in may 2002, keith peters (a.k.a. bit-101) suggested a contest on the we're here forums. the preface was simple: using only the drawing api in flash mx, and limited to 25 lines of code, create what you can. the following files are my submissions to that arena. you can also see the other submissions on the official site.

please be advised that these are not good examples of maintainable code, simply what can be done when you push the limits a bit. it was a beautiful contest and there were many great entries. enjoy.
