Ruin effect

Hi,
Anyone have an example of ruin image, ruined object effect.
What i mean is:
It's like a picture became thounsands of pixel, dots flyout or fall down....
Thank you,

unfortunately flash has no method to detect pixel colour values : ( using PHP (or something like that :b ) you could step through an image and return a (relatively large) array of pixel values, and then generate with the drawing API a series of image 'particles'. Then it would be a simple matter of using some sort of particle explosion algorithm to handle moving them all. (there are some good ones at http://www.robertpenner.com/ to give you a head start)

I think there have been some posts on bit-101 and a few other boards about doing this -- but I'm hoping one of the gurus or self-denying gurus that has done a lot of this sort of thing can come on and give you more specific help : )
