This morning right as I started working I noticed an interesting post on Digg… Manipulate images on the web?

Now, of course images can be manipulated on the web this wasn’t the question; however, the way it was written made me check it out.

*Click* - FotoFlexer - *thinks: This seems like a whole lot of nothing*

FotoFlexer: FotoFlexer is the most powerful online digital photo editor in existence. (from the website)

Come to find out they use their own image manipulation system (meaning Adobes) to rotate, stretch, and attach basic filters. After a quick play with it I have to say it is not HOT, it only allows for basic manipulation and mediocre text tools. What’s even worse is that you have to be registered with them to use it. If it is truly free then just let it be free :)

The system looks to be developed using Flex, that right there turns me off.

FotoFlexer: Not the coolest image manipulation system on the internet. 

Anyways - check it out and let me know what you think about it: http://fotoflexer.com

As for me… Back to photoshop :)

While testing our new administrative panel for the company I work for I stumbled upon an interesting “validation”… error?

Now… if you want to use an alert to question a users action within the system - be sure to give them at least two options :)

Hey all - Just wanted to note that I am back on the blogging circuit… I am sad to report that (if not already evident) I have not spent a lot of time on my blog as of late, reason being I have been horribly swamped with the new launch of HedgeCo.net and with the recent stroke of my mother. Which required me to take a small vacation and fly home to see her.

All is efficient now though, HedgeCo.net is coming a long and my mother is in stride as well :)

Expect to see many posts coming your way!!

Happy programming!
