One of the reasons I liked Flash was because I could easily create 3-D interfaces. I was initially going to use it when creating the main interface for my slider puzzle program, however, it suddenly came to me that I could probably use Javascript instead.

The code for that wasn’t too hard to create (it’s still a little buggy and I’m not done with it yet though), I kind of wonder why there aren’t more 3-D Javascript interfaces for websites. I would think it would be much more practical than Flash since the user wouldn’t need a plug in, and the script could react to the browser resizing.<\/p>\n I think this slider puzzle app will unfortunately be one of those programs that I enjoy writing more than people enjoy using. It’s hard to get excited about doing puzzles of famous art. After thinking a bit more a Sarah Michelle Gellar puzzle gallery would be pretty cool, but I wouldn’t want to risk the copyright issues. I wonder if the gallery sites have deals with the photographers or if people just post up the images ignoring the copyright (hoping to fly under the radar).<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" One of the reasons I liked Flash was because I could easily create 3-D interfaces.
