Today Forum Nokia posted an excellent technical whitepaper for Flash Lite developers that discusses and provides code examples for creating screen savers and wallpapers for supported Nokia handsets.  The zip file contains a 29 page PDF and 3 examples including the source and completed files (.fla, .as and .swf).

From the whitepaper, "In addition to being an effective platform for casual games and data driven applications, Adobe Flash Lite for Nokia devices supports compelling personalization content like animated dynamic screen savers and wallpapers. The Flash Lite platform brings to Nokia devices a sophisticated animation engine that supports a mix of vector and bitmap animation in screen saver/wallpaper content. Furthermore, Flash Lite screen saver/wallpaper applications can execute ActionScript to dynamically adjust the visual content of the animation depending on the date or the time of day, or completely randomly, enabling entertaining content that is dynamic and ever changing.

This document explores the different features of Flash Lite 2.0 for creating dynamic screen saver and wallpaper animation. Some of the concepts you will learn include using ActionScript to adjust the visual content to fit the stage, and creating visual interest with randomness and the application of a dynamic mask."

Kudos to Hayden Porter (author of the whitepaper) for taking the time to share his knowledge and tips with the broader community.  Hayden has been involved with Flash Lite for a few years and it's great to see developers like him get this type of exposure.
