Hello
I’m trying to see if this is even possible with Flash, I think it may work with either Flash + XML or PHP, but I have little experience in those two, I have an idea of what to do, just not a clear way of how to get there …
What I am trying to do is convert text in an input box (either typed on the fly or copy/pasted) and have that output into 1px by 1px HEX# values in a mosaic tile effect in a second dynamic box (or possibly even exported as a .gif or .jpg) … so basically, replacing each letter for a color one by one left to right.
I know that I need to give HEX# color values to both upper and lower case letters, as well as number, the space value, and punctuation … so about 70 different values. so would that be an array in php? or XML?
As far as exporting goes, I heard that something called GD lib can be used to create graphics through PHP… but not sure on how that can work with Flash possibly
Any ideas on this? or if it is even possible?
thanks
stefan
