I’m starting a small project on my own time – more details at a later date – that is going to be Flash based. Since I don’t have previous Flash experience I’ve started digging into ActionScript programming a bit. I figured I might as well start posting some of the little toys I create during the learning process if they end up being at least remotely interesting. Expect these to get better over time!
First off I created a little mouse and rendering test. I saw a screenshot of something drawn with circles that was similar to this elsewhere on the web. I decided to copy it in Flash and unlike the black and white original image I saw I added a little flair by giving the surrounding circles a gradual gradient. Move the mouse around the window to move the gradient and circle rendering size.
