I’ve been making cool stuff in Flash, PHP and MySQL, like this:

It may not look like much, but it lets me very easily create a sketch blog. It uses one SWF, which checks a database to see whether an entry exists or not (it gets the entry name from the FlashVars variable — see the source code of this HTML page). If the entry doesn’t exist, it treats the file like a blank canvas. When I draw on the canvas, I can then hit enter and send the drawing I did to the database, where it creates the new entry. If the name does exist in the database, then it just loads the drawing.

Pretty slick, huh?

If you don’t think so, then just appreciate the pretty pictures. :)
