Playing with Pixel Bender
I've been sitting on a small collection of Pixel Bender filters for Flash for a while now... way too long really. The filters were made a long time ago and since then I've been playing with and improving the user interface in (rare) spare moments.
The UI will be familiar to you if you've played with my JPEGlitch experiments, if not most things have tool-tips to guide you... and if you see an icon, generally speaking, clicking it will do something 
At its core is a slightly modified version of the minimalcomps library from bit101, which has then been further extended to enable easy creation of parameter-based user interfaces (where a Parameter is an Observable object that has flexible value/range Mapping - inspired by the popforge library).
A handy new feature is parameter tweening - all the sliders can have animation turned on/off in their context menu (right-click). It's only a simple min-max tween that you can start and stop, but it's a quick way of seeing parameters in motion. Also, when not animating, double clicking on a slider will reset it to the default value.
I'll make the source (all the .as and .pbk) available soon. It needs a good tidy-up first, and a few comments probably wouldn't go amiss either. If there's sufficient interest I'll get around to putting it into a public source control of some sort (the Parameter/Snapshot UI framework would benefit most from this). Google code and github are the main contenders at the moment.
There are 4 effect and 6 colour-space filters available to fiddle with - there's a quick overview of the filters and UI below for those that need to know more. In the meantime, why not give them a go!
