actually, that feature - it seemed to be a very small thing - but actually needed to completly rewrite very deep parts of the whole code to have it working.
i tryed to avoid to implement it with all of my will, i had to fight myself to even start implementing it. it was like a shock, when i realized that i must implement it. i feelt like an unicorn, and people was shitting tons of buckets in my magic garden, recoloring my sould to dark blue and rotating a knife in my heart.
i had to got myself together, and by almost daily 16 hours of work for almost 8-10 days, i implemented immediately the missing feature that they wanted. i had no other way to step forward in this situation., i ,,had to eat my hat'', there was no other chance. after i implemented, i immediately released it, and sleeped like a day. so two days later i checked the comments, they immediately shutted up. instead, some of them gratulated for implementing it, and some among them actually buyd the thing.
so whats the conclusion? if i had not implemented that feature back then, i would have lost a significant amout of money. a true programmer - and this is true for every other profession too - always listens to the REAL community, and always folows the demands of the community. only cowards deleting comments, for example, people who just want to shit from other people's work with big ego, without serving they demands properly. there is no tomorow for such corporations like imgtec. corporations like that are the shame of capitalism.
