Description:


Need a small simple standalone (I'll be embedding on an existing site) flash application that will work with an existing SWF file and accept user input of various smile variables (example: "smile", "six", "mad"). User will click generate button and variables will be sent to existing swf via URL and return a composite image.

This needs to be presented in a simple but graphically nice user interface.

That's it.

Functions:


- user gets 1 input box where he will enter smiley variables


- user gets generate button that when clicked generates a composite flash image


- url that generates image needs to be hidden/obfuscated so that no one can see it


- include watermark of site to keep others from hotlinking to application without giving us credit. this should be encrypted if possible to prevent someone from simply decompiling the swf and removing it.

Some information on how this works and what is available to us:

We have been given the URL of the swf that generates the smiles and that is all we have access to. We do not have access to original FLA's. End users ALREADY know what variables are available to them.

Smiley variables are stackable in that a user can use more than one to keep stacking effects on top of others to generate a more complex composite image.

Examples:

If user entered "smile" in the input box and hit generate, it would send a request to domain.com/example.swf with the variable "smile" like this:


http://www.domain.com/example.swf?url= (smile) which would generate a simple smile.

If user entered "smile" and "six" in the input box and hit generate, it would send a request to domain.com/example.swf with the variable "smile" and "six" like this:


http://www.domain.com/example.swf?url= (smile#six) which would generate a simple smile plus a devil character.

Note: Each smiley code/variable must be separated by a # - presumably by the user in the input box.

Same idea as above but with "mad" variable in place of the "smile" variable:

Note: Each of these examples can be tested here:

Extra features that I would like to have but do not know if it is possible (please specify if it is and if your quote includes these Remember we do not have access to the FLA's):


- ability to have image on transparent background (Like this: http://i.imagehost.org/0870/Picture_34.png )


- ability to export as png to desktop

We would need original FLA's when complete.

That's it...

This is phase one of this project. Phase two (not to be quoted here) would involve bettering the interface to also allow the user to visibly select from a list of existing variables, hex color codes, and several if then statements.

Graphic design is IMPORTANT to us, so please only bid if you have above average design skills. Please submit examples of related work.
