Skinning Flex with Degrafa and FXG
For my session at Flash Camp Birmingham I wanted to introduce people to declarative skinning within Flex. I was skinning Flex applications back in Flex 2 and to get the right visual appeal it was quite a tricky thing to get right. There was a reliance on heavy external assets brought into Flex and scaled using Scale9 techniques. There were many times I wanted to have better control of the UI I was creating through not only a more advanced CSS capability but without having to resort to creating skins from scratch directly with the Flash drawing API.

Flash Camp London presentation
I was super excited to give a session at Flash Camp London today to Flash creatives from around the UK.
The camp was aimed more at the designer and creative side of Flash and we wanted to show some of the new and shiny features of Flash CS4. Some great speakers attended and I was honored to have presented on the same bill as some of the most renowned and respected individuals in the Flash scene.
