Whew!
So my real job turned out to be a lot less work than programming on Knowtes for the Derby. I need to work on my self-motivation (less would be better I think).
In any case, the bug-ridden AIR version of Knowtes is off, and I can only hope that there are too many features in there for the judges to get too in-depth and find all of the errors 
I waited pretty much until the last second to submit it, just in case Adobe had some automated process to download your AIR file as soon as you sent in your submission, though it appears they did not. Now it’s time to sit around and wait for the judges to start doing their thing.
Well, not exactly just sit around. I’ve got plenty of projects to be working on and I’d like to start blogging about different parts of the AIR development experience as well as code I used. So to that end, here’s a list of things I might blog about:
- The Knowtes GradientSelector control
- The BitmapFade effect (gets around non-embedded font issues and is faster than typical fade)
- Secure login via HTML
- Kuler integration
- Tile-able, center-able, stretch-able, zoom-able background image
Just post a comment and let me know what you’d like to hear about and I’ll make a blog post about it.
Till then,
~Shaun (more…)
