[osflash] 3D card flip effect.

[Glen Pike]

Hi,

    Have a look at Five3D for this:
   
    http://five3d.mathieu-badimon.com/

    I have been playing with it for the last week and it is nice and 
simple to use.

    If you download the latest package and look at the example in there 
- it has a plane that is manipulated in 3D.  Then look at the Earth Cube 
example which is an older codebase, but gives you an idea of how you 
attach a bitmap to a plane.

    I like this package - simple to use and nice if you don't want full 
on phong shading, etc.
