Warning to Flash Developers

Dear Flash developer,

Please read carefully the following rules. This will ensure you will enjoy Mobiclip and use it at its full potential.

Rule #1: Mobiclip is *not* a Flash player
Mobiclip is a MO file player. Our ambition is to provide the easiest way to create contents for mobile phones, not to support all Flash features. Flash is one among many import formats.
Please refer to the Mobiclip Manual to see how you can develop great Mobiclip contents using Flash.
Rule #2: A mobile phone is *not* a computer; design your content accordingly
Your mobile phone is not nearly as powerful as your computer. There is little chance that tons of shapes and thousands of lines of code will run smoothly on a phone. Moreover, a mobile phone usually has a small screen, a strange keyboard and no mouse. Take care of this if you want people to enjoy your contents.
Corollary: trying to convert an SWF file from the Internet (designed for a computer) is probably a bad idea.
Rule #3: While developing, continuously check your content with the MoSimulator
Do not postpone SWF to MO conversion. Convert your content to Mobiclip as often as possible, and check that it works fine in the MoSimulator.
Immediately correct any MoSimulator warning. A warning means a problem, even if all looks ok. The more you wait, the more painful it will be. You will find that immediately correcting warnings helps you finding hidden bugs in your ActionScript programs.
Rule #4: While developing, regularly check your content on an actual phone
The MoSimulator does not emulate the device speed. Consequently, the only real way to test your content is to run it on a real phone. Do this regularly if you do not want to waste your time on features you will be obliged to cut.
Rule #5: Tell the Mobiclip support about any issue, defect or misunderstanding
This will ensure the best product quality. Do not forget to provide us with a small FLA file that illustrates the issue.
Despite rule #1, please signal any difference with Macromedia Flash. We will do our best to correct it.

How to Charge for your Services

Copy from http://www.qassia.com/how-to-charge-for-your-services Are you a freelancer and wondering how to charge for your services? Some of us share their secrets of charging more for less! Please allow me to share my experiences on web development. There are lots of people I am sure would be interested to know the 'market price' or how much to charge for their services. I been setting up websites about 10 years ago, self thought. I am quite a lousy designer but I am quite good at modifying and better still at understanding what client wants. Today I no longer do web business but hire web developers to run my retail/distribution business. I use to charge RM2000-RM10000 per site. I do not care whether it is simple or difficult to handle but I calculate myself if I were to work 8 hours a day at a company, probably I'll get paid at RM 2500 a month so I work back my time. If I have to spend with a customer 40 hours a week developing, consulting the clients, I would charge R...

Halloween..

woaaa..ada macam 2 pantang larang juga dlm sambutan Halloween.. * hmm..ya laa..tak pnah sambut.. tak tau aa* * All Souls in Purgatory are released for forty-eight hours for All Hallows Eve. On this night they are free (Gaelic). * On Halloween, the wind blowing over the feet of the deceased bears sighs to the houses of those about to die within the year (Wales). * If you go to the crossroads at Halloween and listen to the wind, you will learn all the most important things that will befall you during the next twelve months. * If you take a three-legged footstool and sit at a crossroads while the church clock is striking twelve on Halloween, you will hear proclaimed aloud the names of the church parishioners doomed to die within the next twelve months. If you throw an article of clothing belonging to any one of those doomed people into the air and call out their name, you can keep death from stalking at their door (Highlands of Scotland). * To ensure fertility of crops during the coming...

Ntahapaapantah..

KLIK.. +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ I was in the airport VIP lounge en route to Seattle a couple of weeks ago. While in there, I noticed Bill Gates sitting comfortably in the corner, enjoying a drink. I was meeting a very important client who was also flying to Seattle, but she was running a little bit late. Well, being a straightforward kind of guy, I approached the Microsoft chairman, introduced myself, and said, "Mr. Gates, I wonder if you would do me a favor." "Yes?" "I'm sitting right over there," pointing to my seat at the bar, "and I'm waiting on a very important client. Would you be so kind when she arrives as to come walk by and just say, 'Hi, Ray,'?" "Sure." I shook his hand and thanked him and went back to my seat. About ten minutes later, my client showed up. We ordered a drink and started to talk business. A couple of minutes later, I felt a tap on my shoulder. It was Bill ...
