Well, January 07 is almost done and this is my first post of the new year.
I'm now running the Flash Team over at Endemol Uk. The nice people who brought you Big Brother and Deal or No Deal. I'm very busy looking after things there, but I hope in the coming months of 2007 I'll have a good few things to talk about and report on.
One of the area's I'm particularly focusing on these days is production work flow, from project planning all the way to code standards and development methodologies. So no doubt I'll be writing about that a fair bit.
Also I'm really hoping to get some work done on Badgr, the little Flickr gizmo that could. This is going to be FlashPlayer9 and AS3.0 based which is going to be fun.
I hope everyone out there is having a great start to the new year.

A few people may be wondering why there’s been little development on the Badgr project recently, I’ve been very busy preparing for my wedding and working hard over at Endemol Uk for the last few weeks.
On monday 9th October, I am going to be married to my wonderful fiance, on Long Beach California, I’m more excited than I can say.
Normal service will resume at some point, but for the moment, I’m busy enjoying myself.

After a slight panic during the week, all the Flickr tools hosted here on mentalaxis are now working fine again...
I'd managed to neglect checking the latest news about the Flickr API and missed the notice informing the developer community about an upcoming change of server for Flickr API calls.
I realise that many of you would have been a bit confused (angry?) when your badgr installs stopped working, and I'm very sorry I wasn't prepared for the update, if you're using a downloaded .SWF of badgr or badgr2.0 you can download the updated one from the link below.
Thanks again to everyone who's using badgr.
By the way, if you missed my recent announcement, badgr2.0 is now configured to work with FlashPlayer 8 and up, this is in preparation for the new image size updates which are being developed at the moment, there's a tech demo here.

Badgr2.0 and Polkr are now working again.
idFindr
idFindr and the integrated idFindr in Constructr are still not working but a fix is in the pipeline and should be online again soon.

This is a brief post for anyone who’s wondering why Badgr, idFindr, Polkr and Constructr aren’t working
For some reason all of the mentalaxis flickr applications are being refused connection to Flickr servers.
I am working hard in an attempt to find out the details of this problem and get it fixed as soon as possible, I have recieved no word from Flickr or any other notification, so I’m still trying to find out why this has happend.
I would hope that the problems are all solved in the next 48 hours.
More details as I get them, and please accept my apologies.
