SuperImage from Quieting Scheming is a must use and an excellent replacement for the Image component for List Component in Flex. If you have tried to develop mashup that tap into Flickr / YouTube / any type of API that load into thumbnail and images, you will realize that if your List control scrolls, the image will flicker very badly. This is because the image is not cached internally and thus this impact very badly on the performance as well as to the scrolling. My previous ’solution’ is to make sure that the user do not get the chance to scroll, and thus, only fetching a pre-setted number of results. This problem is solved by the Super Image, which caches the images internally.
If you are facing the same problem, download SuperImage now and try it on your Flex application. You will be surprised!

AsWing is a set of UI components for Actionscript 3.0. Like Flex, it has its own series of components like VBox, Buttons, etc, and are skinnable with customizable look and feel. The good thing about AsWing is that you do not need to have a Flex project to use it. You can build it upon a pure AS3 project.
Since it is based from its Java sibling Swing, Java developers will find its API very familiar.

“Look mum, this is not in Flex!”

Finally got this bug fixed with the help of Alvin and Campbell Anderson. Both of which has been bugged by me numerous times to help me test the application.
For those who cannot see the application previously, you should be able to see it now. Got to download and install it though, since those who face this problem cannot click on the ‘update’ button. Thanks guys!

AirTalkr v0.2 is finally out after a long wait from v0.1.9. We got a new logo this time thanks to Flashmech and Darakusan. Both of them helped me to design logos and UI suggestions . The reason for the wait is due to numerous request to change the UI here and there. My focus next will be to increase usability in Flickr and YouTube modules which I have left untouched to solve the main IM bugs and improvements.
2 most significant bug fixes are
1) multiple chat window opened for single user
2) AirTalkr crash when receive a message for the first time
and a few improvment here and there, especially support for resizing of the main IM, and chat History viewing

I still got a couple of UI to skin (the ugly scrollbar is top of my list).
Note that I am not embedding text here as I want to support CJK (chinese jap korean) characters and minimizing the file size to 1mb.
Once again, keep the feedback coming!

I managed to build AirTalkr v0.1.8 with a separate chat window. Previously, I am unable to do so due to AIR bugs and workaround does not seems to work for me. Yesterday, I thought I tried it again and it suddenly just work. What I did is to add the chat window only to a native window after its onCreationComplete event. So now you get a sweet tabbed chat window by it. This is the new screen shot for AirTalkr:


New Features:
Displaying of the buddy network (whether they are on MSN, or Yahoo, etc) as requested
Fixed Bug:
Removal of Buddy is not working
YouTube font is not showing correct
When click on Add Account, the popup window remains
When click on Add Buddy, there are duplicated server to chose from
When run AirTalkr with no network, error arise
For those who have downloaded, you will get the auto update by running it.
