We have many types for computer files and of course images, and some extension are just for image files and they have many differences but I like to focus on a useful feature in some kinds of images like JPG (except JPEG 2000), this king of images has an internal thumbnail format, it’s very interesting to have a smaller size inside the original photo, suppose your application (ex. photo gallery) wants to show images for first time and your gallery needs to load images and resize them into small thumbnails and add them on the stage. But resizing is a worthless thing when you have a built-in thumbnail photo!

Exif (Exchangeable image file format) is a format used by digital cameras; camera stores some necessary data (called Tag in this format) inside the JPG images (like Resolution, Camera’s Model, Flash, Date Time , Shutter Speed and many other).
As I said above we have many Tags in some kinds of photos but when you need to get these parameters in your Flash/Flex Project you must have an improved loader because default loader in ActionScript is not compatible with Exif standard.

These days I have had some projects around Flash games, and I think building games with AS3 topic is the best suggestion for me!
We have many ActionScript frameworks to build games, and I don’t think need to explain more about all of these frameworks (although I think it’s a very good topic for a few blog posts), but eventually we need a basic framework to do our project, and I selected flixel 2 framework among those libraries.

Hi,
I believe working with bytes was one of the best things in ActionScript 3.0 and it was a big jump in this language, but in these days it’s a usual stuff and many of AS3 developers have good knowledge about that, Although it’s really a deep sea and you need to know many things about that. (here’s a good resource for AS developers).

Hi,
Today I was thinking about several small points about game development in AS, it’s not a bad idea because when you want to create a game, you need some knowledge about your language abilities, resources requirements, frameworks and limitations in your platform or framework, and now I want to talk about these subjects.

Hi,

Have you ever used custom events in your projects?
Always, you need to use events in codes to manage anything like frame rate, mouse, keyboard events or something like these, Events are very helpful but sometimes you need to move or store values between the event dispatcher and the listener.

Hi,
Finally I made my decision and created a personal blog.
I have a small plan for this blog and I don’t want to write about anything or every interesting and hot news, I’d like to write quick notes about my experiences and programming tips & tricks or creative subjects around Flash Platform and some topics like these.
