UI, MXNA, RegEx, and More

by Devon O.· April 04, 2008· in Actionscript, Flash, Life· 6 comments
Just finished retooling a small package of six user interface tool/widget classes. While not extremely customizable, they are very lightweight (being entirely scripted). And of course you are welcome to mess with the script to produce something more suited to your own application design. You can check out an example here, view the documentation here, and download the .zip file of all the classes here, if interested. I also just discovered this morning that this blog has been added to the mxna aggregator. Kind of a nerdly thing, but it’s a rather prestigious honor. I’ve been getting most of my news of the Flash/Flex/Actionscript world from the fullasagoog and mxna blogs for what seems like ever, and now my own blog is a member of each. It’s a very nice feeling. For anyone new to RegEx (or old for that matter), Grant Skinner has just released a cool new Air application to try out. Get more info and the download here. Me, I’m still waiting for an Air version of gModeler for AS3 to come about. What a frabjous day that’ll be. So, I was just playing around in LinkedIn today (hence the shiny new button in the column to the right) and joined the […]

Officially Certifiable

by Devon O.· March 14, 2008· in Flash, Life· 0 comments
They all said the day would come.. But you know the sorts of things “They” like to say… But after returning from another sisyphean week of floating in the Atlantic, I discovered the Good News in my inbox. Back in December I was one of the lucky few (or many – who knows) who was allowed to participate in the beta program for Adobe’s new ACA (Adobe Certified Associate) test. Long story short, I am now an official Adobe Certified Associate in Rich Media Communication using Adobe Flash CS3.. Whew.. that’s quite a mouthful…  For a gander at the certificate, check out the little ACA badge in the sidebar to the right. And the pantokrator smiles…

Blist

by Devon O.· February 24, 2008· in Flash, Life· 0 comments
So I just signed up for an account with this new Flex based online spreadsheet/database application, blist (“web list”), and my first impression is that this is one hell of a sleek and sexy app. Haven’t actually played with it long enough to guage its usefulness or usability, but it sure is a purty thang. Among other things, it allows users to upload a preexisting csv file to create a new blist db, it allows photos, checkmarks, star ratings and lists as column/data types and makes very easy user generated queries. What I’m hoping it has is an external api. Perhaps one could make a desktop interface in AIR or another flex/flash app that taps into the information stored inside a blist account. Hell, it might actually be used as a CMS for a different front end project. Even without an accessible api, though, it definitely looks interesting and deserves further investigation.  Check out a video here for more info.

Sleep Has His House

by Devon O.· February 23, 2008· in Liberty, Life· 0 comments
While living in Sicily a couple years back, I had the opportunity to visit the dilapidated, yet still standing, Abbey of Thelema in Cefalu. The house stands completely surrounded by trees in the shadow of a relatively new soccer (excuse me, I mean football) stadium. The murals orginally painted by Aleister Crowley, painted over by the superstitious locals, then uncovered by Kenneth Anger are still in relatively good condition. Why the house still stands is a complete mystery to me, but I’m glad and comforted by the fact that it does. I thought I’d post some pictures in case anyone else may be interested. “Do what thou wilt shall be the whole of the Law…”

Image Viewer Test

by Devon O.· January 20, 2008· in Flash, Life· 0 comments
Just a quick test to see if I can get this sliding thumbnail/image viewer thing to work in WordPress.. Here’s hoping…  Edit: Aha! it does work.. just tricky as hell to implement.. Carry on.. nothing to see here….
