Gingerbread men skins are the next big thing, apparently :-)

Thanks for the links, I had seen the programmatic approach before but
was hoping to go with just an artwork approach.
 
I'll see how the designer gets on with this!
 
Thanks,
 
Mark

Hi Mark,

Using the Flex Component Kit and Flash CS3 you can do what you're
looking for. I just wrote a tutorial about using the FCK to create a
"stateful" skin with transitions. You can read it here :
http://tinyurl.com/yoxqcq <http://tinyurl.com/yoxqcq>  .

The tutorial describes how to make a basic transition, but you could
easily elaborate on it to do what you're looking for.

Hope that helps.

Juan
