Hi! I hope, you’re already celebrated a New Year 2011 and have a nice holidays!
This year is just started and there are a lot of the interest news around already. I think, some of them could be interest to you, so I’m glad to share this news with you.

You could create a nice and smooth “color blink” effect for any DisplayObject, including TextField instances with a few lines of the code using TweenMax:
import com.greensock.easing.Cubic;
import com.greensock.plugins.ColorMatrixFilterPlugin;
import com.greensock.plugins.EndArrayPlugin;
import com.greensock.plugins.TweenPlugin;
import com.greensock.TweenMax;
/* run this line only once (as example, you can put it into the main document's constructor or your initialization function) */
TweenPlugin.activate([ColorMatrixFilterPlugin, EndArrayPlugin]);
/*and use this line later to start blinking */
TweenMax.to(anyDisplayObject, 1, {colorMatrixFilter:{colorize:0x74F88E, amount:1}, repeat:-1, yoyo:true, ease:Cubic.easeInOut} );
By the way, be careful with TintPlugin or ColorTransformPlugin while tweening TextFields with TweenMax – you can notice some lags or jerks in the tween animation.

This is a great project!
To be short – just try it and enjoy nice visuals for the music from the soundcloud or form your hard disk.

So, this is a first post here.
Just launched this blog and personal site with one recent experiment.
Great thanks to:
– Dan Gries for his perfect perlin-based snowfall engine
– Christian Corti for his awesome AS3 Amiga Soundtracker Module Replay class (FLOD)
(it could be a flashModPlug, but sources or swc are not released to the public yet)
– 0xFFFFFF and Flastar for support and useful comments
– my girl for patience and care while I was busy with this experiment
If you like that Amiga snow and want it’s source – just comment here and I’ll see – maybe I’ll clean it a bit and prepare for a public.
