There we are, 2009 came around quicker than thought. The end of 2008 turned out quite turbulent, let’s see what 2009 brings for surprises, but my feeling tells me it will be an event rich year. It has just started, so let’s not waste any time, the end of the decade will be around the corner faster than we expect it again.

One of my ambitions I want to accomplish before Februar starts, is a revamp of this Blog. It is in the meantime getting quite a bit of attention, and it is slowly growing from a personal codeDump to a online actionscript and flash related Code reference for a wider community of  online users. 

This is great news, but this also means I have a bit more responsability in making it clearer, more usable, and qualitatively better, to get more interaction from the community, and encourage more discussions and exchange of Knowledge.

Big words for a small Blog.

greetings,

small slim flex application where yo can upload your image and convert it into an .ico file.

A new tool I love using, first it is in AIR, secondly immensely useful, is from Arthropod this little AIR application that let's you trace debug messages even from an embedded swf.

I never was a fan of Adobe's debug flash player, as it sometimes did cause weird behavior, especially after upgrading to FF3. So this little Air app gives you a wide range of functions to organise your debug traces well, including coloring, clearing, even snapshots of current Application, as I said even for in HTML embedded swfs or Air apps.
give it a go:

simply add the class to your source, import and use it:

there are many other ways to trace, read the documentation for more info
