Long time ago, actually, 2 years ago I had the idea of developing an API for xplsv.tv, and it took like 1 year until I finally worked on it, I think it was something like 1 day of work and I did this:



It was my first experiment using the ZigoEngine so I didn't know very well what I was doing. This weekend I had a bit of spare time, and (more important) inspiration, so, with a little bit more of knowledge about the ZigoEngine and with some tricks that I learnt while doing phodoob v2 I did a simple mosaic, while improving the API a little bit.

 

Maybe this one didn't end up as cool as the first one, but I think its cool enough. Does anyone know a cool app for creating an screensaver for Windows/MacOSX using a .swf? :D

If you wanna play with the API a bit, you can do stuff like this:
http://xplsv.tv/api/?what=movies&sorting=rand
http://xplsv.tv/api/?what=movies&sorting=desc
http://xplsv.tv/api/?what=movies&sorting=asc
http://xplsv.tv/api/?what=movies&sorting=asc&amount=1
http://xplsv.tv/api/?what=movies&amount=50
http://xplsv.tv/api/?what=movies&amount=500
http://xplsv.tv/api/?what=movies&amount=10&offset=1

and then you have a lot of versions for each image:

http://xplsv.tv/images/movies/1133_150x50.jpg
http://xplsv.tv/images/movies/1133_200x100.jpg
http://xplsv.tv/images/movies/1133_280x210.jpg
http://xplsv.tv/images/movies/1133_428x50.jpg
http://xplsv.tv/images/movies/1133_560x200.jpg
http://xplsv.tv/images/movies/1133_560x50.jpg
http://xplsv.tv/images/movies/1133.jpg (try to don't use this one :P)

That's all by now, the API doesn't give artists/users info yet... but I guess its enough to have fun ;) If you do any experiment with all this, please, let me know! ;)
