Color Picker App v2 update
patrick — Thu, 2009-07-16 03:07
I haven't forgotten v2 of the Color Picker App & it's something I've been wanting to work on. Unfortunately I have other projects that pay the bills taking priority. I wanted to share a couple of ideas I've been toying with and get some feedback.
I'm planning to completely drop reliance on the X Library. I had toyed with the idea of doing some sort of flash based thing, but I'm thinking of using jQuery, YUI, or both instead.

Quick details:
- Offer ends on Friday 13th February (2009).
- 100% of the proceeds from this sale will be donated to victims of the recent Australian bushfires.
- Choose any 5 books (in PDF format) and pay $29.95 USD.
A friend of mine just sent me an email today with the subject line of SitePoint 5 for 1 Bushfire Relief Sale
and all the body contained was the link http://5for1.aws.sitepoint.com/. Copy/pasting the link into firefox dropped me at a page showing a fireman giving a koala a drink of water - how cute. Scrolling farther down the page past the form for selecting the PDFs you want I found the Why is SitePoint doing this?
section and I'm stunned! Wow! Over 170 dead, 5000 now homeless... I hope my friends in Australia are all ok.
Color Picker App Overhaul

I've decided to do a complete overhaul on my Color Picker App as I'm wanting more functionality out of it. There are a number of things I definitely have planned for it, but I'm wanting to get some ideas from other people... Because like the original, I'm probably forgetting a couple things that might make it more user friendly.
