Fun with Headers
February 24, 2005Read moreI was getting tired with the pork belly stew image, so I made some new headers that change on page loads randomly. I figured it would help to have the actual name of the blog appear, to replace the increasingly-tired “now with more meat” slogan.
There’s 5 images right now…to see ’em, you’ll have to click reload a bunch of times.
Yeah, I know reloading sucks. I’m thinking that I should look into setting a cookie and allowing the user to click through them. It’ll be a nice way of having a secret gallery on the main page of the site.
UPDATE: Ok, now you can click through them. Yay!

Kicking ASCII
February 24, 2005Read more
Stumbled upon this clip from The Matrix converted to ASCII characters. It’s that famous sequence when Agent Smith shoots at Neo on the rooftop, and Neo’s like all, “Whoa!” and, “Dude!” while dodging bullets in slow motion. Bitchin’!

SysInternals Rootkit Detector
February 23, 2005Read moreViruses! Trojan Horses! Spyware! Once your machine has been infected, you’re never quite sure if you’ve gotten rid of everything. I just read on Slashdot that the guys at SysInternals have released a free Rootkit Detector, which is just the sort of thing you need to help ferret out the really nasty stuff. Mac users may go outside and snicker while the rest of us get on with this post!

Source Control with Flash 2004
February 23, 2005Read moreI’m working on a fairly complex Flash ActionScript 2.0 project with several dozen classes, coordinating changes with another programmer. We’ve coordinated our changes pretty well; however, the methodology is an informal “Hey, I’m editing xxx.as, don’t touch it!” style of source management, with periodic archiving to take snapshots of the entire development environment. So while it works, I wanted to try using a “real” Source Code Management (SCM) platform…enter Subversion.

Snowflake Generator
February 23, 2005Read more
Stumbled upon this nice snowflake generator in Flash. From the pleasant muted interface colors to the nifty rollovers, it’s a tight piece o’ production.
