I am working on a little project, to test prospective freelancers.
We have several test files which they will retouch, a timer to show them how long they have, and a method to measure when they begin their upload.
the one thing that is problematic is a solid method to start the timer.
I dont want to penalize someone with a slow download speed.
I was thinking that we could make an SWF for each test, which the loads each image. When it has loaded, the instructions display and the User could then save the file to their local drive to open it into photoshop.
I would really love some help in figuring out if this tentative idea (SWF to save image to local drive after complte download) would even work,
and then some help in how to do that.
Thanks !
