Late last year, Jason Liske from Redwood Design wrote to me about creating a photo gallery component in Flash. Nothing too extreme, just preload images and thumbnails. When you click on a thumbnail, the full sized image and any text associated with the image would cross-fade into view.

I made the component (actually three components that work together). On their own (during testing) they didn't really look like much. But they did what they were required to do and Jason seemed pleased with it.

Jason sent me an e-mail today to let me know that the site he was working on for Bernard Trainor & Associates is now live. The photo gallery is under the "Projects" link. Jason has done so much great design work, I could hardly tell what parts are the components I made. Some really nice work on his part.
