Structure Synth experiments II

I've had some time to play with Structure Synth and after some experimenting I came up with the results below. The black and white renders are all different, random variations of the same code, I named it "Quantom stories" and I'll release it, but it needs some work, to produce more various results.

Customizing the SoundCloud waveform image

For the last months, I'm using SoundCloud's API to create an application. I had several issues, that I managed to solve, and this one I'm going to show you is one of my favorite. The waveform that soundcloud generates for a song, looks like the one I attached to the post.
It's not bad, as long as you can integrate the gray mask with your application design. If you can't then you can start to scratch your head. I did. :)

Video maximizer script

I've added a new feature to my blog and I would like to share it with you. It's damn easy and very useful, if you care about design.
The reason I created this script is that the videos I embed has various sizes and enlarging them is a boring task, so let a small code do it:

function fixVideos()
{
	// Maybe you should be more specific, than me
	var videos = document.getElementsByTagName('embed');
	var cwidth = 550; // The width you want to resize to
	var ratio = 0;
	for( i=0; i < videos.length; i++ )
	{
		ratio = videos[i].height / videos[i].width;
		videos[i].width = cwidth;
		videos[i].height = ratio * cwidth;
	}
}

That's it.
