Thirty effects of backgrounds
Several modifiers.
Here’s the explanation of them:
Effect: movieClip that will be used in the end.
Direction: Director of effect.
Interval: interval of time in which the effect happen.
Slide: Displacement in pixels of the effect. If this value is omitted, it will take a random value between 05 and 10.
Alpha -: Percent fade that will be implemented in movieClip to each function call.
Rotation: Rotational speed of movieClip.
Inclination: Value of the inclination of movieClip. Use positive values to tilt to the right, negative to left, zero inclination to random field blank and not to use any inclination.
RandomColor: Sets the color will movieClip random. Note: Do not work with all movieClips.
SmoothMovement: Smooths the handling of movieClip.
zigzag: Defines whether the movieClip will have to zigzag motion. The parameters of this argument, are:
Field 1: Number of pixels that movieClip will go into effect in each call.
Field 2: Number of frames that movieClip tour before taking a direction opposite to the present.
zoomIO: Defines whether the movieClip will zoom in and zoom out. The parameters of this argument, are:
Field 1: Minimum size that movieClip reach.
Field 2: Maximum size that movieClip reach.
Field 3: Percentage of zoomIn or zoomOut that movieClip receive the end of each call.
In the file you’ll find an extra effect. The effect Blink.
The zigzag behavior, zoomIO and Blink, are methods of class MovieClipUpgrade and can be used in any movieClip.
Follow the example of use:
com.prototypes.MovieClipUpgrade import;
var mcUp: MovieClipUpgrade = new MovieClipUpgrade ();
Done that, you can use the methods of movieClip as any other. Ex:
Suppose there is a Stage in movieClip called mc, the use of methods would be as follows:
zigzag;
mc.zigZag (10,10,5);
zoomIO:
mc.zoomIO (50,100,5);
Blink:
mc.blink (1.10);
Thank you.

nice effects you have here..
but i can give you a suggestion : make the changes in the preview in real time. trace the changes with onChanged event handlers or just create an interval to check for changes. Because to click APPLY every time is a real pain
And not all buyers have the patience to click apply every time they want to see the effect updated .. so think about it 
also try to replace the text boxes with sliders or simple numeric stepper components
this will make your preview more easy to use and it will bring more focus on the effect itself
