WORKING CODE!!!!

We met with dekker on tuesday after class and he got our blur filter to work, which we were very happy with. This left us with two ways of implementing our idea, work with the activity levels making the blur whci we got working on tuesday after dekker left but is unreliable and breaks easily when interacting with it. or try and get the activity lines to work.

On wednesday i met with nathan Hoad and through colaborating with him successfully implemented the Lines idea (which we had almost working for 3weeks except for the blur part) we also added volume control. So as it stands the picture frame image is blured with no sound, and as a person walks close and hits a new activity line the blue decreases and the volume increase to reveal the hide image and audio. then as you was away it returns to its previous state.

When i got home though the swf audio no longer worked, but when i ran the swf from inside the fla the audio worked which is a bit concerning. I am heading to class today to try it on the macs, because it was created on XP and my home PC is Vista, So im hoping its just vista being crap and works on xp and macs

Internet is also playing up at home so i will email everyone a copy when i get to class, Tim had been unable to fully work with the code from home because he hasnt got a webcam, so i've borrowed an old one from my house mate and am meeting him today to give it too him. I tried to find drivers for him but was unsuccessful, which is stupid considering its a known brand 'Logitech' and i was able to find, download and install drivers to make my eyetoy work as a webcam in 2mins. That is life anyway i'll keep you posted since we only have 2 weeks to go.
