They say that time files when you're having fun, so I must have had a blast during February. Somebody please let me know.
Actually, it has been fun. I've spent the better part of the month creating the foundation for some exciting features with metaPost (A module IT Crossing has created for use with DotNetNuke, an open source enterprise class CMS I've used with clients now for a couple of years.). Yes, I laid down all of my books on leadership and hunkered down in my little cave (it's actually a nice office with a great view!) to work on increasing the fun and the ease of use one more notch for metaPost.
Here's a sample of my favorite new feature which synthesizes a small JavaScript library with metaPost to automatically add stunning visual effects to your images. I just dragged and dropped these images from my digital camera into the page. Well, OK, I did set the alt attribute to a nice short description of the image. Go ahead! Try it out! Click on the first image and use your arrow keys to move around. Then try to open more than one at a time! Very fun, and this is all handled automatically by metaPost Professional Edition.
Well, it's late here in the US, so I'll have to sign off for now. For those of you who have used metaPost, notice that there is no footer in this post! I can customize my footer with metaPost Professional Edition! Don't worry, it will be released soon.
