I’ve finally found some time to spend on my ImageTip class (a class that adds tooltip style images to words in an AS3 TextField). Check out the demo here.

At this stage you can setup imagetips with either a set image source (url), or a comma separated tag list that will pull the most recent relevant image from flickr.

You can find the class files here, along with an example FLA. Additionally, you’ll need to download the as3flickrlib classes. You’ll also need to include your flickr API key and Secret. You can find these parameters in the FlickrTip class.

If you have any suggestions/requests, just leave a comment below. This is totally a work in progress so I’ll just adding to it when I get the time. I’ll be implementing more flickr options next (tags from a selected user/group), and hopefully YouTube/FLV integration after that. I’ll also add CSS parameters to style the links.

Enjoy…
