Topic awaiting preservation: Joining the ranks of hundereds of demo coders...

256 byte rotating tube demo with an XOR texture. Just like everyone else. Only in JS instead of ASM.

Nice

I guess that's the appropriate thread to do some buzz for my entries to the previous 256b.htm contests:

• 256b metaballs
• 256b rotozoom
• 256b MEGA scroll
• 256b vector "pirates"

Sorry, they are IE only; shame on me I only used Phoenix and Mozilla for beta testing at the time. And I had a more pragmatical approach of DHTML in that that I really used, and abused, the HTML elements instead of generating a "pixel buffer".

I whish there was another 256b.htm contest, but don't want to organise it as I would forbid myself to submit some entries

Yup, I remember all those.

The Communist-looking one was my favorite; I was surprised when I noticed that no 3D calculations were involved. It prompted an evening of reading about Lissajous functions. ;p

The poster has demanded we remove all his contributions, less he takes legal action.
We have done so.
Now Tyberius Prime expects him to start complaining that we removed his 'free speech' since this message will replace all of his posts, past and future.
Don't follow his example - seek real life help first.
