Iconator
Kategoria AS3, Flash & Flex | Leave a comment
Iconator is a small Flash app to generate favicons (16×16). You can either create one from the scratch or upload an image and modify it as needed. When you are done hit the “export” button to save your master piece on your local harddrive.
If you decide to use an existing image and upload it to Iconator you should remember one thing. Uploded pictures will be automatically streched to 16×16 size. So if you upload an image make sure its height and width are equal. Otherwise the image will be distorted.
If you are happy with the results and want to add the favicon to your web site you can use following markup:
<link rel="shortcut icon" href="/favicon.ico" />
Well… to cut the long story short… give it a try.

I downloaded the Googles new web browser, Chrome, today and I have to say it is freaking awesome. Here’s what Google Chrome download page says:
One box for everything
Type in the address bar and get suggestions for both search and web pages.
Â
Thumbnails of your top sites
Access your favorite pages instantly with lightning speed from any new tab.
Shortcuts for your apps
Get desktop shortcuts to launch your favorite web applications.
Nice features. And it seems to render sites really quickly. Even sites with complex CSS and HTML structure. If only I could get those nice Firefox extensions in it.

Rob-O-Tron live
Kategoria Flash & Flex, Flash 3D | 2 comments
We’ve been working hard the past few weeks at Talvi Digital and finally gave birth to our new improved website. Go Talvi . On the whole it took a lot of working hours to get the site live but it was absolutely worth it. Antti Rautiola was our lead 3D animator and modeller on this project and he really did an awesome job. Great thanks also to Teemu Kutvonen and Mirko Grönroos (and obviously the rest of the team) for assistance.
I was responsible for the site design and putting it all together (Flash site). We’ve been going back and forth with this project but finally found a path to follow and we all are very pleased with the results. We built the show-reel section around this fictive future city called “Rob-O-Tron” and all video material is streamd with Flash Media Server.
Rob-O-Tron The Making of:
Antti Rautiola: “Here is the making of Rob-O-Tron, our new website. Crowd system is made with our in-house crowd plug in (manual-massive). Most of the animation, however, is handmade key-frame stuff.”
