new experiment: scribble.2!

[ahmed]

hi..

after about 169 have been submitted to the scribble (http://24.141.60.208/scribble.html) thing i've made, i thought i would make a new one with fewer bugs and more options :)

scribble.2 (http://24.141.60.208/scribble2.html)

I tried to do as much testing as possible. Please let me know if you encouter any bugs :)



cheers!

[λ]

one word: awesome

no bugs that I could see. worked perfectly. i submitted one and then browsed them.

they load very quickly, i must thank you for that (and I'm on 56k at the moment)

[ahmed]

lol thanks :beam:

this time i kept a limit as to how much 'ink' you can use to prevent huge entries being submitted, makes it faster to download :)

[Jubba]

awesome ahmed. :)

[asphaltcowboy]

wow! so very cool! one bug: make the colour chart open in a blank window. if you click chart and press the back button you lose you're drawing! :)

[ahmed]

ooh.. i didn't know that.. i only tested it in the flash environment.. thanks, i'll fix that :)

[reverendflash]

is there any way to incorporate the chart as a color picker?

instead of having to look, then copy the hex?

just curious... very nicely done BTW

[ahmed]

hm.. it would actually mess things up for me, unless i use a UI component (i've seen one before).. i'll see if i can have it on my thing somehow :)

[replode]

some of the entries were funny, like homestar and some flags. pretty cool.:)

[asphaltcowboy]

also, an eraser would be magic! (or at least make it so that #FFFFFF/white doesn't reduce the ink level.. or something) I keep making mistakes!

an undo function? copy and paste? paint bucket? brushes? j/k ;)

*ahmed gets to work on ahmedshop, 'the greatest drawing package of all time'* :beam:

[ahmed]

Replode-
oh yeah.. goldi drew trogodor and homestar last night.. i did the flags :beam:

asphaltcowboy-
lol :beam:
ahmedshop eh.. i'll see about that..

I found a component that I used for autowraps, so let me know should you need it...

TOO COOL! GOOD JOB AHMED! I'M SO IMPRESSED!
testing something I saw thoriphes do that's probably copyrighted by him ;)

<marquee direction=down>SOO COOL AHMED</marqee>

[ahmed]

lol... the thing you did with you footer is pretty cool too! :P

[mdipi]

w00t thats crazy! btw guys hwy does your footer scroll?

[lostinbeta]

Incredible ahmed, I didn't even think you could improve upon your first one, but you did! :thumb:

[mdipi]

yeah i thought hte first one had everything! but i guess i was wrong!

[thoriphes]

oh god...what have i done. :P

:trout:

[ahmed]

lol :beam:

this still lacks things like.. an undo function, copy and paste, paint bucket, and brushes.. you know.. i should get working on that.. :P


p.s. dipi, it now loops :)

[lostinbeta]

Shape tools :P A line tool :P

But I think out of anything an undo function and/or an eraser tool would rock. There were times when I had to set the color to white and up the line size to color over things that I screwed up on, then I had to reset the color and line back to the color I wanted and line width I wanted to continue. That gets annoying when you screw up as much as I do ;) :P

[ahmed]

lol :P

i'll work on an undo function.. :)

[asphaltcowboy]

ahmedshop! :beam:

[NaliWarCow]

ahmed, you should make a tutorial for your saving stuff. Like your footer where it saves what the user does to it so it displays that the next time they load it. Or how it saves the picture in this thing. I'm sure it could be incredibly useful (unless it's already a tutorial, i haven't made it to the advanced ones yet).

edit: useful, not useless

[kirupa]

Hey ahmed,
This is another awesome flash thing you have done. You have to give us the inside scoop on how you created the save feature ;)

Cheers!
Kirupa (-:

[sintax321]

Very cool and very useful.:thumb:

[ahmed]

thanks :)

i'll see if i can come up with a tutorial of some kind about the 'effect' i used.. :)

[morse]

take the 0x out of the color selection.

[ahmed]

okay.. i added an undo function now =).. my first step towrads a complete ahmedsome ahmedshop software :P

press ctrl to undo the very last thing you draw :)

good point about the color selection.. it got some people confused

[Mik3]

Yeh, the save feature is amazing

[Maxtr0sity]

Wow ahmed, that is alsome man. I was having way too much fun with the first one, and now theres 2. I'm sure it'll be hours on fun for me.

=)

PS. (r)

[urbanscrawl]

This does rock.

You know - we should have a Battle to see who can do the best picture using Ahmed's scribble2...

*throws gauntlet clattering to the floor*

who's game?

[Maxtr0sity]

Scribble 2 Battle!!!

[[m]]

Hi ahmed, nice to see you again! ;)

[I am the Noah]

That is totally awesome Ahmed!!!! But i think i found a bug, when you click next or previous reall really quick the pictures seem to overlap each other, but i guess you dont need to fix this since not many ppl will browse through it quickly

[Maxtr0sity]

I had a problem with the colors though. When I put in, say: "#some 6 digit number", it either doesn't show up or it's just black. Am I colorblind or just retarded?

[ahmed]

lol.. im amazed, 59 entries at the first day :beam:

a scribble battle would be awesome!!

mista bliss-
i'll fix it :)

max-
it has to be in the format 0xFFFFFF :)

[Kajinku]

Very well done! Like this a lot!

my footer shud stay a fix rite?

[eki]

Hi,

Nice work!

You may be interested in looking at something quite similar we did wich is in :
http://www.channel4.com/smartstuff/
Launch 'the block' and go to the 5Th floor where you make your 'nano creation'. Browse the entries in the gallery in the same site.

And again, nice work!

[Maxtr0sity]

Ahmed: O ok, I was wondering about the whoe 0x deal, great job man.

[ahmed]

the nano creation is cool =)

I added a color picker i found on flashcomponents.net.. this should make it much easier now :)

[reverendflash]

way cool.

just noticed one thing... when I hit CTRL Z to undo my last step, the colors change... if I were drawing a blue sea, for instance, with a red boat, then hit undo, the boat sometimes became blue, sometimes the sea became red...

just a heads up..

lots of fun tho...

[Soul]

Mr Genious strikes again :beam: Awesome work!

Ahmed, may I request a change? ;) How about a little text box where you can enter the number of an entry and it goes straight to it? Instead of having to scroll through 70 odd entries? Would be cool :thumb:

- Soul :s:

[ahmed]

will do :beam:

[Soul]

:love:

Then people can say "Look at my picture number 135! (example)"

- Soul :s:

[ahmed]

done ;)

[lostinbeta]

Woah, been a while since I checked it out, awesome gradient color chooser! And I definitely like the jump to ability.

[ahmed]

lol thanks :love:

i used the simples color picker component i found on flashcompoenents.net :).. and many people suggested having the jump to function, so i added it :)

[Soul]

xxviii got picture 69 ;)

- Soul :s:

[ahmed]

lol :P

yeah.. im actually going to take it down soon to fix some major bugs i found.. i will script it and have it back up :)

[Soul]

After a hundred pictures it should be cleared, but you keep the pics and post them all somewhere :beam:

- Soul :s:

[Jubba]

I have a question ahmed... how did you incorporate that component into your movie. i have it downloaded and installed and everything, but I can figure out how to get my MCs to change colors :(

[kirupa]

Hey ahmed!
Really awesome. My entry is number 88, and for some reason I am only seeing a few of the bazillion colors I used. Was it done to decrease file size? If so, that's cool. If not, it may be a bug or something :)

Cheers!
Kirupa :blush:

jubba-
I installed the component through the extension manager. Drag and drop and components from the components pane, give an instance name of 'cp' and have this code on the timeline where it's placed:
cp.onRelease = function() {
trace(this.getRGB())
} =)

[lostinbeta]

And just in case you didn't know (im sure you did), pressing CTRL+Z turns the colors to brown.

[ahmed]

lol.. that too.. frickin color picker :P

[lostinbeta]

WOAH, I just submitted my image (#94) and all the colors except brown reverted to red.....lol.

My pretty snowboarder picture is all read now :P

haha

[Voetsjoeba]

Yeah I did the MediaPlayer thingy and it turned all yellow-orange-red :-\

[ahmed]

lol :P... when i get some free time i'll try to fix it :)

[lostinbeta]

Hahaha, when I am on image 95 and I hit previous to get to my image, all the colors except brown turn yellow.

But if I am on 93 and hit next to get to my image all the colors except brown turn red!!!

[ahmed]

lol.. brown is like the cursed color, just doesnt wanna show up :-\

[Jubba]

lol Thanks a lot ahmed. I apreciate it. I'll let you all know when my new experiment is done ;)

[ahmed]

lol.. *waiting to be impressed* :P
