CommunicationComponents: modify source or rebuild from scratch?

CommunicationComponents: modify source or rebuild from scratch?

2004-02-25       - By EdW

 Back
I am trying to set up a FlashCom app to be just a bit more fancy than the
the basic drag-and-drop Flash MX 2004 CommunicationComponents.
Specifically, I would like to modify the "PeopleList " component to show an
avatar (icon) with each nick in the list, and likewise I would like to
modify the "chat " component to show the sender 's avatar with each new
message. The avatar for each user would be dynamically loaded (the first
time displayed) from the web server. For example if the user with nick
"Joe " comes into the room, the Flash client should load joe.jpg from the
web server, and display that image beside the nick "Joe " in the PeopleList
component. And if Joe types any message to the room, the Joe.jpg image
should also display with his message (to the left of his message) in the
Chat component.

Should I try to extend the Chat component, and the PeopleList component,
or should I design new components from scratch?

By the way, I am willing to pay someone for guidance if you think you can
guide me through this task as needed. You can email me directly if
interested in that. (I hope that is okay to post.)

And any free general guidance or advice on this mailing list is
appreciated. :-)

Thank you

Ed
