Calling Conventions (C/C++)

[ZugZugZealot]

Anyone got a simplified/dumbed down explanation of them, preferably relative code of with and without?

All I really know about them is to use CALLBACK for wndproc function and WINAPI for the main function of a window's program instance.

I think that this looks like a pretty good explanation:
