Sunday : design time in order to do a much needed upgrade of the WAC website.
Problem : need to distort some screenshots with a 3D effects for the home page.
Possible solutions : photo editor trick, expensive plugin…but wait. Can’t Papervision do the trick ? But I would need to access the file system…hum can’t Adobe Air do the trick ?
Result: One hour later => welcome the image3D utility (I seriously run out of creativity for the name, I know). Drop an image on it, distort it in 3D, and press capture to get a brand new distorted image on your desktop.

This code is one hour of work, so basically, it took me more time to do some research than to code it. The good thing is it’s so simple that it can be VERY easily extended. Anyway let me know if you have any trouble with it.
Playtime is over. Back to Paperboy bime now.
