Sine Language
Not sure exactly how useful this effect may be, but here’s a little something I was playing around with and thought I’d share.

Preloading my Life
This has got to be the longest preloader ever – the amount of time I have left until I’m out of the Navy: [kml_flashembed movie=”/wp-content/uploads/2008/01/lifeloader.swf” height=”100″ width=”250″ fversion=”9″ /] Which reminds me – here’s a handy AS3 class to create a countdown from now until som
