I miss the yellow. All I see now is blue. When did that change happen

If this has been posted before, point it out and I will organise for this thread to be merged or dropped.

This is a post about the cicada principal being applied to background images.

I will...

I am not a flash evangelist or anything, but it still just seems like re-inventing the wheel to me, and making it a far more complex wheel at that.

I wouldn't really be surprised to see a Flash...

...and if one does download the source code and opens even just main.js in wordpad, you will see why AS will be around for a bit of a while yet, unless there are lots of JS gods around.

Here is...

I'm still not convinced.

Yes, color cycling is pretty cool, I agree. Those examples are very nice ...but we are still talking primarily animation, Flash is a good animation tool and it has a very...

That is certainly not a Flash killer. Once people realise how clunky the code and how limited it is, it will stop being something people lust after. It might get better at basic animations, so...

You've been busy over there at DA as well, just been looking at your gallery.

It seems to be a lot of weirdness. I had never even heard of 'cosplay' until I re-joined DA a few weeks ago, and there...

Sounds like the last 8 has been good though. good to hear.

seems very true in the last few weeks.

It is almost like some porn BB somewhere has announced that DA is a good place to host your collection of self-shot porn images. The number of newbies...

it all seemed so important back then :)

I guess so, but now the self-obsessed and fetishers have really found it and everyone thinks that because they have a camera in their phone, they have suddenly become a great photographer.

I just...

I rejoined recently and it's just a bit sad. There really have been some great artists nurtured there, doing some fine art. It's just that they have not been able to stop the self-obsessed from...

How long has deviantArt basically been a porn site full of idiots with phone cams taking pictures of their junk in a mirror, or posting porn content for 13 year olds to view?

I hope nobody has a...

Until I realised this was a 10 year old thread, I was going to suggest looking under the cushions on the couch. that's where I always find mine.

wow, seeing the names of members long absent brought back great memories. It would be really good to know what has happened in their lives.

Like many others, I don't post much any more, but I lurk...

I kind of see it as a bit of a gimmick as well. At first I was amazed by the demos on their website, but tying the viewing of the image to the flash player seems like it will limit the uses this...

I agree, but they are not targetting development of all flash players. They are targetting the development of the flash player for mobile devices with ARM architecture. So no new Android OS or...

Whatever the reasons, no more mobile flash player development is a pretty important issue when it comes to the op's thread title - ...seems like, for all but high end tablets using x86 architecture...

I was unaware of this until recently, but I guess one really crucial issue for this discussion is that Adobe will no longer be developing the flash player for mobile devices following the release of...

How many mobile device users you know who use their tablets or phones for anything but media, texts, phone calls and information-only applications? I do not see that anything based on the ARM...

I think there will be a tablet version of Windows 8 using ARM architecture and a PC version of Windows 8 using x86 architecture. Just like there is the iOS for apple mobile devices and OSX for their...

I don't think I agree. For a start, unlike previous verions of HTML, version 5 is meant to be completely backward compatible. This was not the case for earlier versions. I think this time they might...

HTML5 promises to be a good tool ...just not for the stuff that flash does very well.

@joel re: I totally agree. I do not think it will ever come close to being a 'replacement'.

I think HTML5 is important for a few reasons, but I do not think it makes SWF less important for...

HTML5 is important and will become more so, regardless of whether the iOS on i-devices will or won't support SWF.

Another good thing (apart from simplification of DOCTYPE) is that the <embed> tag...
