Besides, what exactly would be the problem on linux or other platforms, anyway?

The best is the newest one by far, maybie if randy can't fix it or cant be bothered he could post on the forum (and then the zdoom guru's can think of a solution(ie as code or ideas ot fix it))

I don't care as long as it helps randy!

Completely ignoring 4 pages of replies because I have no time to read them, I vote for the second option with the explanation box.

Well, I think the dying space marine kinda gives away the fact that it's not an MS error... ity's not that difficult to destinguish between the two. Too many people act without thinking first...

I like the seccond one, it looks more professional and user friendly. If you ask me, people that are being anal about it because it looks like MS' are just being... urm, anal for the sake of being... urm, anal

. STOP BEING ANAL DOGGAMMIT!

Yes, the dying marine gives it away but you can't expect the average user to recognize that. Even I thought it was a joke when I first saw it ('Hey, I improved ZDoom. Now it will report all crashes to Micro$oft') The idea itself is ok but you have to be extremely careful so that the end user doesn't misunderstand what is happening.

Spoiler: Something the end user WILL recognise

Nothing post about it. I've got hours of marking to do this weekend.

Hope you did well BTW.

Thanks. I think I've done well in 3 of 4 I've done so far. (English is the one that I KNOW I've done crap in, which was far from unexpected.)
