by Sas Jacobs

Welcome to part 1 of this tutorial series on creating an image gallery using Flex Builder 2. In this two part series, we'll build an image gallery application that loads external images. In part 1, we'll create the application and I'll show you how to load external photos and display a title. You'll be able to use buttons to navigate through the images in the gallery. In part 2, we'll add styling to the application and load photo details from an XML document.

In this article, I want to cover the following topics:

Setting up the project
Creating the application interface
Creating the list of images to load
Showing the first image
Creating the navigation buttons

In the second article in the series, I'll cover

Styling the interface
Adding a fade in effect to the images
Creating the XML for the image list
Loading the XML document
Finding information in the XML document

Beyond Graphing

When a graph is drawn, the focus is kept on the actual underlying competing figures that constitute the graph. Sometimes it is difficult to make assumptions just by looking at these graphs. When looking at a geographical map of data you immediately see exactly where things are happening. This article presents a .NET geographical mapping solution that will illustrate a fairly simple way of implementing these maps.
