire. three men try to solve the problem

the project manager said: let's catch a cab and in ten minutes we will reach out destination.

the computer programmer said: we have drivers guide.I can easily replace the flat tire and continue our drive.

commuter operator said: first of all turnoff the engine and turn it on again. may be it will fix the problem.

suddenly a Microsoft engineer passed by and said: try to close all windows, get off the car, and then get on and try again.

I typed like 200 lines of c++ code and it ran on first try but i still dont like c++, no

When you implement an algorithm on your first try:

That wonderful first thing in the morning meeting where your PM who has zero coding experience wants to try to critique your already working code... 🙄"I think you forgot a semicolon here..."

"Oh yes I have to try three times until I put the USB in correctly"
Hey. If you have eyes, would you use them to fucking look at the ports of what you're trying to connect together and ONLY THEN try plug it in? If it still doesn't work the first time, you are probably an idiot.

1. Understand APIs without reading documentation.

2. Write correct code from first try.

3. Know to program in every language.

4. Create the perfect fully functional AI system.

5. Center objects vertically with one line CSS at target object.

TFW your graphics ASM code works on the first try.

Yes, it just happened to me, and it's a relatively annoying rectangle drawing routine.

Writing complicated ASM code and making it work on the first try is definitely a new thing to me, I feel so powerful! >:D

JavaScript Certified 😎🤓 its an MTA but still i got it on the first try even though i havent programmed in JS in a year 😅

First try at threads in java, search algorithm improved by 35% (56sec to 36sec). Pretty cool to learn 😊

Want to switch to Linux so bad right now. Getting tired of Windows and its shit. It took 12 minutes just to shut down!!! I'm just holding back until I finish this project I'm working on for Uni so I don't mess things up. After that it's goodbye Windows!
What distro should I try first? ;)

For a new project I first try to get an overview about the specifications, hosting and platform.

Depending on this information I decide which language and frameworks (if any) to use.

Basically always the first part I create is the backend, so I have all the data interfaces ready. For web stuff Postman is really useful.

Later on I start with the frontend, get myself really angry because I hate frontend.
Then I get into a hate-overdrive because browsers suck and I delete everything and quit.

The first time you try to google what an operator does by using the symbol in the search bar because you don't know the name for it.

Gj Mastercard! My card just got blocked because every time I want pay and 3D secure code is needed, every first SMS that day is delayed by 5 minutes so session expires and I have to try again...now it happened quite a few times and card got blocked. Fucking shit...

Well not bad for my first try eh? I implemented a std::vector-like container and it's about 4 times as fast as std::vector

When your code runs with no errors at first try

It can never just fucking work at the first try, can it.

"curl : The response content cannot be parsed because the Internet Explorer engine is not available, or Internet Explorer's first-launch configuration is not complete. Specify the UseBasicParsing parameter and try again."

Why the flying fuck do i have to configure some BS in internet explorer to use curl in Powershell? I thought IE was finaly dying, but nope!

I have reached a stage in my career that when my code works in the first try, I'm more skeptical than excited about it.

I never realized USB Type C was built to be reversible. I always assumed that I got it right every time in the first try.

What's happened to me

After doing a regular CV update, I realised I started coding more than a quarter of a century ago... I then remembered the first command the succeedded on my first PC.

format C:

There was a book that expained how to format a floppy disk (format A:) but it didn't work. At that time I had no idea what floppy is but I knew that C: works, so I thought I'd give it a try...

Oh, was there laughter in the repair shop :)

Hahaha oh man... A devrant user just deleted one rant because of “toxic” comments on it😂

That’s what happens when devs try JS for the first time. It drives you mad.

I recorded a video of the whole rant by the way... not sure if I should share it tho 👀

My innocent-pretending “I din do nuffing” ass after destroying multiple managers careers by manipulating the company opinion against them bc they try to play that scumbag move first but I’m just more conniving, powerful, and just a fucking beast.

My first unity try :D

So I was just watching a show with subs and see this line:

"So just try and catch me!"

catch {}

Oh yea. Got an interview on the first try to the best devshop in town. Exited! Let's hope our interests meet. Applying for the first time in 10 years. Feels like going on a first date. =D

The moment when you edit your code and run it but nothing changes and you try looking for the mistake in yor code but the only mistake is that you forgot to compile it first...

I'm going to try a 'zero-day' strategy for learning c++ (at first I was also a little confused about the term zero-day).

The name zero-day does make sense in that there are zero days of me not doing x

So, for this strategy, I have to program something (doesn't matter how small) in c++ every day for a month. After that I'll do the same for python

Then I can make an educated decision of what programming language I like the most

I want to thank @teganburns for his c++ video about c++, that's the reason why I chose to try c++ first

So I'm not one to show off something buuuuuuut, I'm a programmer and can barely draw a straight line let alone do pixel art, but I decided fuck it; let's try again and considering the left figure was the first compared to the right being the 10th, I'd say that's not to fucking bad :-D

I've written two different real time audio resampling algos (called on source and called on target) using linear interpolation, both in typescript, both work on first try and both perform great. I feel like the omniscient god of web audio processing.

Not a rant but I spent 30 minutes writing a fix for 2 integration tests while screen sharing. Ran the tests and they both pass first try, no exceptions, typos or silly mistakes. 2 additional unrelated tests also started passing. It felt good.

refactored model code to be async and use promises. executed successfully on first try.

Thought I'd try out Asp.Net Core + React + Redux, at first I got shocked from the TypeScript shit I saw, but an hour later, I like what I'm seeing :P

First wikipedia asks me donation. Then tells me facts 98% Indians do not donate. And when I try to donate, it doesn't let me donate without PAN. I am a student.

Wrote my first bash scripts today.

One installs a few packages (Brackets, VLC, Nodejs, chrome) and the other gets my preferred theme and icon set from gnome-look.org with curl and piping straight to tar -xz in tge proper folders.

They're simple, really, but you have to start from somewhere.

Now with that said, I'll let you know if they work ln the first try--about to install Ubuntu on a different machine

• I listen to music
• I eat/drink something
• I go to the toilet and think about unrelated stuff (which might actually provide a solution)
• I go to sleep

I try the top one first, and if it doesn't work, the next one, and so on, until I am done with the last one.

That feeling when you get unconditional sign-off with zero defects raised during user testing and crush the performance testing on first try. Proud of my team. Feels good man

Agency hires me to convert a 4 column + sidebar + pattern backgrounds email to responsive, for a big client, I make a redesign, simplifying it (less columns, flat...) to avoid issues, client insists, exactly the same design is needed.

I tell him its almost impossible but I will try, and try, and try, many times, but on their old Outlook, some email parts are not aligned (just that), try, and try, many hours, many days beyond budget... all the times since first explaining that perfection is not possible with all possible email clients, and like 7% is using outlook... At that point, and before, email was so well.

Finally I put an end to this, tell them to pay and leave me alone, as they didn't take my advises and warnings serious, not my fault.

This story is nothing until the discovery I made today: the agency had signed a contract with the client, a bank, in that contract there was the obligation to replicate exactly the same design and should be perfect in all email clients...

I just wrote unit tests for like the first time in my life (didn't find it useful in university, someone else handing in the project always did that). It cut my coding time by a factor of 3! You should try this one if haven't already, it really saved me a lot of headache right now.

Finally got my anime api somewhat working.

Tomorrow (or in a couple of hours 😅) I'll try to register my first domain and and get my first vps(?) up and running

The api features the data from /r/animethemes, so it'll have 2000+ animes entries with opening / ending urls.

I've also tried to implement some form of searching ('%term%' stuff 🤣), but you better know your abime by its romanized name, or you're gonna have a bad time since I have no alternative names per anime yet.

In love with Laravel events, listeners and mailables. What a beautiful way of doing this. Can't say how much I love this framework. <3

Can't wait to implement redis and queues. Am excited to try this for the first time. Share exp. if you have, pls.

When I first started coding, I always assumed my code was working without testing it. Now, I assume the output is wrong if get it right on the first try :/

Did a big refactor with no tests and the code works first try 🤔🤔

When you spend more than 1 hour trying to find a solution to your code project and then the solution was way to simple to work and it works at first try 😨 (feeling stupid right now 😢)

Two new Laptops arrived at our office today. Tried to install Manjaro on a USB with different Windows Tools because Windows Laptop was the easiest to access. Nothing Fucking worked!

Searched and found a Linux laptop.

First try success

dd is love ♥️

i transferred shitload of code from one class to another, stackoverflowed something and copy pasted it because i have never seen that this needs to be written like that, hit run compile, open up my logs expecting a mass crash and possibly explosion. it worked on the first try

Y'all Vim (anti)fanboyz be like "ha! try to exit Vim!"

Also, if you have any tips for me, you can leave them in the comments too

Just tried to get the oneplus vr... First try:404 at the end of the placed order. Second try: bug on site, just before the previous 404. Third try: out of stock. XD

As much as I love programming, I like to help others when they're in trouble with code (even thoe sometimes I'm not that helpful) but I hate when someone asks me for help and when I try that person acts he knows it all and that my suggestions are stupid... I mean why did he ask for help in the first place?

When the test you spent an hour writing passes on the first try… not sure if I should be happy or anxious.

Unity's "quirk" messed me up again. This time, I wanted the time when the key was pressed as precisely as possible, independent of the framerate.
So I put the input reading routine into the thread pool, which causes the first few readings to throw null reference exceptions. No biggie; the system needs a few moments to warm up. So, I try-catch that part.

But when I build the game, as soon as I reach the part where the game tries to read the input value, it hard-crashes before try-catch can act 🤦

Teach useful knowledge !
Back in first year of engineering school (most of students weren't going to study CS), the introduction course we had was on recursive functions.

The feeling you have when new code compiles without error from the first try!

The moment when you try Android development for the first time, you get a bluescreen out of nowhere and after that there are problems with the jdk in your project... I do not get it. Please windows... I just wanted to try something new...😰

It does not feel motivating at all... :/

Your code looks like it runs on the first try.

The feeling when you write a long messy algorithm and you think to yourself "this is never going to work" but then it runs exactly as you intended first try! 😎

It booted, after months of working on a god damn simulation with various BIOSs revisions and fixes, with millions of kernel builds and a million of fixes of recipes. It booted from a first try. I almost fainted :D

I still don't understand everything with docker-compose & shit but so much things are way more clear when you try them out!

I'm writing a special (fictional) story and I'll post it next as soon as it's done (in an hour or so). I've written articles before, but this will be my first ever try at a (very short) fictional story 😅

Stay tuned.

PS
Have you ever written fiction?

Just launched a successful deployment today. Took 4 months to build everything. It's probably not a big deal but I'm just really happy today that everything worked right away, and almost no deployment hiccups at all.

Only one issue popped up, but come to find out it's a particular thing about the Prod environment and nothing to do with my code.

Gonna go celebrate now, before more work comes in. (hey, can you refactor this for me?)

Dude. Listen.
The deployment didn't go 100% well, fine. The main menu got fucked up, fine.

But no one gives a fuck when you send an 15 words long email to 6 persons just whining about the fact that no delivery go well on the first try.

Learn to shut the fuck up sometimes.

Captains Log:

Day 2 of trying to get SQL database to work with JDBC application.

I've built a try/catch method and it throws up the message that IntelliJ can't find the JDBC driver.

More research to be done. My first officer duck buddy has no input for me.

It's going to be a long day.

Started my first private App project using all the goodies of 2017 android development like TDD, Android architecture components (hence MVVM), kotlin (which I yet have to learn), RxJava2 (if I need it additionally to AAC) and maybe try to set up a CI environment.

Wish me luck guys and girls 😁

What do you guys think about Ubuntu on windows 10, any first impressions?

I wanna try it out coz my new Laptop comes pre installed with 10 and installing Ubuntu is kinda very problematic in high end laptops according to a little research I did.

That euphoric moment when your program works on the first try and you just feel like the god of all programming.

I always try to break my code when it works without errors the first time.

Just to be sure that the code I wrote is being used.

Anyone else?

The best feeling you can have, is when rewriting big parts of code and it works perfectly first try.

Release on Monday === almost 10h of code today... Though it's just an internal release, so not that serious really. Though it's be fun to have something we've been working on for half a year working decently the first time people actually get to try it... Well, well...

When your script works first try without testing 🥵

When you don't write unit tests and expect it to work on the first try

- You know, I have been showed proofs that there are half days where you almost pushed anything, if nothing, you haven't been productive these days

First off, bitch, I'd like to see you try to make something useful from Drupal.
Second, apologizes but you can't commit nervous breakdowns. Can't say I haven't try.

Read docs, try, google, try, ask.
Do not ask too early, come up with something you already did when asking. But don't hesitate to ask when you're stuck.
No body wants to leave you on your own but you must try something before you ask.
Do not be afraid to share your opinion. It could be that your view is wrong then you need to correct it. But also it could be you have a point and it will be useful. The first will be helpful to you, the second to everyone in your team.

So recently I've been taught how to make Virtual Machines in school and I did made an Ubuntu vm because it was loaded on a disk my teacher gave to me. And I loved it, it was my first time with Linux and I was so impressed, so I put some more versions of Linux on a flash drive to copy and I'm going to try them all out! The other versions I'm going to try out are Mint, Fedora, Manjaro, and Kali!

You wanna know if you are a real developer?
Google "string" and see if you get as first result underwear or not.
Try "DD" and see if you get again some underwear results or a ubuntu wiki article about "the great data destroyer" ;)

What's the most number of lines you have written for a project without testing and then had it run the first time? Also for context, what language did you use?

Feeling pretty good with my 200+ in C#.

In the lab:
"Look! I have compiled and that gave me no errors! On the first try!"
So I look closer and
"Dude, ehm.., you are compiling the wrong file..."
Then he tries to compile the right class and the compiler returned errors on errors
"You know what? I hate you."
Never laughed that loud

First time joined js13k competition, without concrete reason. Just wanted to try out am I able to use my JS knowledge and fit game into 13kB. And actually, I'm really happy with final shape of game. Did anyone else participated? :)

Fuuuuu rtl languages!!
I love them, they look fancy, true.. but are a total nightmare to select text. My stüpid brain will never get it right on the first try..or second or... :/

Getting a lot of headaches? Try replacing coffee/energy drinks with ice cold H2O first thing in the morning. It works after a week and it shocks your body into waking up faster.

*my code runs on the first try*

me: Holy fuck. What the fuck have I done?!

had my first try on stimulants today. wish i had them all my life, finally can function

I once managed to replicate data from a scientific paper by writing a C++ program, at the first try. I still can't believe it to this day.

Does anyone of you has experience with lowbd? If yes, feel free to share!

Image is my messed up first try :P

Having my first memory leak problem ever. This sucks. I've tried what seems like everything. Forcing garbage collection every time I press a key to try and debug the issue. Fuck. I have 'using' blocks everywhere, and I have no idea what I'm doing wrong.
