I have been programming for about 22 years as a hobby. This is the third basic programming
language I have used. I created this program in Visual Basic 6, which I have been using for 4
years. I am not sure if this code is compatible with Visual Basic 5 or Visual Basic Net (VB7).
I do not wish to have anyone use this program or any part of it in their or someone else's
program. I have not had any problems or errors with it, but you are using it at your own risk.
 I have added a lot of comment lines to the program - it explains a lot more in general than this notepad file does. I programmed (created) Pinwheel about 1 and 1/2 years ago, so without further effort, I do not have a comment line for everything in the program. It is not easy to remember exactly what every procedure I created does or is for. I have created over 200 programs in Visual Basic 6. I have created 250 - 300 programs in other basic languages.

This program presents moving shapes using several colors. Some parts use a color shading prodecure I created about 3 years ago. Some parts are controlled by random values.

I hope you enjoy viewing my program and I hope you can learn something from it, just as I have
learned from other peoples' programs. I also compose my own music, playing bass, 6-string, 12-string, flute, piano and singing. I record my own songs, performing all the instrument and
vocal tracks myself. I love expressing myself in a creative way, whether it is with music or
programming. My desire to do so will never end.

Have a great day!
