May Meeting Subject
I’ve been thinking about what to do for the May meeting. I wanted to do something a little less technical, and a little more creative. I didn’t have any volunteers, so I decided to take it on myself. At FiTC last week, I did a presentation on the BitmapData class in Flash 8. It went over really well. In fact, here is what Mike Chambers from Adobe had to say about it:
(The full podcast can be found at http://weblogs.macromedia.com/mesh/archives/2006/04/podcast_april_2.cfm)
Basically, I go over some background on bitmaps vs. vectors, then walk through some of the functions you can use to make and manipulate bitmaps in Flash 8, then present a whole bunch of really cool examples.
I want to make this the biggest BFPUG meeting ever. So put this on your calendar!
Meeting time and location: Wednesday, May 24, 2006 at 7:00 p.m. at NEIA.
