FlashEff2 is a Flash CS3/CS4 AS3.0 component (by JumpEyeComponents, the same makers that brought you BannerSnack) that allows Flash users (from beginner to expert) to create awesome Flash stuff very fast. I was one of the first people to give the beta version of this extension a spin and I must say: This is taking the Flash experience to a whole new level.

In the past, you needed some ActionScript programming before you could actually make something really fancy with the framework. Now, FlashEff2 makes this a whole lot easier for everyone! Simply apply an effect on any MovieClip or dynamic textfield on the stage and you're ready to go. For those who aren't experienced at all with Flash, JumpEyeComponents gives you a very detailed FAQ when downloading the extension.

I wouldn't be writing this just as a teaser for all of you. JumpEyeComponents gave me the opportunity to give away FREE FlashEff2 Premium Plug Beta Invites to every single one of you! This way, you'll be able to give the extension a spin for yourself and create some very sleek Flash movies: The easy way. Just like I said: Really everyone can use this extension, it's as simple as that.

It looked like as if was yesterday that Marcofolio.net turned one, but today, this website is already two years old. It seems as if the blog-o-sphere celebrates a couple of birthday parties, since Blog.Spoongraphics, Tutorial9 and FudgeGraphics recently celebrated their birthday too!

I'm pretty satisfied with what happend the past year. I managed to give the website a whole new look and I think the quality of articles got improved. I wrote a couple of great jQuery tutorials and created the new, inspirational section.

I hope you enjoy your stay on this website as much as I do writing it. Stay tuned for more high quality articles, freebies, jQuery tutorials, inspirational articles, Joomla! extensions, CSS proof of concepts and much, much more!
