Mac vs PC Minisite

Heres a project I had to do for my Multimedia Design Class. We needed to pick a subject that is up for debate. I decided to do Mac vs PC, seemed to be more fun than smoking or something like that.

I went for a fun UI approach and make it like a desktop. Click on the icons and a window pops up that you can drag around, minimize, etc. It was a pretty fun project. Best of all I got an A!!!!!!.

I also posted the code for anyone who was curious.

Stable Release XMLLoader 2.0

**Update**
http://blog.kreativeking.com/2008/10/xmlloader-20-updatexmlloader-20-update/

I have been working hard on making this as robust and stable as possible. This release should be able to do anything you would like with loading XML. Couple of new features from 1.8 the community has been emailing me about as well as some that I wanted to include in past versions. I will be releasing a video tutorial on how to use this class properly. I’ll explain the new features to hold you over until then.

XMLLoader 2.0 « Cleck Here

**UPDATE**
Build 1.8 had some back end updates.

• Complete Event doesn’t dispatch early
• XML Root is now passed instead of just the children

Syntax is still the same

As many of you may already know, I built an XMLLoader class couple months ago. I have steadily been adding more features and making it more robust and easier to use. In this release v.1.6, 2 new features are introduced. You can now choose which list to get by the name of the xml file and now there is a new function to load xml outside of the constructor.

Simple Drawing App….Using Drawing API

Started school this week and so far, looks to be a fun semester. I have Multimedia Programming ( Actionscript 3 Class). Today we just went over basics and definitions like classes and properties, etc. While that was going on I tried to make a quick drawing app so I can paint a little bit. Its all using the drawing API which I learned mostly from Keith Peters book. Here is what I got in the hour.

Papervision Practice - Transition Effect in 3D…

I’ve been messing around with the new Papervision the past couple days. It seems to still have a couple of bugs but overall is pretty good so far. There is also some extensive documentation now. I posted a couple of days ago a cool transition effect. I thought it would be good practice to port this over to 3D. It was fairly easy, had some hang ups with the materials, but after reading through them and looking up some tutorials, it was a piece of cake. Only problem i am having now is that I can’t seem to make it interactive. I followed what you are supposed to do but it’s not working for me. So to see the effect over again, You have to refresh.
