Adobe used to have individual Cookbooks applications for Flex, AIR & Mobile that presented code snippets created by the community.

Now, they have combined all, with new additions, under a single Adobe Cookbooks application.

The website is a great place for finding ready-to-use code samples for Adobe products, specially ActionScript & Flex.

Besides adding new snippets, users can request for the ones that they can not find & other users can create/share them.

The new Adobe Cookbooks also offers a better search/browsing experience with titles like "related recipes" & "contributor lists".

Image Gallery is a free Flash image gallery that comes with the source code.

Settings are configured from a XML file like the names of the categories, images & folders where the images resides.

The gallery presents the images randomly or with an order (can be set via the XML file).

When a thumbnail is clicked, original image is presented in a Lightbox like Flash pop-up, images in that gallery can be browsed easily & even viewed as a slideshow.

The demo of the gallery can be viewed from here. As there is no direct link for the source file in the website, you can download it from here.

P.S. I have contacted Tony Yoo (owner of the gallery) & yes, it is free.

TweenLite is a lightweight and fast tweening engine for Flash AS2 & AS3.

It is lightweight because it only takes 3kb when published which makes it one of the smallest tweening engines around. And you can extend it with TweenFilterLite and TweenMax to add ColorMatrixFilter effects like saturation, contrast, brightness, hue, and even colorization.

Why use TweenLite rather than built-in tweening engine?

• SPEED. TweenLite is much faster.
• onComplete, onStart, onUpdate callbacks (plus the ability to pass any number of variables to them)
• autoAlpha (toggles visibility of an object off when the alpha hits zero)
• Tween multiple properties with a single call
• Delay any tween by a set amount (good for sequencing)
• Tween the tint of any MovieClip/Sprite VERY easily
• Tween the volume of any MovieClip
• more..

Usage of TweenLite is very simple:

TweenLite.to(target:Object, duration:Number, variables:Object);

is the most basic usage. You can add more variables that can be found at the product page.
