There are several directions in which this tutorial can be extended. Most importantly:

• Arbitrary rotations of bitmaps with distortion for perspective. For example, our 3D Cube Menu tutorial could be enhanced by the addition of perspective. See our tutorial:
  'Cube in Bloom: Distorting Images in ActionScript 3'
  for that.
• Encapsulating the code of the applet presented in this tutorial in a custom AS3 class. That would make it easier to use and customize the applet. This is done our tutorial:
  'Loading Images and Spinning Them in 3D in Terms of AS3 Custom Classes - Take 2'
  in Bridging the Gap section.
• You can find a simpler AS3 class-based version in the tutorial:
  Flipping a Card Applet in Terms of ActionScript 3 Custom Classes - Take 1
  also in Bridging the Gap section.
