Job Van Dam:
Another good but small reason the original slider progress bar was good was the fact it was alot easier to implement and the code was more manageable too

For the current one you have to do the math to make the steps look smooth between the start and end point.
The code is also kinda ugly because not only will you have a gigantic conditional but you may also (in my case anyway) have the same image repeated many times over expect with different coordinates. I thought it would be better than using sub images with alot of transperency.

With the old one you just specify the image, the start and stop points and you're done and it's smoother than a baby's bottom.

And one more: you might just run out of letters (we have only 24, right?).

wintermute23:
26, each of which can be used in upper or lower case, for a total of 52 sub-images per strip.

And if you need more than that, there's no reason why you can't spread it across two or more image strips. If you really wanted to, you could use 2,704 images, if you could get them all to fit in the buffer...
