Hey Malte!

The judgement of the master of animations ...

The speed too blew me away the first time it worked.
Everything is done by computing and applying an
affine transform for the canvas.

You are **the first** who asks. It is not yet started.
Who is ready to manage that fund? (Lagi?)

> 3) How does LCB compare to JS speed wise?

It is at about the same speed compared to JS transforms,
also compared to CSS3 transforms.
But JS gives the option to access the pixels of an image
very fast by its canvas methods, LCB is slow with that.
So perspective transformations need JS (via a browser
widget).

> 4) Thanks so much for all your contributions!!!

Thanks forwarded to the LC team for creating LCB.
It allows much more things than I expected. WOW.

Now the imagewidget is kind of a (still uncomplete)
"kitchen sink" of LCB methods.

If it were possible to have *direct access* to JS in
LCB (not via a broser widget) and if also base64coding
were available then we could have kind of an image
processing app in a widget!!
All I would need is such an access to mBrowser: all
but the native display, so that HTML5 is working.
(I tried to manipulate the browser widget but had
problems with the native display.)

p.s. What is the factorial of Malte?
