I ran across a site called FillColors.com that is promoting the separation of style and layout in Flex applications.

The concept isn't new; CSS Zen Garden has been using a similar tactic for ages to generate buzz around CSS styling in HTML pages, but I think this could be a great way to derail the idea that all Flex applications have to have the same basic, default, out-of-the-box look and feel.

Fill Colors is also sponsoring a contest to encourage new entries. The winner will receive a license for Flex Builder 2.
