Cedar Flash Portfolio Template + Source Code
The Cedar site was designed to be used as a website for a design agency or a personal portfolio site.
It contains everything you need to have a complete portfolio site up quickly with no Flash or programming knowledge required.
Easily customize every aspect of the site to match your brand - you can add your own logo and change all the colors, text, button names, etc.
Everything is customized through an external XML file so you don't even need to own Flash.
View demos one and two above to see its features. Both demos are using the exact same template, just with different settings applied to demonstrate the extent of the customization options.
The Cedar download comes with everything you see in both demos. All source files are included – including all FLA's and ActionScript classes. Please note that no support is provided for any source code customizations.

Accessible to All Users on All Devices
Users visiting a Warm Forest site on an iPhone/iPad/iPod touch are automatically redirected to a simplified non-Flash mobile version of the site which is customizable. Users on other mobile devices and users who do not have the Flash plugin installed will see alternate content on the homepage urging them to upgrade their Flash Player as well as providing a link to the non-Flash mobile version of the site. This ensures your content is accessible to all users on all devices. Everything is even W3C valid XHTML 1.0.

The above is showing how a Warm Forest site looks on my iPhone - if you have an iPhone browse to any of the Warm Forest demos to check out a live version. All Warm Forest sites now have this functionality.
