KM & MySql

[Chris_Seahorn]

It takes them a while to get my stuff approved due to the database and backends. I'm setting up downloads at my site if you need it now and I'll also post it to FK. Anything to help get the KM name out there.

Most people head to the Exchange when they are thinking of purchasing so it's worth being in all three (and any more I can find).

I added that one quick and turned on the downloads. It's gonna take forever to get my files mirrored but at least that one is in there right now while the Exchange goes through the process.

OK, it's available at my site if needed. It uses a different backend routine for the retrieval dniezby so you might want this one. The downloads are hidden until registered for those who don't see on first visit (reg is easy).

Flashkit has the submission along with the Exchange but it takes them a bit to approve. Hit myforum if you have problems, same with any of my code or upcoming stuff.

Chris, you're awesome. Thanks for the help.

It may look like something simple, but it definitely took some time to work out.

I just got myBLOGG confirmed as a submission at Flashkit and the download totals for all my movies are at 7167 with the MySQL stuff being the most popular as I suspected it would.

myBLOGG will most likely be the most heavily downloaded one I have there over the long run for Koolmoves since it has admin but if even a small percentage of the users who comprise those download numbers right now tried out the Koolmoves demo to play with that stuff, I'll consider it all worth it.

Impressive count Chris... The Blogg is great work and appreciated.

[Chris_Seahorn]

I put Planet through a lot to get this one listed. This is the only one I had need to install a policy file for and I'm hoping people seeing it run in the live demo will have them heading off to Koolmoves main for a demo copy of the app. That's the hope anyway

Not sure how any of this has been toward the platform but I'll keep plugging

[Chris_Seahorn]

I quick grabbed the 5.7.2 update so I can ride a while because I have an evil plan ready to go into action.

Two years ago, opensourcecms.com wanted me to submit a Flash forum for listing there. The problem at the time was I cannot force any user to buy any platform. I can ENTICE them to buy something but cannot FORCE it since they promote opensource. The forum would have forced the end user to buy Swishmax so I just left the thought for dead.

myBLOGG on the other hand fits this required mold perfectly. I've made a special copy for opensourcecms.com that allows the end user to dynamically load the title graphic as well as the preloader graphic so they theoretically don't have to own Koolmoves to use this blog system. I know they have a HUGE userbase and the odds are someone will want to buy it just so they can alter the general look and with Koolmoves being so inexpensive it's an even better fit than Swish or Flash since the software itself will not break a pocketbook to buy. Will they have to? Nope Will some want to? Oh yeah.

In the KME and Flashkit submission I force the user to try Koolmoves by using a title graphic they WONT want to keep "Your Sitename Here" as well as the preloader image. To remove it they will have to use Koolmoves since it's hardcoded. This movie is so complicated they can't end run it by saying "well, I'll just scarf the backends and leave the KM frontend for dead". Won't fly...it's too complicated and they would have to edit it just to look at what matches what on the backend. I even pulled the SWF into other flash platforms to see how much coding gets skewed and I know the novice user is screwed as far as getting around using Koolmoves since the only way to see the scripting pristine is with KM. With these file repositories I do that and freely admit it and that is why. )

Opensourcecms is massive and I will instead let curiosity kill my cat. It will be the only flash object they carry , will generate interest just because of that and will have the word Koolmoves everywhere on it. I couldn't pay for that kind of exposure to a huge existing userbase if I wanted to. It's my big bang on the way out.

For free they get the bland white look...for an extra $50 bucks they get to make the blog anything and personalize it. Perfect fit I say.

That my friends...is evil personified

Nice work chris

[dniezby]

LOL that is just hilarious man...Good idea. You sneaky bastard.

[Chris_Seahorn]

OK...crossing my fingers...I just contacted the site admin...it may take a while because people get in line to get listed there but since this is the only SWF based item it may get attention. I just hope Scott (the head honcho) remembers me to speed it up. I even used my modship here at FK as leverage for attention (and I never do that....really I don't )

Anything that shows this system can hold it's own with Flash proper helps and I've already kept the promise to mention Koolmoves numerous times in the email and the setup file itself (and all CCL licenses mention KM 5.7.2) describes the added options for this one if they are actual KM users and will have users WANTING to try KM....I hope.
