They make sure to make the finished product something I can skin and I usually go back and forth it get it looking the way I want. If you haven't checked out Ely Greenfield's Display Shelf Component, that's a pretty good representation of what I get from the programmers (itemRender, styling, skinning capabilites included). http://www.quietlyscheming.com/blog/components/tutorial-displayshelf-component/ Also, Jesse Warden has an article about integrating a Flash interface into Flex 2: http://webddj.sys-con.com/read/329616.htm That might help define a workflow for the other scenario you mentioned.

I was just wondering, the work flow you describe seems to be for the 'out-of-the-box' components ( and that's cool ). Have you had any experience with work flows for designing custom Flex components? Say, putting something together with the Flash9 IDE and bringing it into Flex, or even just a pretty heavy customization of an existing Flex component. Would be super interested to hear about how it went if you have. Great site. Keep up the fantastic work. Cheers, Marcus. Nice post with some great tips.
