Project Report: check out what is done!
Jan 19th
As to reward you for your patience and your interest to Fancy Flash CMS I decided to make up something like a quick report on what is done and what is in the process of development now. In such a way you can know better what to expect from Fancy and probably come up with some good ideas.
So, here is what is done:
- you can view images and videos, manipulate with them (maximize, minimize, drag-n-drop, save, print out) in full-screen mode, add to cart. See what the image gallery looks like now;
- the video gallery has sidebar navigation (move you mouse left and right);
- you can activate/deactivate these instruments and the shopping option from your admin panel;
- slider for the Instruments Panel. You can also hide them;
- music gallery: you can upload tracks, albums, listen to them and sell them from the site.
Don’t Strip While Snow Shoveling
Jan 18th
Forgive me my disappearance. I am extremely sorry for having left you guys with no information for this long, and, what is even worse, with no Flash CMS so far. The thing is that there was no chance for me to let you know anything on how the project is going, because I had to spend about 2 weeks in hospital with pneumonia.
I’ve used to think it was impossible to get anything like this if you hardly get out of your house, but I turned out to be wrong: snow shoveling kills
. Especially when you get hot, take off your jacket, and later sit down to rest. So don’t you dare to follow my experience!
I felt very lousy on Christmas and spent the New Year in hospital, but now I’m fine and eager to continue working on Fancy CMS. Unfortunately, the release needs to be delayed once more, but I hope this will be the last delay. I need to look through everything once more to estimate how much time is needed to finish, so stay it touch!
Oh, yes: Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!
The release is being delayed: Good or Bad?
Dec 18th
Thank you for all your comments. We are very proud to hear that our Flash CMS Platform is that much awaited, and at the same time we feel really uncomfortable for making you wait.
We regret to inform you that it was decided to delay the release date a bit. It’s not about the software is not ready yet, or has some major bugs. Everything is fine and works just as good as expected! We just want to spend time optimizing our shopping cart and reworking the whole Ecommerce module.
We are very sorry for making you wait but FancyCMS is an open source project, and we really want developers to have a fun time dealing with it. That is why our beloved platform needs to be released in its best shape!
The release date is 5th of January! Hope you’re even more excited now! Sincere apologies to everyone involved.
Flash CMS: the future is about Flash
Dec 14th
It is useless to reject a great meaning of Internet today. In is not just a temporary phenomenon, it has already become a natural part of our life. As the time spins, our life is migrating online, and nobody can predict what will the final point of this process be. Today Internet is not only about business, it is where people socialize, rest, study. It’s not a tool anymore, but a place.
One of the main incarnations of some-one’s online presence is a website, no matter what is the purpose it was created for. But still a creation of website remains to be a prerogative of specially-educated people, and is a kind of a rocket science for majority. People know that developing a website is about coding, and coding is a magic spell for most of them.This is the reason why developers now put so much effort trying to erase this barrier, so that website set up and managing could be a process that can be performed by any human at any moment of time. This is what the main idea of the CMS is.
CMS are a bridge between people and their websites, they allow to set up and manage websites without any specific knowledge. In fact, they work like a magic wand: you do not need to study magic of coding, memorize secret spells (read tags), all you need to do is to wave with your wand and say “I want a website!“…. and here it comes.

Dec 2nd
Flash technology opens new boundaries in website design. Everything we could not even think about has become possible. The designer of a website is not anymore restricted by anything, and now he can bring even his craziest ideas to life.

Now this problem is almost solved, and Fancy CMS is about to say the last word in this discussion. Everything our team is working at is devoted to make flash website be easy to edit for its owner and to index by search engines.
We work on a CMS that will make editing of any flash website easy as 1-2-3 even for those who are new to this and know nothing about web development or Flash. No matter how crazy the design is, you can always keep your website updated and interactive.
Fancy CMS release date is very close, but to keep you amused while waiting, we have made a collection of beautiful and unusual flash websites. Take a look at it to inspire your imagination!

Flash CMS overview
Nov 12th
Despite a great variety of Flash CMS presented today, it still remains to be an unsolved problem. The needs today are high, and a worthy Flash CMS is expected to combine functionality and simplicity, flexibility and light weight. And it is not even a question of money: even among commercial content management systems it turns out to be hard to find a CMS that would suit the needs completely. In fact, it would be true to say that each of the CMS presented today is aimed to have one or two well-developed distinctive features. For instance, Flash Moto CMS is devoted to flexibility in design, Turtlebite Flash CMS Framework – to SEO, Flash Mint has 4 types of CMS, and each one is great for a certain type of websites. They all are one-sided, and very often good functionality turns out to be a privilege for professional developers.
Fancy Flash team has done a research on what features a CMS must posses to be good for developers and non-developers at the same time. When working on the CMS we present to you, we tried to embed as many features as possible into an intuitive interface.
One more goal we were aiming towards was to make the functions of Fancy Flash CMS be not limited to simple content editing. Fancy Flash CMS provides a wide range of possibilities, available directly from admin panel, and does not demand any technical knowledge or specific software.
