I rarely re post a blog that has already been posted, but in this case I think I will. I’m sure everyone already knows about the student program to get a free copy of Flex. If you are a student you can just submit your student I.D and get a free serial. For those who don’t know. Check out this link. Now according to Mr. Lee Brimelow, there is a second program tht allows developers to get a free copy if they are out of work. HOW COOL!!, Adobe is thinking about the little guys =D.

I have been applying for alot of freelance jobs lately and I don’t really have a portfolio up showcasing my flash skills. I usually just forward them here to my blog but I don’t think employers have any patience to sift through the posts. So I decided to make a little mini site that has links to my various works. It is all built in flex ( Yup, I’m learning MXML and I must say….. I like it).


This is my second Flex RIA. My first is a Flex CMS system called CGCMS, which I will be blogging about later on in the week ( stay tuned ). This is pretty cool for me as it incorporates so many technologies for it to run smoothly and be easily updated from my CMS. All the info is pulled from a database and I can update it on the fly in a matter of seconds. I think I might just do away with XML. Gonna practice more on my PHP and MySQL.

So let me know what you think. Check it out here.

I was looking in Barnes and Noble, checking out the usual magazines I always do. I happen to come across the new Flash and Flex magazine and take a look at the table of contents to see my name in bold letters. To say I was excited would be an understatement. I completely forgot that I submitted an article to FFD introducing my XMLLoader Class. Its a very good article and tutorial and I suggest anyone t check it out. Another well known author in this issue is, flash community guru, Lee Brimelow. It feels good to actually see your name in a magazine. Hopefully it will not be the last.
