Fridge messsage

not done much recently – been too busy… but just created a new fridge message creator using magnetic old school letters!

You can drag the magnetic letters around the fridge leaving a message for someone – enter their email address and it will send that message to them!

Your message is shown below. To begin a new one, press the “Make your own message!” button.

Create your own fridge magnet messages! Drag the letters from the left on to the main door, then enter your details
and send to a friend (or enemy….?!). To remove letters from the message, drag them back to the left side.

  • marcia

    I love you very much too!!

  • Matt Facer

    wow, thanks!

  • g

    hi, love the fridge magnet thing!!! (please dont think I’m nagging, but the automatic email that goes out has tyhe following line:

    “You have received this email becuase”

    (becuase!!??) (

  • Matt Facer

    ah yes….. that’s…erm…. a regional dialect….

  • maddy

    i ‘d rather you write on it than eat it !!
    love your maddy xx

  • jane

    novel idea, had to have 3 goes.

  • Foxxy Roxxy

    It’s a great idea! Could i suggest, numbers and punctuation add ons, and perhaps a choice of colour for each character?
    Ok ok i’ll shut up now, but I love it!

  • Matt Facer

    I’m working on a version at the mo with, punctuation and the ability to rotate letters… I’ll also get some numbers… thanks!

  • Roxxy Foxxy

    Oh Matt, I love you so

  • http://www.maybetomorrow.co.uk Phil M

    Jam is plop

  • emma

    nice idea but text input is a lot easier than drag and drop, see http://www.savtez.com/fridge/fridge.cgi as this has been going for some time, ps emma is love

  • eddthedog

    yea right, what ‘create your own message’ button is that then? Doesn’t work but a good idea.

  • http://clik.to/carola Carola}i{

    Aww… I love it! You are very creative. I really should do something in flash… but… I can’t be arsed :-/
    Anyway, you have a place on my site where my visitors can use your fridge message. I can put it down if you don’t want me to link you.
    best wishes and keep on the good work! ^_~

    Poogs, xxx

  • http://xanga.com/margoofoz margo

    Hey, this is cool but you need to add some punctuation! Great job Though!

  • phil

    novel idea great work

  • http://xenex.org Xen

    If you could only print the images as jpgs without doing a screenprint, you would be as a GOD!

    Or I would just have a lot of naughty fringe messages.

  • http://thealmightybigal.co.uk Bigal

    WOW MAN!! This is seriously the best thing I have messed about with for quite a bit… pure genuis! Love it! LOVE IT! Bows down to your feet…!! Its even greater at 5:39 AM!! WOO! Keep up the good work! :D

  • Graeme

    PURE DEAD BRILLIANT SO IT IS

  • practically perfect in every way

    excellent fun!!!

  • suzy

    I love it I’ve sent messages to my mates hinting for a night out. I did a game similar to the drag and drop theory on flash but compared to the genius that is fridge magnets it pales in comparison

  • Yosi

    The fridge sticker is fun. It does not work on Mozilla FireFox though.

  • James

    Thats right it is GOOD!

  • suzy

    As we speak I’m using it on Firefox so there ner ner ner ner ner and it rules and I’m spreading frigemagnet joy to my friends as I type…….

  • Good Afternoon Bill,

    I hope that you did not think that I was playing Solitare last night. Four more days until Graduation!!!!!! Give me a call or E-mail me so that I know that you received it!
    Love you, Pookie Pie

  • wiggly boy

    i maked a swear!

  • Sanjay Pant

    You need to device a way to reply on the message.When I reply on a certain message. I get replies like what am I talking about & then have to go back to inform reg. the context the message was sent…

    Love it all anyway…

  • celestie

    you should try typing in random #’s at the end of the address… it’s very amusing

  • Simon

    busy?

  • chris

    like it i will use it to send all my emails from now on!

  • hey asswipe

    thief.. nice stolen graphics….

    shitheads like you are an insult to the people that originally make the application

  • G. Credit

    Gee, the graphics and concept don’t look familiar at all.

    http://web.okaygo.co.uk/apps/letters/flashcom/

    Could at least give some credit…

  • Matt Facer

    What ever! Here’s a quote from Stefan Richter

    “after all it’s just some graphics, feel free to use them”

    We’ve been in touch – and I said when I next update the page, I’ll add a link to his app.

    I did make my own letters too which were used for the products.

  • grrrr……

    Bloody fantastic. Spent the last 1/2 hr at work hooked, now my mates are too. Brilliant!

  • Ed

    whatcha looking at, prick ears?

  • random

    porn.
    what you looing at Ed?

  • emma

    I would if they invented a pill it just that I love food.

    Doing my best all around me look great and I feel like king kong
    luv you

  • hey asswipe

    you are still a thief. You stole them before getting permission, and only got permission after being confronted. I wonder how many other things on this blog/site are stolen from somebody else….

    absolutely pathetic..

  • The Pavitt

    No worries Draco ate it. CP x

  • Matt F

    @ hey asswipe

    Get bent! As I explained, a mate “aquired” the letters for me, which I used in the code. Then I get an email from Stafan – so I email him back explaining. I then get my own letter images. So cock off with your accusations.
    Nout on this site is stolen.

  • Jonathan Horden

    Hello?

  • Anita

    Thank you.I loveyou too.

  • Janet

    I really liked your site and think the fridge magnets are really cool. Has anyone sent one to an enemy yet? the closest I did was send one to my sister-in-law saying “you smell” :)

  • flip

    Eg nie!

  • denise

    It’s quite easy to compile “france sux”. so handy.

  • http://www.dolfinmusic.com Rebecca

    Why do the messages not display on the fridge magnet emails?

  • Nichole

    I liked the capital letters better but the numbers and exclamation point is a great addition

  • Grant

    Defo looking at same time as wedding. Bring it on.

  • Eric

    Loads of fun !!!!!! this is realy cool !!!

  • Doug

    Where do you put the bills?

  • andy cruickshank

    oh dont you worry he wont!!!!!!!

  • http://www.tenniszoo.com john

    Great site..great idea. I am going to send all my xmas cards from here

  • lisa

    Great Site, thanks!

  • Rabbiter

    This is just such class, it’s fantastic!

  • chris fox

    quality , the misses will love it

  • http://www.frostywelcome.com Daniel Wood

    It’s a direct rip of this:
    http://www.frostywelcome.com

    which has only been up for 3 years or so…

  • http://lying no

    bastard

  • Matt Facer

    Whatever!! How the hell can you come on here saying that!? I had a project to do, and needed to learn Flash with PHP. This fridge came about as a result of that. Like I would try and copy that frostwelcome fridge thing. Mine is just a bit of fun, so why stop people enjoying it? No adverts, no money making out of it (unlike frostwelcome)… just there because I made it. How dare you come on here accusing me of copying it. I bet if we compared code, it would be completely different. “A direct Rip”. Yeah right. They look completely different.

  • WestLyfe

    I love this! Sent messages to all my friends at school and homes!

  • moo

    How can he say that? Well, for one, the idea is one and the same.

    STOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOONE HIIIIM

  • Sam

    I agree, the idea is the same, but not intentionally I dont think?!! That’s like saying, “oh I know, I’ll set up a forum about Football”… and another football forum saying “Hey, you copied us”….

  • Bored Guy

    Wow this is great i have a new site to waste hours of my life on! The stealing letters thing is good, it should have a chat window though so i can shoutat people who keep ruining my words!

  • laura

    loved messing around with the old skool magnets to send e-mails to friends.brings back memories,too….

  • Matt Facer

    The stealing letters thing is not my own work! its another site! I simply linked to it from here because it’s another magnetic letter style thing!! It’s muchos fun!! Try making a word or two – its impossible!!!!

  • Tre Pur

    Nah, that’s just a copy… Type in fridge magnets into google and you’ll find Frosty Welcome. It’s annoying but true. Either you ripped it or you had the same idea 3 years after he did. Either way, the other one is better… move on… and do your research!

  • Tre Pur

    Actually, http://www.frostywelcome.com is way cooler, Mr Dan Wood!

    I recommend that one…

  • s3e

    you’re fired.

  • http://dgfgd dgdfg

    gdfgfdgdg aHI

  • Matt Facer

    If I had intended to copy it, do you not think I would have somehow made money out of it?? Its there just because I Stumbled across an idea and needed to learn some flash!! This is the last comment I’m making on it, because frankly I am getting bored.

  • http://lying no

    If I had intended to copy it, do you not think I would have somehow made money out of it?? Its there just because I Stumbled across an idea and needed to learn some flash!! This is the last comment I’m making on it, because frankly I am getting bored.

    these are my own words!, it is not a copy of what matt facer just said, i just needed to practice my typing…

  • Matt Facer

    fair enough! nice wordage!

  • Tre Pur

    I’m getting bored too.. take it down and put something more exciting up…

  • Matt Facer

    I’ve already said, I am not taking it down. Its all my own work, so I have a right to show it.

  • Rod

    Hey Matt, it is impressive.
    If any of these people knew anything about flash and actionscript they would know that it is not as easy to steal actionscript code as it is just about any other web code.
    You just keep doing your thang mate, ignore the morons devoured by the tall poppy syndrome.

    Peace out dude

  • Matt Facer

    Cheers Rod… I think their problem was with the fact they thought I stole the idea! I wouldn’t mind if being accused of stealing actual code!! But to steal an idea… sheesh!! Thanks for the comments :)

  • Leanne

  • from russia

  • http://justgiving.com/imwellconfused paul

    pants ignore my last comment, was doing too many things at once, your fridge flash is woosome indeed

  • temah

    awesome

  • Renee

    Cool idea.

    It would be better if you added punctuation marks, special characters, etc.

    I would also like it better if you could type it in with the keyboard, but it would still look like magnets.

  • Barry

    I teach ESL and this would be a fun way to get students to write complete sentences. To make it really work in the classroom, I would need, as others have pointed out, some punctuation marks and capital letters. Any chance of that happening soon? Otherwise, it’s a good start. And don’t worry about having the letters added via keyboard. In my opinion, the whole idea is to move the letters one by one, just like one does with magnets.

  • Wathel Bloture-Herness

    It would be fabulous to archive the fridge messages! What fun!

  • Charlotte

    Woo hoo, what fun!!

    Has inspired me to get some REAL ones for the fridge at home :)

    Thank you Matt

  • Duh

    suggestion –

    add colon, dot, and slash : . / (Full stop and virgule)

    so we can send URL’s too

    Fun regardless!!!

  • Graphics Monster

    Capital Letters??? I’m trying to put together a graphic like a fridge and need bigger resolution letters. It will take to long to pull everything out of a big image.

  • http://www.dandy.net.au/ Fridge Magnets

    I remember these fridge magnets back when I was younger. Great work!

  • Timmy

    It doesn’t appear to work anymore. I compose a message and enter my own email address and despite it saying the message has been sent I don’t receive any email. I’ve tried a few times. A shame, as I really like the idea.

  • Nis

    interested in this script, where can i find this source…

    Great idea, i have something similar in mind

  • http://old-school-arcade-flash-games.blogspot.com Classic games

    Hey these magnets would come in handy to make small shopping lists or give messages to people, i like it :)

  • Rob Thurber

    Matt Facer, you STOLE this idea from the Frosty Welcome page!!!

  • mattfacer

    I didn’t “steal” anything! It’s a post which is 8 years old now! (Nov 2004).

  • Beth

    Hey Matt, great website, lots of variety! Thanks for all your hard work :) :)
