Who needs 4 round corners when you can have 1 or 2 that fade into oblivion?

There are a few reasons why this is not only kinda cool, but also a good idea for optimizing your site or blog:

1. It just looks cool.

2. It effectively separates content and keeps load times down because the background only loads once and doesn’t repeat.

3. It gives you freedom in your layout. Having a border that fades into your background enables you to leave the height and/or width of the column up to the content. For example, if you have a fading corner on the each section of the sidebar in your blog, you can add as many links as you want into that section and your CSS only loads one background image.

Putting your applications folder in your dock enables you to get rid of icons in your dock that you rarely use, and still have 1-click access to all of your installed applications. This not only keeps your dock clutter-free, it makes it easier to navigate to your applications folder after you install an application. (For example, a recent freeware install.)

Watch the video.

[Mac OS X] Get access to all of your installed applications without having to put their icons in your Dock. Simply add your Apps folder to the Dock.

No more easing with Motion Tweens. These 3 lines of code are (in my opinion) the most important for ANY flash user:

This code creates realistic high quality tweens with easing and can be applied to any movie clip in your Flash movie. Using actionscript to animate greatly reduces the file size of your flash movies (which makes your load times much quicker) because it eliminates the need for a timeline to execute the tween. You should get to know these 3 lines of code intimately. If you are a beginner at actionscript, this can look scary at first, but I promise you, it will save you endless hours of work. Download the examples and play with the code. Each example on this page is a single-frame flash movie. Read the rest of this entry »
