I've recently implemented a fun project called "bildskript". With this program you can draw "circuits" like this:
And then run this. Here for example clicking on one of the tappers lets the counter go up, clicking on the other lets it go down.
To draw circuits, you can either use the built-in editor, or use any painting program you'd like. What basically happens is that anything (mostly) red is interpreted as components, black pixels are lanes, gray pixels are used to make a lane "hop" over another lane. To split a lane in two you must use a "dup" (else the lane walking algorithm would've been **** to implement).
Special thing here is that a lane can not only transfer values 1 or 0, but also any number. You can write simple things, or for example write an actually working calculator like this:
The first one to write a compiler that compiles a simple language to image scripts like that gets a beer

Haha, just draw something and see if it works EDIT: ah, and well the basic interpreter thing did not take too long, maybe 2-3 days, the "studio" ui and making it a little more comfortable took a little longer though.

That aside, it looks cool and interesting. First guy to implement a fully working CPU on this gets a second beer from me.
lol i guess it is
Oh yeah, that would be badass. A *little* crazy but amazing. I mean, look at what the Minecraft-guys accomplish
I was one of the prominent early engineers with the Redstone Development Foundation for a while. What really fun was we would go onto public servers, create some type of establishment underground, and then spend the next few days making a CPU in survival mode.

And lag the absolute crap out of the server, I presume.

In GIT there are only png, layout and textfiles.
Did I miss anything? I'd like to try this
lol! I can't believe I actually forgot the binary release link. I edited my initial post, you can get the .zip with both the jar and the sources here: http://91.206.143.88/bildskript/bildskript-0.1.zip
