After a few beers we decided that we needed to create a new Easing equation. We figured that is if Quint was to the power of 5, then logically we create an equation to the power of 6.. but what to call it.. after a few more beers we figured if Quart is the power of 4 and Quint is the power of 5 then the power of 6 should be simply called “Sex”. Coincidentally, this is also the Latin word for six.

This gives us a new, slightly sharper Ease and the bonus ability to have some really cool easing combinations such as Sex.EaseIn, Sex.EaseOut and everyones favorite, Sex.EaseInOut.

Enjoy your new equation, if you use it on a project please drop us a link in the comments below and please remember, always practice safe Sex.

I managed to find a basic class that I modified to include an average FPS parameter and a threshold parameter that turns the FPS Background to RED if the FPS drops below the threshhold.

This site presented a few unique challenges. First of all it was to feature a pseudo-3D transition for the load screen but was asked not to use an propitiatory 3D software such as Papervision. The next challenge was to create a flowing navigational menu that is fed from a dynamic XML feed with random positioning of the nav items. The site also needed to feature a “Favorites” system that allowed user to add their favorites sites to a “bookmark” style menu on the site, however due to technical restraints I was not to use a database, this meant storing the “Favorites” in browser cookies and writing a quick interface to access the cookies. Finally the site was built on top of the Kohana PHP framework and an alternate HTML only version developed by the brilliant Luke Schreur. The site features 9 different “Skins”, refresh on the landing page to get a new random skin.

Here’s the fix:

ActionScript:

import flash.net.*;

...

mybutton.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, openPopup);

function openPopup(event:Event) {
	var jsPopFunc:String = "popupWin";
	var _winURL:String = "http://www.rivastakeout.com/staging/stake-your-claim/form.php";
	var _winTarget:String = "_self";
	var _winWidth:Integer = 600;
	var _winHeight:Integer = 400;
	var _winName:String = "popup";
	var _winParams:String = "location=0,status=0,scrollbars=1";;

	var result:Boolean;
	if (ExternalInterface.available) {
		result=Boolean(ExternalInterface.call(jsPopFunc , _winURL, _winTarget, _winWidth, _winHeight, _winName, _winParams));
	}
	if (!result) {
		var request:URLRequest=new URLRequest(_winURL);
		try {
			navigateToURL(request, _popupWin);
		} catch (e:Error) {
			trace("Error occurred!");
		}
	}
}

JavaScript:

  function popupWin(winURL, width, height, name, params){
	var left = Math.floor((screen.width - width)/2);
	var top = Math.floor((screen.height - height)/2);
	var winParms = "top=" + top + ",left=" + left + ",height=" + height + ",width=" + width;

	if(!name){
		name = "newWin";
	}
	if(!params){
		params = "location=0,status=0,scrollbars=0";
	}
	if (params){
		winParms += "," + params;
	}

	var newWin = window.open(winURL, name, winParms);
	if (newWin) {
		return true;
	}
	else{
		return false;
	}
  }

Here’s the fix, simple CSS rule on object element.

<style type="text/css" media="screen">
    object { outline:none; }
</style>

The tap banner was a bit of a trick as it’s always difficult to simulate flowing water nicely, especially when it needs to be interactive and dynamic. There were the usual file size restrictions to work within but I was quite pleased with the final banners.
