My new portfolio site – williamdady.com

Over the last couple of weeks I have slowly been putting together my new portfolio site, williamdady.com, which has been long overdue. The site was developed in FlashDevelop and Flash CS4 using the PureMVC framework.
I had a very specific design goal from the beginning to maintain a modular structure, something that PureMVC was a big help at pulling off. Sections are segregated into their own SWF’s each with an accompanying background SWF which in-turn contains multiple background images.
The main shell, the top-most parent SWF, is responsible for the layout of the modules as well as controlling the navigation. I utilized BulkLoader in the shell to handle the loading of module and background SWF’s as a pair. I’ve used BulkLoader a few times now and I it’s a really handy tool which all AS3 devs should have in their library.
