Flash and Burn
by gabo
Progress on the Flash front end for this site is coming along nicely. I might upload a preview pretty soon, though most of my time is being taken up by my job and a freelance project I’m working on with Fredo. Anyways, I’m doing it in AS3 so it’s taking me some extra time to get used to all the new goodies in Flash 9 (or is it CS3?). Yes, the new Creative Studio 3 stuff is about to be announced and, even though I’m fairly confident they’ll do ok with the new Flash IDE (judging by the Flex 2 IDE), I’m seriously hoping Fireworks doesn’t get left behind. Improved psd importing is a good thing, but if the biggest selling point for this new release is that image-gallery-maker-thinggy, I will not be impressed. I guess I should be grateful it didnt go the way of Freehand, but I just love my Fireworks. Don’t get me wrong, Photoshop is great for… uhm, “photoshopping”… but for interfaces, widgets, and general web stuff, Fireworks is the proverbial “shit“.
Also, I’ll be switching hosts pretty soon so there might be some down time. Probably not though, just sayn’.

Nice site. I am a flash developer in Miami Florida. My latest big project was a cms driven flash site (www.mcdonaldssocal.com). I was brainstormnig with my team about a new teaser and you came to mind. I referenced your teaser from waaaay back. It was the one with the mountains, birds and hand coming out of the ground, yes I’ve watche your work for that long. In anycase, any chances of putting that up somewhere? If not, it’s cool. Oh, nice job on the fan.
Yes please I thought you were no longer existant. I started visiting gabocorp in 97 maybe?? and I was wondering if you still have all of your old works. When ever I showed friends what flash is cpabale of I used to take them to your site. I even tried contracting your talents for a company logo and letter head for web. But rightfuly so I could not afford you
I still hope to work with you in the future once my next site is ready, Im sure you are triple the going rate you used to be
