Hi list,
I want to make a shockwave movie that allows the user to draw a picture (a
bitmap) and then save that picture to the web server as a GIF image. A
separate gallery page will then display all the drawings.
There are a couple of bitmap export Xtras around, but they are all aimed at
use with projectors and can only save images to the client, not the server.
So the only solution I can think of is to read the bitmap pixel by pixel
(using getPixel) and post the data back to an ASP script on the server
(using postNetText). Then I can use server side scripting to generate the
GIF file on the server. The problem with this solution is that reading the
image pixel by pixel and posting the data to the server is slow.
Has anyone done this kind of thing before? Or can anyone see a better way to
do it, or problems with my solution?
Any help anyone could give would be greatly appreciated.
thanks,
Nick
