New kreativeKING VideoPlayer API

I finally released the kreativeKING Videoplayer API. I'm sure you all remember the old VideoViewer and ProgressionBar classes. Well this new set of API does away with those and replaces with a plethora of new classes to make your video player creating processes much easier. Spend more time on design than on programming. Some of the 10+ classes released are VideoWindow ( Replacement of the VideoViewer Class ), VideoPanel ( ProgressionBar replacement) and the VideoControl Classes. These are the main 3 classes that you will be using to the video players logic. I will post later on a short tutorial on creating a video player using the API.

New AS3 Tutor

Woot!!!, just a really small post. You are reading this post from the new AS3 Tutor at the Borough of Manhattan Community College. I actually got the good news a couple days ago, but I would like to share it with the world =D.

In addition, if anyone needs any help with Actionscript 3.0 or needs a private tutor, don't hesitate to drop me an email. In the next coming days I have some interesting things to post about ranging from new FlashDen products to new published articles. So be on the lookout for those, or you know what is even better?? Just subscribe and I'll let you know. =D Happy Flashing people.

Javascript and Actionscript Conversation

This weekend my good friend Peter Panton asked my for some help setting up some communication between Javascript and Actionscript. He wanted to be able to get the scroll value of the HTML page and use it in Flash. To be honest, I never did any kind of communication between the two and had no idea where to start. I did some research and came across the ExternalInterface Class.

New QuickView Portfolio Mini Site

I have been applying for alot of freelance jobs lately and I don't really have a portfolio up showcasing my flash skills. I usually just forward them here to my blog but I don't think employers have any patience to sift through the posts. So I decided to make a little mini site that has links to my various works. It is all built in flex ( Yup, I'm learning MXML and I must say..... I like it).

Now a PUBLISHED AUTHOR

I was looking in Barnes and Noble, checking out the usual magazines I always do. I happen to come across the new Flash and Flex magazine and take a look at the table of contents to see my name in bold letters. To say I was excited would be an understatement. I completely forgot that I submitted an article to FFD introducing my XMLLoader Class. Its a very good article and tutorial and I suggest anyone t check it out. Another well known author in this issue is, flash community guru, Lee Brimelow. It feels good to actually see your name in a magazine. Hopefully it will not be the last.

AIRUploader Preview

I know I haven't been posting as frequently as I used to, but I have good reason. The AIRUploader is one of those reasons. This is a project I have been working on in the past week and a half. It started out as just practice for learning how to use the FileReference class, but then grew to be muuuuuuch more.
This application is essentially a drag and drop FTP Uploader. I sometimes hate uploading files. Signing in, looking for directories, etc etc. So I decided to make this application. It will save your login information so you don't have to keep entering your information.
