    Awesome thats what i need in my games 2D & 3D effects. Mostly i like its “Chapter 6: Using 3D Visual Techniques” & “Chapter 7: 2D Graphics with Surfaces” it contains a huge list of learning material with these topics.

    It helps me to develop some good apps also with some 3D effects i’m searching alot but not able to find some good resources. So i wish to have it !!!
    Cheers :)

    Chapter about 2D graphics and surfaces would give me more knowledge to make my ideas working in a beautiful way and make more users enjoy whole Android experience.. ;)

    Definitely both Chapter 7-2D Graphics on Surfaces and Chapter 9-Practicing Good Practice and Style, but hey! after reading carefully the sample chapter, will read the book cover-to-cover!!! author style is fresh and dynamic, step by step development of topics is great (specially for newbies) and explanation on theoretic stuff is simple and clear, cool!!!

    I really like the idea of adding transitions to my interface by using animations. Chapter 2-5 would help me out with that. Chapter 8 also seems very interesting as I have always wanted to learn more about live wallpapers in android. In all, every chapter seems to have very, very useful information and would be a great read for any beginner android developer. I would really enjoy to have this book!

  • Michael Youngblood

    I am interested in this book to learn how to create the animations that I am not used to thinking about being a web designer. Android has a lot more capabilities then just a webpage, I would like to tap into that.
