CmdBash Posted July 30, 2007 Share Posted July 30, 2007 So yeah, sometime back when I was just a little newbie I had this program idea, A Radical Edwardesk web browser, that when you surfed the web an assortment of random odd fish and future banner ads would float by as you surfed, but I figured that a bit to much so I was just thinking about a program that would watch your PC internet usage and depending on the traffic used, again an assortment of fish and future random banners would float by or your flowing throw it like a sea, and when the traffic stops, you'd stop on a particular sprite and stay there as if thats some server or website your connected to. Would anyone like to help me or even support me in this project, its quite an undertaking for me since im still just a student in college majoring in Computer Science ^_^. Words of wisdom, code snippets, artisits, direction all are welcome, this is planned to be open source exclusive to be devolved in the Hak5 Forums.

digip Posted July 31, 2007 Share Posted July 31, 2007 Would be interesting to see it in Flash. This way any OS could use it and see it in action. Not sure if that is even possible to access network servers and file shares through a flash interface, but would be cool because you can get all the moving objects and zoom in and out of them, etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

natural_orange Posted August 8, 2007 Share Posted August 8, 2007 sound like your planning to "hack the gibson" I would recommend that you look into whether or not anyone would actually want to use a program like this.... Mabey make a flash mock-up of what it would look like. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
