Flash Master Forges The Fuse Kit -- Flash Fans Rejoice

Oct 22 2006

I’m not sure how to pronounce Moses Gunesch’s last name.  Is the stress on the first syllable or the second?  He’s simplified things for us by mercifully naming his website “MosesSupposes.com." But I do know how to pronounce his super hero name.  Flash Master. 

Moses is the creator of The Fuse Kit, a powerful animation, event-sequencing, and BitmapFilter toolset for Flash coders.  It’s revolutionized the laborous process of scripting a sequence of events and effects in Flash’s Actionscript.  While Fuse is built on the pioneering work of Robert Penner, Ladislav ‘Laco’ Zigo, Danilo Sandner and Björn Wibben, Moses gets the credit for pushing the envelope.

Moses offers The Fuse Kit for free download but this Flash coder will be making a donation to his beer fund.  Cheers Moses.

Great Site for Learning Advanced Flash

Jul 15 2006

Lee Brimelow should get a medal (or a brown bag of cash) for his Flash tutorial site at www.gotoandlearn.com.  It’s a treasure trove of advanced techniques for Flash developers and it’s all free—a welcome respite from the rude crowd of pay tutorial sites popping up on the web. 

The material is fairly high-end so expect to be confused if you’re a newbie to Flash.  But if you’re over the beginner’s hump and have dabbled with Actionscript, you’ll find his 5-10 minute video tutorials simply engrossing.  Kudos to Lee.
