Mele Kalikimaka
Merry Christmas to you and your family.
Some Behind the Scenes:
- Song: Mele Kalikimaka sung by Bing Crosby and The Andrew Sisters
- It took about 15 hours to get it to "that point"
- Even though the original mp3 was 3.6 MB the total SWF file is ONLY 0.5MB (I love Flash!)
- Except for the fishes and the fireworks all the things you see on the card physically exist. So it is a real "screenshot" of my so called desktop :P
- It's _supposed_ to be in synch... I could tweak it but... I'm a bit tired :P
- The fireworks are driven by an algorithm and not an animation
- hehe I'm open to suggestions for the next E-card... maybe I might even be ambitious enough to try and make it so that people can "personalize" it.
