Announcing the Great Rainbow Live Flash CMS Tutorial Competition!

WEBWIRE – Friday, July 10, 2009

Code and Visual has 5 free Rainbow Live licences to give away to the 5 best Rainbow Live tutorial entries. For a limited time you can trial a fully functional installation of Rainbow Live on any server you choose by using the Domain Key “tutorialcompetition”. This Domain Key will remain valid for the duration of the competition.

Rainbow Live fills the niche between complete Flash CMS solution and XML Editor. Rainbow was built specifically to enable Flash developers to continue building XML based Flash files the way they usually do, while providing important CMS functionality out of the box - with no changes needed.
