Protecting an image with the use of Flash

It's been a while since I wrote my last Flash / Actionscript tutorial. But lately, I got several requests on different Flash tutorials so I decided to start up the program once again.

Many websites don't want their images to be copied. You can add a (hidden) watermark, slamming your logo several times on the image or let it carry a secret file, but I wanted a totally different approach. I wanted to protect my images using Flash and more important: It should be done dynamically.

Image protection using Flash

Before I'm going to start with this tutorial, I recommend you to check out my demo on what we'll be creating. I'm telling you: Those images are loaded dynamically using external JPG files. Can you find the real images?

You can download the source and demo code if you don't feel like following this tutorial. You'll only need to change the XML file and you're done.

I got RickRolled on Queensday IRL

Just a short, personal, non-techie post from the person behind this blog / website. I just got a new (parttime) job as a PHP programmer at WIWI Websolutions. The CakePHP framework they're using is pretty cool and I'm learning it now.

Yesterday, it was Queensday in the Netherlands. It's a national holiday, celebrating the birthday of the Queen. This simply means: A free day with loads of partying.

In the morning, there was a flea market down town which I visited. When I was going through some old vinyls, checking for some "good old songs", I stumbled upon the following record.

Rickrolled

I laughed, thinking that I got RickRolled in real life. I know it's pretty geeky, but seriously: When you listen to Rick Asteley's Never Gonna Give You Up, it'll be stuck for the rest of the day in your head. As you can see, this isn't the vinyl of Never Gonna Give You Up, but from Whenever You Need Somebody. I spended the next hour searching for the correct record, but sadly I couldn't find it.

Here are a couple of more pictures from Queensday in Arnhem that I made with my iPhone.

Glowing and sparkling intense light 3d logo

After my previous tutorial on how to create a frog logo in Photoshop, I'm now going to teach you how to create a glowing and sparkling intense light 3D glow logo. This tutorial shows different techniques that I learned in the past couple of weeks and it'll surely blow others away.

Intense Light 3D Logo

Most of this tutorial is done in Photoshop, the 3D letters are created in Illustrator. If you don't have Illustrator, you can also try making 3D letters in Photoshop.

I'm creating the word "QPoit", which actually is a fun word (and non-existing) used between my friends and me (Don't ask me why). Get ready to make some amazing artwork.

Flying Vector Stars: Free high res Photoshop brushes

As you could have guessed, I'm a programmer. But sometimes, I really like to get creative & design things using Photoshop.

For all those Photoshop lovers out there, I created a free high resolution brush pack for Photoshop. It contains 12 super-size brushes, showing flying vector stars.

Flying Vector Stars

The Photoshop CS2+ version has a resolution of almost 2500 px, the CS1 and lower version are just under 1000 px. Both use the same settings as Bittbox.

You can use these stars in your striking Photoshop artwork.
