I’m wondering how I can dynamically generate a swf file w/ AS 3

Basically, I’m providing my users w/ an image editor where they can load a selected image into a scroll pane and then using various tools such as a pencil tool, eraser and so on, draw on top of the image and drag various movieclips on top of the image.

Once done, I want the changes to be saved. This save action generates a swf file containing the image w/ the modifications they have made…

Make sense?

Thanks in advance…

PS…just ran into some documentation about a Flex SDK that comes w/ a command line compiler to create swf files on the fly? Never used Flex before…
