[QUOTE=SataniX;33216943]I'm just messing about with three.js a little bit in order to try and learn it.
God it's complicated, but here's what i've made so far, with partial help of a tutorial.

Looks good..
I had a look at the particles code, messing around with camera angles etc. looks like fun.
I'm not sure on how much browser resources it takes up or how practicle it would be, but it'd make a cool website background.

Just realized. I'm not going to be able to do purty layer fx with SVG's as easily as I can with images.

I know......but it's going to take a lot of work to make the SVG's look purty. Plus, a lot the SVG cross-styling is kind of messy cross browser from what I've seen.

Yeah....fuck SVG's. I need to support IE7

Performed an interesting multivariate test at work today with some promising results. Sample size (per email) of a little over half a million users, testing capitalisation and it's effect on open rate.

I hate the pen tool, solely because I can't figure out how to disable the bezier curve on certain nodes.

Select the path, choose the pen tool and then hold ALT and click on the node. Curve is now gone.

Looks like I might have to use an imagemap with rollovers. This is going to suck hardcore. There's 26 areas in the map
[IMG]http://i.imgur.com/MmgEP.png[/IMG]
Oh, and should I mention....this is the top level map. There's over 300 sub-areas.
:( At least I'm getting paid by the hour.

Or flash, as a fallback for older browsers.
I'm going to use an Image Map (this is going to be a godsend: [url]http://www.maschek.hu/imagemap[/url]).
Then I'll cut out the state for each part and...put it into order.

Did you read Terabytes' post? He recommended using Illustrator to create the path points (via SVG) which is 100x better than that web app.

he wants to support IE7 i think and it doesn't support SVG
[QUOTE=Ac!dL3ak;33223450]he wants to support IE7 i think and it doesn't support SVG[/QUOTE]
The SVG file will contain all of the path points and all he needs to do is copy them over to the image map tags. You don't actually use the SVG.
The benefits of doing it this way is the use of Illustrator. That web app can't undo, or move single points around.

Only major issues are I don't think it works correctly on IE/Firefox, only tested on GChrome, aside from cookie glitches logging you out randomly.
My first shot at making a site from 100% scratch w.o framework, I think its turning out pretty nice but I still have alot to do.
