<p>Enter an item&#8217;s cost, click the discount button (common percentages plus enter your own custom). Click &#8216;Add to list&#8217; to add it to your running shopping total.</p>
<p>You can save this to your iPhone&#8217;s home screen to use it without Safari chrome. I&#8217;ve also implemented HTML5 localStorage to allow saving your running total between launches/restarts.</p>
<p>Have fun <img src='http://juliankussman.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif' alt=':)' class='wp-smiley' /> </p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>This class will allow you to create a pixellated copy of any display object.</p>
<p>It allows for varying pixel sizes and caching of rendered pixels so you don&#8217;t have to redraw them every time.</p>
<p><a href="http://juliankussman.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/10/mosaic.zip">mosaic</a></p>
<p>Usage is as follows:</p>
<p>var myMoz:Mosaic = new Mosaic(yourDisplayObj:DisplayObject, pixelSize:uint, useCache:Boolean);<br />
addChild(myMoz);</p>
<p>or</p>
<p>var myMoz:Mosaic = new Mosaic(yourDisplayObj);<br />
myMoz.pixelSize = 10;<br />
myMoz.render();</p>
<p>Give it a try and let me know what you think.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>I&#8217;ve put my freelance lifestyle on hold for a while since I&#8217;ve had a full time job but I am now looking for freelance projects I can do in the off hours (6pm &#8211; 8am and weekends)<br />
If you&#8217;re looking for a Flash developer, UI designer or general web genius™ please feel free to contact me at julian(at this domain).</p>
<p>I&#8217;m located in St. Louis, MO if that makes any difference but I&#8217;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.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>I&#8217;ve spent a day or two reformatting and tightening up the code I left lingering on the <a href="http://juliankussman.com/blog/2007/11/21/fless-v-000001-alpha/" target="_blank">Fless project</a> I started.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.juliankussman.com/blog/fless/" title="Here is the example" target="_blank"> Here is the example </a></p>
<p>It doesn&#8217;t look like much but it shows the ease of use of the framework.</p>
<p>Here is the code to create the basics:</p>
<p>public class Main extends MovieClip{</p>
<p>public function Main(){</p>
<p>var blog:Fless = new Fless();</p>
<p>blog.phpURL = &#8220;http://yourwebsite/getPost.php&#8221;;</p>
<p>blog.addEventListener(PostEvent.UPDATE, postsReady);<br />
blog.getPosts(0, 20);</p>
<p>}</p>
<p>private function postsReady(e:PostEvent):void{<br />
trace(&#8220;posts ready&#8221;);<br />
trace(e.posts);</p>
<p>var curPost:CurrentPostView = new CurrentPostView(e.posts[0]);<br />
curPost.x = 50;<br />
curPost.y = 50;<br />
curPost.width = (stage.stageWidth / 2) &#8211; 50;<br />
curPost.height = stage.stageHeight &#8211; 100;<br />
addChild(curPost);<br />
}</p>
<p>}</p>
<p>I&#8217;m definitely looking for input from Flash devs that use WordPress to see what kind of features they would like.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>I&#8217;m about a week and a half into blogging and I realized that WordPress has a great back-end but the front end is only as good as the template. As a Flash developer I can make front-ends all day that make users want to drool but the back-end is always the tricky part. I&#8217;ve started the preliminary coding/research into making a front-end for WP in Flash. But what I don&#8217;t have is the needs of the community in the back of my mind. Again, I&#8217;ve only been blogging for a week or so. Therefore if any heavy WP users have specific challenges they need met I&#8217;d love to hear about them. Or, if you&#8217;re a Flash dev and you know what kind of a class kit you&#8217;d enjoy working with to build your own blog&#8217;s front-end, leave a comment.</p>
