"Skinning Spark Components in Flex Applications" - by jimpete on 15-MAY-2011
Reviewer Rating:
Great video but Skinning a Simple Compoent at 11:21/16:18 into the video we get Studio discussions instead of the video sound track.
All the videos climax to skinning our first component and we get the wrong sound track.

"Good content but bad editing" - by gazmc on 19-APR-2011
Reviewer Rating:
This is good content on a difficult topic, but in the critical section "Skinning a Simple Component" around 14:00 the audio completely separates from the video. You even get audio of the guys talking thinking they are off air, and then you get audio from the beginning of the clip while the video just keeps rolling !
