So I did it. I am now on Twitter. I think we (the world) are still trying to figure out what to do with Twitter and of course the business heads are busy trying to figure it out too.

By twitter name, byjamin. TWEET ME!
I also found some great resources on how to integrate Twitter within your Flash applications and many many others. More later on that…

First American Brands contacted me to pull some visual inspirations for Bill Blass’ new fragrance. I was very excited to be asked to be a part of this project and look forward to working and putting the final touches on what will soon be an internationally well known fragrance and campaign.
So I always get questions about streaming FLV players. For special effects like the fire on Acidbetty.com or intro movies and simple embedded flv video players. So one issue I came up with was displaying the length of the video and also the current frame of the video in regard to minutes and seconds.
So the actionscript code below is the code I used to display current time playing and the total time of video. ie: 1:32 / 2:45.
Sell your work and get paid or find vector shapes you need to finish off a new project or buy a looped video to give your website that special edge you were looking for.

When Pigs Fly… Has 3 steps. The first is like frogger, where you have to dodge the cars and then jump from cloud to cloud to collect each star.
Step 2, you use your space bar and jump from cloud to cloud as fast as possible and the last step is when you get to fly… Miss the bad guys and then in the very last level collect the magic stars which in return sends rays that hit the bad guy and in the end killin’ him.
Good luck!!
I have yet to beat it. Maybe you will.
