Nick Haley and the iPod Touch Ad
Nick Haley a young English guy got lucky showing his skills and uploading a great Video to Youtube. Apple contacted the young guy, but Nick Haley was a little skeptic about this approach.
The New York Times says:
“I was sitting on the bus and I got this e-mail on my phone,” The message said, “We represent Apple and we’ve seen what you have produced and we’d like a chat with you,” Mr. Haley recalled, adding: “This seemed ridiculous and far-fetched. My initial reaction was, someone wanted to steal it.”
A television commercial for the new iPod from Apple Touch, scheduled to begin running on Sunday, 10-28 is being created by the longtime Apple agency, TBWA / Chiat / Day. It is based on a commercial that an 18-year-old English student and Apple devotee named Nick Haley, who says he got his first Mac when he was 3, created on his own one day last month.
The advertisement in question combines passages of the iPod Touch Guided Tour with a catchy soundtrack -Music Is My Hot, Hot Sex (CCS) - The best thing is that Nick Haley was invited to travel to California to take part in the remake of the Ad by the advertising agency.
This is the original video by Nick Haley.

Flash Decompiler Trillix for Mac 3.0
Flash Decompiler Trillix by Eltima its a simple yet powerful software for all the flash artists out there. I am a Graphic Designer and find this software very handy and a must have if you use Flash intensively.
Lets check out what this little software can do to our daily lives.
Flash Decompiler Trillix converts Adobe Flash SWF files back into FLA format which can easily be edited in native Flash environment. Every group of objects such as morphs, shapes, texts, fonts, motions, sounds, ActionScripts, etc. could be placed in separate FLA library groups, which makes using and working with the resulting FLA file much easier.
Moreover, since Trillix version, in addition to SWF to FLA conversion, Flash Decompiler can extract all objects (images, sounds, video, shapes, text, morphs, ActionScripts, etc) used in SWF files into various file formats just in several clicks.
Additionally, you may customize FLA file workspace by enabling/disabling grids, rulers; specifying grid accuracy and so on. Every morph or shape can be placed on different layers to make sure that masks layers are working properly. Flash Decompiler Trillix is the only Mac OS tool to export the whole SWF movie in FLA format that supports Flash MX and ActionScript 2.0.
This is the description from Eltima´s page. But is it any good?
