Oh no! Another Flash / Flex decompiler…

Well I’m not a big fan of swf decompilers, but I am a fan of this site MacZot.com since they did some promotional stuff for me recently, so I’ll throw them a bone here and pass on info about this decompiler they are selling. The screenshot looks a lot different then any decompiler I’ve seen [...]

Oh, can’t wait to start typing with this!

Check out Blambot’s newest FREE font called Firepower. ‘Tis a sweet one methinks. I like these really bold fonts in particular that he does.  I’ve said it before here, and will say it again, Nate’s newsletter is one of the best free lists to be on. He’s always got one free font and one pay [...]

A 3D Program Made with Actionscript & Papervision!

Eee-youch, my ego hurts after seeing this amazing feat of programming. Gary Stasiuk has created a 3D program and its all within a .swf! Here’s his site’s official description…

VizualPV3D is a Flash Visualization Application that provides a GUI interface to create and manipulate objects in 3D scenes using Papervision3D….

Particularly sweet Illustrator effect (and how to do it)….

Just had to pass this Illustrator tutorial along. You have to know how to read though to follow along with it, (queue sarcastic “tsssk” sound) . The end read though should help you create a great 3D text effect and it  uses one of my favorite features,  the Extrude filter in Illustrator. Which by the way,  would [...]

Ivy $12.99, Sky Bus $5.07, Water Flow $8.11…

Does that title read like I’m a berserk hobo rattling off anything that comes to his mind?… Well, close. Those are some of the prices at Cornucopia3D.com where they’ve clearly pinpointed their profit margins down to the penny. For $8.10 they won’t be in-the-black selling 3D water. But for $8.11, its shoe shine time, baby!
Despite [...]

Flash and CMS course (taught by me) coming soon

Okay, I can’t help but preview this early. Tonight I’m recording the remainder of this lesson in the works, but I wanted to show it off now for those wondering what’s coming up. And to prove I actually still do lessons for the site (after 5 months I really can’t use the “but I have [...]

Interesting way to boast sales

MacHeist.com is offering 12 of their apps for $39 , which is a good deal considering each one is around that price. But the cool thing they are doing is donating 25% to charity, and at the time of writing this, thats at least $134,000.  And they are unlocking bonus apps to their bundle if [...]

PoseManiacs.com, or why I’ve been drawing like a sucker for so long.

This site, PoseManiacs.com, is like the ultimate illustrator’s cheat sheet. Lets face it, we all like drawing, but we also like to cheat at drawing whenever possible (ahem, cough, Google Image search cough!)   And if you thought that over-priced poseable wooden figure on your desk was really helping you, then check this out. Pose Maniacs, [...]

LogoInstant! LogoInstant! LogoInstant!

I just noticed my preview image for this site has their logo in their 3 times, but heck, they deserve it. This site is one of this little gems you’re lucky to stumble on. Its like an internet gold nugget in a river of rotten oysters.  Every day they post a new logo, and just [...]
