The other area where STREAM is useful is switching the Flash player to ââ¬Åabsolute framerate keepingââ¬Â mode. If you donââ¬â¢t use any STREAM sound (or any sounds at all) and set the movieââ¬â¢s framerate to 25 fps it DOESNââ¬â¢T MEAN that the player will play the movie with 25 fps! The actual framerate will depend on many things but mainly on CPU power.

It would be worth keeping a watch over BB’s website, some cool intro in 3D and 3D effects punctuated across the site. Words are already spreading across the designer’s community of the new version being released very soon. I suggest watching the site on the highband option.

More and more people are turning to CSS to separate as much as of their design from the content and more importantly to free their html layout from the shackles of tables. Tables are thus best left for tabular data display. I had nurtured myself a layout done purely through CSS 2.0 and a doctype of XHTML 1.0 transitional a few weeks back, Philippe Wittenbergh was helping me with the layout, trying to get around to it using many hacks. But in due course of hacks over hacks, one day my site get caught in the ALA cut of bug, or the “guillotine bug”.
Bugs and their hacks! Read about the “3px jog”, the Tan hack and the IE5 Mac hack.

I had been teaming up with some of the good 2D / 3D animator in their respective industry, they have given me some sample files which can be made public and few others which I cannot. The ones that are online can be viewed at http://www.brajeshwar.com/showcase/2d_3d_promo/. Enjoy and remember these guys are good in their work but they have a very nominal pricing structure. Moreover, they have already set a good example in the local market and are desparate to come out to the international arena and on the internet for a better exposure. Be careful for slow …

The MX Certification Voucher gifted to me by Macromedia was with me for sometime, then today I went out to try out with the Macromedia Flash MX Designer Certification. I know it is easy and far less inferior to the developer examination but then I am yet to come to a level to even think of the developer certification, so I went in for the designer certification.

“Workers who code software need a different visa than those who install software. ‘The Dutch government had a preconceived notion that our employees had gone to Amsterdam to do coding,’ Padalkar said. ‘Coding requires a different work permit that takes nine to 18 months to procure. ‘”

w.bloggar have released its latest version, 3.01 and included a new feature which I was waiting for quite sometime, the extended entry for movable type blog. “Support to the “Extended Entry” field on MovableType blogs thru the special tags , is a good idea to add it as Custom Tag if you often use the “Extended Entry”. Though it sports many other plug-ins like winamp, windows media player 9 and the like, which are OT for flash bloggers, on the overall score this tool is a nifty cool tool, you will never need to open movable type interface to blog. …
