CANCELLED!!! - Flash on the Beach Miami

Flash on the Beach Miami is cancelled
This would have been my first year to have a chance to go and I’m disappointed.
From their site: “It is with huge regret that we have taken the decision to cancel FOTB Miami. Our intention was to take FOTB with its awesome speaker line up, fantastic networking opportunities and of course terrific FOTB vibe to the USA, but low registration numbers have meant that we would not be able to deliver the high calibre event that Flash on the Beach has become well known for.”

Use BitWise Operators in Flash to Turn the Output of getPixel() to a String
ActionScript, Flash March 20th, 2008
I’ve been working on a pixel color capture Flash Movie and I needed some help understanding how to work with the value that the getPixel() function returned. I found a great explanation over at Flash-Creations under the Operators section.
| nRed = nColor >> 16; | Given an RGB color nColor, pull the red part into variable nRed. How? Colors are specified by 3 groups of 2 hex digits each:RRGGBB. Each hex digit is 4 bits, so each color is specified by 8 bits: rrrrrrrrggggggggbbbbbbbb. The “>>” operator shifts bits to the right by the amount specified. So to get the red part (leftmost group of 8 bits), you simply shift all the bits to the right 16 slots (the lower part, the G and B colors, are discarded during the shift). |
Also, to clarify the process, here is some sample code from this tutorial at:
———————————————————————————
tr = (tmpC >> 16);
tg = (tmpC >> 8 ^ tr << 8);
tb = (tmpC ^ (tr << 16 | tg << 8));
———————————————————————————
You’ll notice that this examples uses another operator (^), the bitswise XOR operator to get the difference of two binary elements. Great example in livedocs:
Example
The following example uses the bitwise XOR operator on the decimals 15 and 9, and assigns the result to the variable x:
// 15 decimal = 1111 binary
// 9 decimal = 1001 binary
var x:Number = 15 ^ 9;
trace(x);
// 1111 ^ 1001 = 0110
// returns 6 decimal (0110 binary)
