Hello, Many screenshots of Flex applications here: http://www.flickr.com/photos/flexapps/ Many of them look not at all like the out of the box look of Flex. Regards, David Adobe

You are not limited like you think... If a component won't do what you want, you can always re-skin it. Here's an example of a Flex site that looks pretty much nothing like the standard skin: http://www.thebetterside.com/scrawl/ScrawlExample3.html <http://www.thebetterside.com/scrawl/ScrawlExample3.html> Shan Paul Barbieux wrote: Hi; I'm a developper but also a web designer. And I'm a beginner with Flex... But I am frustrated with the possibilities of design of Flex. All Flex applications I saw have same look: great buttons and input fields, great gap between lines. Every elements are great: these applications look like Fisher-price toys ! (you know ? Toys for children) Yes, the http://www.scalenine.com/ <http://www.scalenine.com/> shows beautiful themes. But all components have same size ! A have made a click-model for an application in HTML, and now I must write it with Flex: I loose 1/3 of my page because I can't reduce gab between lines, I can't reduce padding between the label and the border of the buttons, ... (oh yes I can reduce all elements: but labels and texts become trucanted !) - Does a solution exist? - Can someone show me a Flex site where there is a real work of design? - Can I expect improvements with Flex 3.0 ? Thank's
