22 December 2008: News: CGM UKScene Radio is back online
News from Solorize: "I have decided to start up the station again! With Nectarine being down I thought I should start streaming again as I do have a lot of demoscene music, which I am sure a lot of people would like to hear again. I have put together a very simple website (but I will revamp it when I have more time): http://www.lmp.d2g.com, and the new stream URL is: http://www.lmp.d2g.com:8020/listen.pls. I have opted for a 32kbps parametric stereo AAC+ stream as it will allow more listeners and still gives good quality sound."

20 December 2008: Hugi #31 Online Edition & Democoding for Beginners
As we got many requests how to start coding demos, I decided to publish an online edition of Hugi #31. This issue contains the Demo Coding Tutorial by Polaris of Northern Dragons. For this tutorial, a new section has been added to the Hugi website: "Democoding for Beginners". New links will be included from time to time.

06 November 2008: Diskmags wanted!
The "International Diskmag Encyclopedia" is a collection of reviews of PC demoscene-related diskmags that were either published fully in the English language or at least had an English corner. The first part of this encyclopedia was published in Hugi #35, the second part will be in Hugi #36. I'm looking for more diskmags in order to cover them in this encyclopedia. Currently the encyclopedia features the following diskmags:
Amber, Amnesia, AnotherMag, Armor of the Gods, Autark, Bad News, Becanne, Belgian Scene Report, Budyn, Bytes of Wisdom, Caustic Verses, CFX News, Channel, Cheese, Contrast, Daskmig, Defcon, Delta, Demojournal, DemoNews, Dragon, Eedmag, Eurochart, Flash, Fleur, Fuzzby, Genetic Dreams, Heroin, Hoax, Imphobia, Infinity, Infused Bytes, Insight, Lookain Fanz, Luna, Maniac, Mudia Art, New World Order, Obtain, Pain, Palantir, Parrot, Planet, Public Incantation, Pulse, Restless, Rift, Savage Charts, Scenial, Shine, Showtime, Smok, Splash, Static Line, Subkult, Sunray, Tankard, Testimony of the Ancients, The Scene Post, The Utopians News, Total Disaster, Totem, Trip, Trip 2 Hell, TUHBzine, Userflag, Vinyl, v.O.L.V.o, What?!, Wilby, Worldcharts (Future Crew), Worldcharts (Hoodlum), Xtravaganza, Yahoo, Zen Little Tattles, Zine.
Of some of these diskmags, I don't have all issues, for example of Userflag I only have issue 11.
If you have a diskmag that matches the criteria given above and doesn't appear in this list, please send it to me. Thank you!

04 November 2008: Hugi #35 released, and Hugi Compo #27 ended
Hugi #35 has been released. It can now be downloaded from this website. Another news: Hugi Size Coding Competition #27 (the ANSI image compression compo) has ended. You can now download the source pack of all the entries at the Hugi Compo website. We wish you a happy reading and analyzing of the entries!
