I also hate it when people say "I want to write an app that does a, b, and c. Can you post example code that does that?"
It gets really old.

As long as I am going to be notified of the replies to a message I originally posted (and initially received a kind & helpful answer to) 8 MONTHS AGO, I feel the need to respond.
First of all, I apologize for the stupid question. With all the people willing to help (here, with web site tutorials and YouTube videos) I didn't think I needed to pass a basic skills test first before opening my mouth.
I did finish this app and it is available in the App Store. You might be interested to know that the answers to the questions I received was a very small percent of all the code I wrote over a period of a few months. Lazy you say? No. I had never written an application before. It's been a learning experience every day. I appreciate the help I received from those willing to give it.
Second, your claim that my post asks for an entire app to be written from a line of code is absurd. Nobody in here is asking for that. You make it sound like I copy & paste the answer to my question:
[myImageView setFrame:CGRectMake(myImageView.frame.origin.x,
myImageView.frame.origin.y,10,20)];
into xcode and hit Build&Go and I have a working app. Clearly impossibly!
Some of the people here are beginners (like me) who are asking for help with pieces of their code, not the entire thing. We are learning just like you did when you started out. If you want to help us, great. If not, please keep your replies to the posts you feel are worthy of your response.
