New Blog, Cursor Effects

Saturday, March 15th, 2008

Hey, welcome to my new blog!

This new blog will make it tons easier for me to keep you posted on news from Kabomb, as well as flash related news from around the web. I’ll also be able to post open source tutorials, prototypes, and flash experiments that you can follow. You’ll be able to comment on all my posts and I’ll try to reply to the ones that need a reply, if not just email me.

If you have no idea what flash is or you want to get into it, you can download a free trial from the Adobe Website where you’ll also need flash player (you should already have it) to see all the examples on your web browser.

Okay, let’s get down to business - my first tutorial - Cursor Effects. This lets you create effects like those in my Cursorized series where MC animations continually come out at the cursor which creates a really cool effect.

Here’s what I did.

Now I’ll explain how I did it.
