WinPenguins Modified for Visual Studio 2005


            I've been playing around with WinPenguins for awhile now. It's a fun little desktop toy. WinPenguins is a Win32 rewrite of the X-Windows application XPenguins. It creates cute little penguins that wander around your Windows desktop. The penguin images were taken from Pingus, a lemmings clone for GNU/Linux. WinPenguins was written by Michael Vines, all I did was change a few lines to make it compile in Visual Studio 2005. I plan to use it as the basis for one of my upcoming Halloween projects.

Download WinPenguins 0.5.1

 

Older code that does not compile in VS2005 can be found here:
