Now that I’m at a company that’s paying me to use the A.S. and basic Flash that I have learned I have more time and peace of mind to go back and really hammer in my fundamentals. The best book I’ve found for this so far is Derek Franklin and Jobe Makar’s training from the [...]

I don’t really feel like going through my introduction quite yet. I apologize for that. I write in a stream of consciousness. I apologize for that also. My final disclaimer- as much as you hear me complain about medical school take it with a very large grain of salt in light of the fact that [...]

Weird day at work
August 24th, 2004 · No Comments
Today at work was weird because I was coding all day working on a series of not too complicated graphic tasks. The weird part was the fact that a lot of the A.S. that I had been studying and using in stupid little tutorials etc was coming back to me as actually useful. [...]

August 13th, 2004 · 1 Comment
Although I know they always warn about using undocumented classes in Flash. I found a useful article about an Easing Class that’s got 16 different eases including some elastic ones and an onMotionEnd event handler.
2. I’m trying to get a collection of AS libraries started or at least references to them. As [...]

This is the hugest collection of tutorials on A.S.2.0
very very soon I have to organize this blog for my own sanity.
Right now I’m plowing through “Foundation Actionscript for Flash MX2004″ by Sham Bhangal. It may be the best AS book for me thus far. I’ve read a lot of complaints about how [...]

EAS 2.0
August 6th, 2004 · No Comments
I was on my 3rd read of Essential Actionscript when something dawned on me- well actually two things.
1. Nobody cares about the kind of Flash-Blog I keep but me. It’s unintelligable, the thought pattern is tangential and it’s boring. Plus I’m officially so deep in geekland that my son’s mother gets the [...]
