digg

Cunning ploy.

"Can you see the hidden image?"

duh. digg logo.

Haha this would be cool with more complicated pictures...

Ooh, it also displays the most recent comment from the article's digg page!

Digg... Good idea just to easy to see.

this is cool. but the image sucked.

its an ant farm duh

Every time this story is buried, a portion of a hidden image of Megan Fox is revealed!

for the actionscript people:

// Action script...

// [Action in Frame 1]
function addBall()
{
trace (count);
++count;
var _loc2 = _root.attachMovie("man", "id" + count, count);
_loc2._xscale = 90;
_loc2._yscale = _loc2._xscale;
_loc2._x = 10;
_loc2.gotoAndPlay(int(Math.random() * _loc2._totalframes));
_loc2.ball.gotoAndPlay(int(Math.random() * _loc2.ball._totalframes));
} // End of the function
function onEnterFrame()
{
} // End of the function
function update()
{
xml.load("http://services.digg.com/story/2028673/diggs?appkey=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.u.arizona.edu%2F~garyc%2Fman");
xml2.load("http://services.digg.com/story/2028673/comments?appkey=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.u.arizona.edu%2F~garyc%2Fman");
} // End of the function
var count = 0;
var mouseListener = new Object();
mouseListener.onMouseDown = function ()
{
};
Mouse.addListener(mouseListener);
var xml = new XML();
xml.ignoreWhite = true;
var xml2 = new XML();
xml2.ignoreWhite = true;
var diggs = 0;
xml.onLoad = function (suc)
{
trace (xml.childNodes[0].attributes.total);
diggs = xml.childNodes[0].attributes.total;
while (count < diggs && count < 500)
{
addBall();
} // end while
digg_txt.text = diggs + " diggs";
};
xml2.onLoad = function (suc)
{
var _loc1 = xml2.childNodes[0].firstChild.attributes.user;
var _loc2 = xml2.childNodes[0].firstChild.firstChild.nodeValue;
comment_txt.text = _loc1 + ": " + _loc2;
if (_loc1 == undefined)
{
comment_txt.text = "0 comments";
} // end if
};
update();
setInterval(update, 10000);

Sing with me now, digg to dig the digg image until its dugg offline.

digg? i was so hoping for something naked.

i like this

"The connection has timed out"

Is it a picture of the digg effect?

If you can read this comment on that site, it means that the site's no longer down.

This needs to get buried on principle. Otherwise more idiots will do ***** like this. Di your eally want the front page of Digg to be fileld with self serving crap like this?

No way. Digg is a place for kiddies to digg stories that they got in unsolicited e-mails saying "Check ot this funny picture!" Not for self serving stunts.

Okay, we can stop now.

i bet is gone spell out 404 in about an hour

I'd like to see THIS one get the 3000+ diggs that stories sometimes get. I wonder how long before it simply turns into a slightly-wiggly blue outline?

I'm only writing a comment in hopes that it makes it onto the page.

I wanna dip my balls in it!

I bet it took you longer to make that than it did for the 1st person to guess (correctly) what it is. ;-)

Actionscript is a beautiful thing

so if i understand that script correctly its going to add a ball for each digg up to 500?

and no its not stuck, it just has an update interval delay, probably to keep the thing from going nuts checking every 1/10 of a second and hogging bandwidth

I love how it generates digg commensts on the bottom

oh and this is by far the fastest digging thing i have ever saw , 400 in first 10 mis of front page

ooooh blue balls weeeeee!

is it a donut?

I bet the university isn't happy gary is using bandwidth for a stupid reason.

looks like the digg logo to me
