Blur Effect in Flex 1.5

Those of you who have used Flash 8 or Flex 2 Alpha have seen the cool new effects that are possible. However, since Flex 1.5 was built for flash player 7 they are not natively available. I have created a number or wrapper swfs that allow the new flash 8 functions to be used in the current version of Flex. I have posted the Blur sample here for download and also will have ColorTransform, DropShadow, and Glow available within the IFBIN Flex By Example.

UPDATE: The source code for ColorTransform, DropShadow, and Glow is now available at IFBIN Flex By Example.

UPS Tracking via Yahoo Maps

UPDATE:
This sample has been chosen as example of the day at:
http://www.ifbin.com

Using the new Yahoo maps beta I created this application to track your UPS packages as they move about the U.S. Flex is using a web service call to access a ColdFusion cfc which is acting as a facade to fetch the UPS data via cfhttp. At this time Yahoo has not released a Flex 2 swc for it mapping beta so this application is a Flex 1.5 app. The source code is availabe in the Flex By Example section of IFBIN.com.
