Of course, it's probably only 100-200 lines of actionscript, and hell, I know a limited amount of AS, but not enough to really get by when it comes to image manipulation. I guess I'd rather hear thoughts on whether I was just completely drunk last night, or if this seriously has some potential for design. Flash image wrapper that will allow images to be resized arbitrarily to any dimensions should make web design much easier, and would allow for design to be done regardless of screen/browser size, dimensions, whatever. So a site will look different on 640x480 than it does on my 22" widescreen, instead of designing for 640x480 and it being just a tiny vertical stripe of content in an otherwise empty wasted space. Thats how I envision the techonology being used. Anyway, the point isn’t supposed to be me mooching for software development. $200 is pretty much nothing at all.

Yes it has been 'done in flash' but its not useful or serve any real functional purpose. just a simple tech demo. It's not tied to screen sizing, and it doesn't grow. Points I made sure to bold in my post ;) I saw the flash demo awhile ago, but couldn't find the link when I wrote the article. That guy is 80% there, but it just really doesn't show off the use (or the use I see for it) of the algorithm. And he doesn't give out his code. He's got 2 out of the 5 bullets going for him Ryan.
