MP3 Player - AS3 Version

Okay, I've updated the MP3 player. it's in AS3 now.

the functionality is pretty much the same, although I did change how the EQ bars work.

As before, I haven't included any sample MP3 files, so you'll have to put some in a "tracks" directory and update the XML file with the path to your songs.

RSS Reader - AS3

Here's an RSS reader that displays the first item in the feed.

You can extend it show more items. All of the text is written out in action script, so you can change the size of the textFields as well as the colors used.

You can see it in action on the homepage of my blog (www.aliseya.com). It's on the lefthand side, underneath "Latest Post on OpenFlashForum.com". It gets the RSS feed from OpenFlashForum.com, but you can replace it with any feed you like.

Enjoy!

Slider Puzzle

New Source has finally been added.

Okay, it's been a while since I put up some new code but here's a slider game, that demonstrates how to copy an image at runtime (that's how the individual pieces are made), using Bitmap.draw() and Matrix.translate()



So while the game is not really that interesting, once you're aware of using Bitmap.draw() to copy sections of the screen, you can use this knowledge to manipulate your images in other ways...

Also, you can swap out the image with your own, or if you're familiar with file uploads, you can build an application to take user supplied files.

At some point, I'll put up and AS3 version...but no promises about when
