How would you create a series of images that have been loaded in from database, which are the subsequently masked within a circle. Then give the user the ability to drag each image into an action area that initiates a action?
Oh and if the user releases the respective image, it snaps back to its original position?

Courses Plus Student 138 PointsAwesome, didn't expect a response from the man himself! Thanks for the tip. I'm a novice at Xcode, and your tutorials have been great. Can you do one about masking images say in a circle - and the images have been dynamically brought in from MySQL? Also, if I were to submit an app that literally only does the UIWEBVIEW method to bring in a mobile friendly site, would something like that get approved?
Thanks for your help.

Treehouse Guest TeacherGlad you are enjoying the tutorials. Sorry, don't think I can make one off videos on specific topics it's just not feasible. As for the UIWebView sure that is completely acceptable. If you only want to use HTML/JS/CSS then I'd highly recommend using PhoneGap.
James Mann
Courses Plus Student 138 PointsUnderstandable! I've heard a lot of rumours that Apple don't approve apps that only utilize the UIWebView. In your experience is that not true?
How do you decide what to do your tutorials on?
Thanks for the help bud.

Treehouse Guest TeacherNah. I think those rumors are completely baseless. As for the tutorials, our goal is to teach the most common aspects of the iOS SDK so you can get a good foundation to go on and build apps on your own. The iOS SDK is vast and it's impossible to cover everything.

Courses Plus Student 138 PointsI've looked at PhoneGap and have no idea how to implement that stuff. I downloaded the files but there's no instructions on what to do with it.
So if i send an app literally using the UIWebView to open up a web friendly site, that'll get approved?
James
P.S. I'll leave you alone after this last message ;)

Treehouse Guest TeacherHmm... if you simply open up a website using UIWebView then you might get turned down. You have a better chance of getting an app approved if you build a mobile web app using jQuery Mobile or Sencha Touch which gives it the look and feel of a native mobile app.
