Kalin Ringkvist
Application-level Flash ActionScripting
Flash Development - KalinFlash.com, Seattle WA
Professional Work:
I was responsible for the majority of the flash work in the following examples:
WetPaint Content Modules These are five "content modules" I built for the WetPaint wiki network that display site additions like new threads and members.
What's it Worth? If you live in King County or Snohomish County Washington, then you can enter the purchase price of your home and the year that you purchased it and this small app will approximate it's current value and show a custom graph of the price increase.
Plat Map - I built a reusable system of real estate maps for a local realitor. This is just one example. I made half a dozen of them, which you can find if you explore his website. After making the first map, I was able to create new maps within just a couple hours each.

Personal work:
I did these projects for fun and was responsible for any and all work, including any backend, or graphical content:
Axis and Allies The classic WWII board game in flash.
Random Effect Classes A component I developed for Flash 7 and 8 which randomizes any MovieClip in your library in a multitude of different ways.
Kalin's Battle Grid A two-player chess-like board game that I invented with some role-playing elements, and a myriad of options and different ways to play.
Dirty Marbles This is a board game that is basically a rip-off of pachisi. (Par-cheeze-e). This was the first real project that I ever created in Flash, back in 2003.
(Do a Google search for 'Battle Grid' or 'Dirty Marbles' to see the multitude of websites that have stolen and re-posted these games.)
Advertisements These are a series of small square banner ads, advertizing some of my own projects.
Simpsons Alarm Clock An Alarm clock that plays Simpsons quotes.

Non-Flash Stuff
My focus now is almost entirely on Flash ActionScripting, but here are a few things I've done outside of Flash over the years.
Bad Kitty A joke poster I made in PhotoShop for a coworker whose cat bit her hand.
Disc Golf Database An Access VBA database with data entry system. Big and complex, but not complete.
Java/Visual Basic Programming Examples - These are some simple programs I did for school in 2004.
KalinBooks.com This is the website that features all of the books and stories that I write.

Crappy Stuff
This is stuff I did when first getting into flash... a long time ago.
Dynamic Link Menu Reads and displays a set of links from text files.
Dynamic Slideshow A slideshow that runs off a simple text file to dynamically load images.
Please Hire Me This was the cheezy intro for my old portfolio website, a long time ago.
Tour My Home A simple graphical tour of my apartment. This would have been a cool idea for a business to show the inside of their store, but it looks pretty terrible showing the inside of my old apartment.
SPAM! An educational history of SPAM lunch meat. This is the first thing I ever did in Flash. I'm told that "it has character because it's so awful ".
Village Inn Opener This is the front page animation I made for The Village Inn Pub and Eatery. This is the ugliest and lamest thing I've ever made in Flash.
