I’ve whipped up a quick little web app called DisCalc. Visit it here: http://juliankussman.com/discalc/
Enter an item’s cost, click the discount button (common percentages plus enter your own custom). Click ‘Add to list’ to add it to your running shopping total.
You can save this to your iPhone’s home screen to use it without Safari chrome. I’ve also implemented HTML5 localStorage to allow saving your running total between launches/restarts.
Have fun 
Here’s a little something I whipped up based on a photo I took at the Obama rally on Oct. 18th, 2008
This class will allow you to create a pixellated copy of any display object.
It allows for varying pixel sizes and caching of rendered pixels so you don’t have to redraw them every time.
Usage is as follows:
var myMoz:Mosaic = new Mosaic(yourDisplayObj:DisplayObject, pixelSize:uint, useCache:Boolean);
addChild(myMoz);
or
var myMoz:Mosaic = new Mosaic(yourDisplayObj);
myMoz.pixelSize = 10;
myMoz.render();
Give it a try and let me know what you think.
I’m disgusted by myfoxstl.com
It isn’t their fault though. Here is 30 minutes of thinking applied to a site that seems to have had 10 minutes of thinking behind it.
I’ve put my freelance lifestyle on hold for a while since I’ve had a full time job but I am now looking for freelance projects I can do in the off hours (6pm – 8am and weekends)
If you’re looking for a Flash developer, UI designer or general web genius™ please feel free to contact me at julian(at this domain).
I’m located in St. Louis, MO if that makes any difference but I’m available worldwide. that may actually be a benefit to a company located in the UK since the time difference would allow me to be at available during their daytime office hours.
