I've pretty much concluded that it's an afterbirth related to the
development of Thread and PathAnimation.
Most the methods that it over-rides are about as practical as pissing into
the wind on a winter day; at first glance it "feels" good but after a little
more quality time in the environment your ice coated gonads scream the
truth.
So,...
based on that I wrapped most the existing functionality in an empty
McDonalds cheeseburger wrapper an through it in the trash. I'm currently
working on a revised one that will offer a little more (cough) practical set
of image animation methods. Simple things like...
animMoveTo
animChainTo // forward or backwards
frameMarkers // ala Flash key frames
automatic image array maker
etc....
I'll be presenting this along with a revised image preloader that leverages
Richards technique to allow images to trigger onload events but with a
fraction of the overload and minimal typing to convert an image file into
onload image array. It also seems to work about 300% faster (it includes
variable speed control for you animation junkies who want to "present" a
preloader bar.
I'm pretty much revising my current site "front door" and it will showcase
lots of neat tricks.
