Similar to my previous Candy Cosmos post, this ActionScript Flash experiment/art/eye-gouge isn’t interactive but it’s pretty fun to watch.
Update: You can see a gallery of images created with Flash ActionScript code similar to that used in the above example. Be sure to check out the Tantalizing Tendril Image Gallery.
As a continuation of a previous post “How to Limit a Number Between Two Values” I thought I’d make my “limiting” code a little more versatile.
The previous post used the following code to ‘limit’ or ‘constrain’ a number between a low and high value:
But what if you don’t want to, or can’t, control the order of the “lo” and “hi” arguments? …

Pure red, green, blue, cyan, magenta and yellow colors appear frequently, while pure black and white colors occur occasionally, and colors near 50% gray tend to be the least common. The bright candy colors are a side effect caused by …

A while ago, I wrote a Color Fading tutorial for ActionScript.org which provided nearly all the functions you’d ever want for fading colors. Did you notice that I said “nearly”? Well, today I’ve added yet another weapon to my color-fading code arsenal called “fadeHex”. The name probably won’t put fear in the hearts of fellow code warriors but it’s a powerful tool none the less. In essence, it lets you specify two colors, then creates a color gradient from the first color to the second and lets you choose a color at any point on that gradient. …
