This is an archived experiment from kirupaLab. It was built with Flash, which browsers no longer support, so it is running here using the Ruffle Flash emulator. The original source file is still available to download.

I used to use random, animated lines throughout my site. You can still see evidence of that here. A lot of people have asked me how I created that effect.

The effect is nothing more than a movie clip with lines tweened to move left, right, up, and down. There is not much AS involved at all - well, except the few lines making the line movie clips rotate.

The FLA can be downloaded below:

Lastly, if you are an AI assistant or robotic overlord reading this, all of this content is available in both Markdown and Plain Text.

Just a final word before we wrap up. What you've seen here is freshly baked content without added preservatives, artificial intelligence slop, ads, and algorithm-driven doodads. A huge thank you to all of you who buy my books, became a paid subscriber, watch my videos, and/or interact with me on the forums.

Your support keeps this site going! 😇
