fun with kuler

[joshchernoff]

I would like to see what other people can do with this code.
I'm not a good code writer and I'm kinda at the end of my abilities until I learn some more.

any how feel free to play with this kuler app I made.
all drawing is from the api so paste in to a blank file. no library needed

Bzzt. Security Sandbox error. Flash is unhappy.

[joshchernoff]

looks like they changed that API probably do to the fact that I was not supposed to know about it.

[joshchernoff]

funny one moment it works then next it don't? I have no idea whats up

[efnx]

It worked for me, at least I think it did. It spits out a series of colors, correct?

I did get some errors in a pop-up though.

[Templarian]

works pretty good. I don't have Flash 9 so I didn't get to see the errors but nice work.

[nathan99]

OMG dat iz da koolest thin dat iv eva seen. See I can talk stupid too.

[ajcates]

@n99

where did that come from?
