You've just made my life so much easier and opened up a whole new (simpler) way of distributing and showcasing content. simply brilliant!!! I have a couple of questions. 1)I can't seem to get change the background to the unity progress bar screen. Is it possible or have I misinterpreted the documentation? 2)and is it possible to unload all other running unity apps on the wordpress page when you click on a new unity app to load? My browser crashed when multiple links happened to run at the same time on the same wordpress page. Cheers - Paul Tom!

If you want to use it and change the location then it's a trivial change in the content.php file. As to using cursor lock, that's likely a good idea but in this case I wanted to grab a project "off-the-shelf" and use it as-is so I made zero changes (sort of a demo that you don't need the source per se to use this plugin effectively).

I really hope stuff like that will help the unity player spread. Just some nitpicking on the usability side of things: After unity player has been activated, you show the 'Click _here_ to unload the Unity Web Player content' line. I'd suggest moving the link from 'here' to 'unload', really ;) Also, have you guys considered using cursor lock for the island demo? Most of the people I was showing unity to in the early days were finding it quite annoying, especially if they had stuff around the player that activates just with mouse over (like spaces or expose for some mac users). A 'click to look around' comment would be needed then, but it's a small price to pay imho. A desirable side effect might that more unity users would consider using cursor lock even for their initial demos. Oh, and: rock on :) Cool, Tom.

Most of that time has been spent in dev relations type roles so I have to be up to speed on things. My largest "project", other than Unity, was working on Director & Shockwave for 8 years. @Matthias: a “broken image”? Can you send me (via email, tom-at-unity3d.com) a screenshot?
