Jigsaw

This utility was my first go at making a Moodle-integrated item. It's implemented in Flash client-side and PHP server-side. It produces web-page-embedable Flash jigsaw widgets from an image of your choice. Server-side code chops up your uploaded image into a grid of smaller image files (the GD image library is needed for this - that's the same library Moodle uses, so chances are you've already got it installed) then gives you those image back, bundled with a Flash object into a .zip file.

Go and try an example jigsaw.

My intention here was to make a generic content generation tool, not necessarily a Moodle-specific tool. Yes, sure, Moodle is good and all, but other systems exist.

This is a work still in progress. At the moment, there's a bug in this code which means that only 400 by 400 pixel images work correctly. I'll get around to fixing that and also maybe make an activity module that uses the same basic Flash object.
