// Usage Example
//
// import com.terrypaton.effect.PixelateBitmap;
// 
// var myBitmapData:BitmapData = new myImage(320,240); // myImage is a bitmap in the library with Export for ActionScript set
// var myPixelatedBitmapData:BitmapData = new BitmapData(myBitmapData.width,myBitmapData.height);
// var myBitmap:Bitmap = new Bitmap(myPixelatedBitmapData);
// var pixelateBitmap:PixelateBitmap = new PixelateBitmap();
// pixelateBitmap.setup(myPixelatedBitmapData);
// 
// addChild(myBitmap);
// 
// addEventListener(Event.ENTER_FRAME, loop);
// function loop(event:Event):void {
// 	var amount:Number = 320 / mouseX;
// 	if (amount > 0) {
// 		pixelateBitmap.process(myBitmapData, amount);
// 	}
// }
