Minor Project

2003-08-05 John Winkelman

Today I began a re-build of the Flash Photo Album application, with an eye on using it as a CDROM presentation tool, among other things. So not much in the way of new and interesting stuff.

This is a sea otter we woke up in Prince William Sound during a glacier cruise:

sea-otter

Sea otters have the densest fur of any animal. The average human head has 100,000 hair follicles. There are 300,000 hairs in a single square inch of sea otter pelt. Sea otters do not have blubber, but instead, when cleaning themselves, blow air into their fur, where it is trapped and acts as insulation.

Don't like "Show, don't tell?" Try: "Demonstrate, don't lecture." Characters use words & deeds. #writetip #characters #scenes
