Wanna see a neat new trick with MX?

Anyone made some changes to the .fla that improves/changes the way it interacts?

Just curious what we can do with a little paint program.

well i personally always had the idea of having a hip hop e-graffiti wall on my site.... with changing backdrops.... unfortunately there's still no way of exporting the results in an email as a jpeg.... maybe some code to regenerate the results?

I have been wanting to make something like this in FLash 5, and now since MX delivers!!!! i will probly finish a drawing app in a month or so. Anyhow, the way to do this is to write an engine IN FLASH MX of course that will send the view as XML data to your serverside script that will make a JPG out of it.
yeah it sounds pretty complicated, i am on it !!!

if anyone is interested! Let me know! I will be using PHP, XML, MySQL

Older versions of php's image libraries support jpg output, but newer ones only gif (copyright conflicts I think)

No way man, what are you talking about PHP is the boss! it works with JPG, GIF, PNG AND TRUE TYPE FONTs!!!! Imagine that... so anything you create in Flash you can transform into JPG with PHP.

look: http://www.php.net/manual/en/ref.image.php

Yes Please! please send it to mit_q@hotmail.com

i bet i could code it in php

im the nuts at it

Once I find the VC tutorial I'll post a link to it for you. If anyone wants to write a .jpg encoding algorithm that would be peachy. It would probably be easier to write an encoder for a .bmp though since the file format specification is a lot simpler.

still, that could be just the answer.... and winzip it on the fly like the flashtyper does
