I just got a chance to read through Andrew Guldman’s post on Guidelines for Flash application development over at the Flash Developer Center.

In the article, he breaks down the techniques that Fluid used to build RbkCustom. If you have a chance and you’re into following best practices, I’d recommend checking it out. My personal favorite was his page on following the rules of code; it’s most definitely worth a read and possibly a bookmark.

There was a somewhat similar article posted to Kirupa not too long ago, that shows the structure of a Flash site, which dynamically creates buttons from XML, CSS, and PNG files.
