The Burned Out Hippy - Hugging Flash into Submission

FAQs

How do I install and use the classes?
Unzip the class zip files into your global actionscript folder and follow the examples that I have provide with each class. If the folder structure remains the same as it was inside the zip file (it should always be “com” then “plagro” then something else), it should work just fine. If it still isn’t working, make sure that Flash is linking to your global actionscript folder in “Edit > Preferences > Actionscript > Actionscript 3.0 Settings”. If it still isn’t working or you haven’t got a clue what I’m talking about, ask your question on the gotoandlearn.com forums – everyone there is very friendly and happy to help.

Are there any license restrictions on your classes?
No. You can use them to your heart’s content. All I ask is that out of respect you keep the com.plagro path the same and leave in my copyright notices. Also whenever you’re using them, if you’re able, a HTML link back to this website would be lovely…not necessary…but if at all possible it would help keep the site alive.

Who or what is Plagro?
Plagro is a web design and multimedia company founded by The Burned Out Hippy in 2005. Visit the Plagro website for more information.

Who or what is The Burned Out Hippy?
In the words of Douglas Adams, “Eez just zist guy ya know?”.

Can I hire you?
Absolutely. If you hire Plagro, you hire me.

Can you help me/offer me any kind of free support with the classes on this website?
I apologise if my posts aren’t clear enough and lead to people struggling with the classes – I will endeavour to make them as user-friendly as possible. However beyond that I’m afraid that I can’t help you. Not because I don’t want to, simply because 99% of the time I don’t have the time. If you’re stuck with something other than my classes, why not visit the gotoandlearn forums, they’re full of lovely people who do have the time to help you.

Can I contact you directly?
Contacting Plagro is the best way to contact me. Call the main phone line and ask for the Hippy, or send me a message through the Plagro contact form.

Alternatively, if you close your eyes and concentrate really hard you’ll hear me. Or that could be Obi-Wan Kenobi. Or Schizophrenia.

This site is the playground of the The Burned Out Hippy, head honcho of the web design and multimedia company Plagro. It serves no other purpose than to act as a place where I can store my most recent Flash ActionScript experiments. However, I will be posting code whenever an experiment is complete so that you can have a play with it yourselves.
