http://www.scottgmorgan.com/blog LA Flash and Flex Developer Thu, 23 Oct 2008 06:24:39 +0000 http://backend.userland.com/rss092 en The majority of the time I use MXMLC and COMPC to compile my work via ANT tasks. Most of my work is Actionscript only projects so I rarely use the Flash IDE compiler.  Once in a while I find myself in the Flash IDE, mainly because I am working with an artists ... http://www.scottgmorgan.com/blog/index.php/2008/09/24/has-the-compiler-been-updated-in-flash-cs4/ I am not one to usually complain on my blog, mainly because I think the people reading my blog could give a rats ass about my problems. However, this time I feel I need to complain because a) it has to do with online user experience (something I am passionate ... http://www.scottgmorgan.com/blog/index.php/2008/09/09/horrible-online-experience-redbrickpizzacom/ Chrome has only been out a few hours and I have to say I already love it. My largest complaint is there isn't a Mac version of it yet. 90% of my work is done on a Mac, of the 10% of the time I spend on the PC about 5% ... http://www.scottgmorgan.com/blog/index.php/2008/09/02/chrome-thank-you-google/ Long time no blog! I just found out I will be presenting at Flash Forward in San Francisco on August 21, 2008. At this point I know I will be presenting with Neil Ishibashi, Disney.com Art Director extraordinaire. As to what exactly we will be presenting, I'm not 100% sure. I know it will ... http://www.scottgmorgan.com/blog/index.php/2008/07/31/presenting-at-flash-forward-2008-in-san-francisco/ I haven't blogged in a while, mainly because I have been extremely busy at work. One of the projects we launched tonight is the WALL-E takeover of the Disney.com homepage. Earlier this year I was lucky enough to go up to the Pixar offices (yes it is an amazing office) to ... http://www.scottgmorgan.com/blog/index.php/2008/06/24/wall-e-takes-over-disneycom/ While flying back from Toronto the other day I thought of a new URL - flashmorgan.com. I visited a comic book store in Toronto, maybe it inspired the new domain name, it is somewhat super hero-ish. It's a little more exciting then scottgmorgan.com. I don't know how many complaints I ... http://www.scottgmorgan.com/blog/index.php/2008/04/22/new-url-same-content-wwwflashmorgancom/ I kept running into blogs using the same theme I was using so I decided it was time to switch it up. This new theme isn't my final choice. I am going to be experimenting with a few new themes over the next little while. And if I find the ... http://www.scottgmorgan.com/blog/index.php/2008/04/01/looking-for-a-new-theme/ First there was the Ford Fusion (the server side vehicle), then there was the Ford Edge (the corporate newsletter of the bunch), and now the Ford Flex (the highly customizable utility vehicle). What's next, the Lincoln or Mazda CS3? Maybe the Mercury Air, or the Ford Premier. The Jaguar XK ... http://www.scottgmorgan.com/blog/index.php/2008/03/29/did-someone-at-ford-steal-the-adobe-marketing-plan/ I have been meaning to add this to my blog for quite some time now. I have read a few postings related to this topic but I am surprised there aren't a lot more people complaining about this. Personally I feel Adobe really dropped the ball with this bug. I ... http://www.scottgmorgan.com/blog/index.php/2008/03/06/accessing-displayobjects-on-the-timeline-after-a-gotoandstop-or-gotoandplay/ I recieved an email yesterday from a Microsoft technical recruiter wanting to hire me as a Flash Developer, or as they called it, a Media Author. After I laughed out loud, sent it to a few colleagues who also laughed out loud, I thought about this for a second.
