This site is the best for creating different flash elements and just learning to use macromedia flash in general. Click on the link below and you will be taken to step by step tutorials for many different flash objects.
Wow that site is pretty cool, I didnt expect it to have so much tutorials, at first I thought it would be one of those sites were you just read and no pictures, but it turns out they are videos and cover plenty of things in flash and actionscript. Thanks, nice find.
Looks great. I'd have to do the flash tutorial on one computer as i do it on the other because I'd get tired of pausing and rewinding. Hopefully I'd go fast enough to go with the tutorial. I've always wanted to learn flash and I guess this would be the way to do it. Site looks good and is organized itself... bookmarked.
Great site, very good tutorials. Thanks owbussey, great find. I have been using flash for a while and have searched the net for tutorials but this site is simply great. I recommend everyone interested in learning flash to visit this site.
Ah thank you so much, i often design things in Flash and have these ideas that I wasn't too sure how to create with actionscript, but then I read this topic and i'm extremely happy! Thank you so much. It will make animating with flash alot simplier and easier.
Hi. Basically, the MovieClip(root) thing is dodgy at the best of times. Besides - it's not
recommended to use root at all. In fact, it's highly discouraged. I've seen plenty of posts
about this, but for the life of me, I can't find anything about what else I should use. What
alternative should I be using to access properties/mc's/etc from the root/parent time lines??
edit:Cleanup/spelling fixes, etc.....
Its weird but sometimes when you hit the forums or roster button on my flash banner it will load:
www.childrenofconan.trap17.com/index.html instead of what its suppost to. It works fine, but if you
mess around and click the buttons for a little bit you will notice this happening. This is a problem
because people visiting the site will sometimes click the button once and be like oh I guess the
link is broken and never come back, if anyone has a solution to what could be the problem it would
be awesome. This is one of my first custom flash banners and im just confused what....
Hi Guys, I am trying to make a flash based web site. The idea is to have a flv video streaming
which has people moving around and the people need to be clickable objects. I tried tracing the
video by importing the flv to the flash time line and creating a button that follows a person in
each frame. I then remove the flv video from the timeline and stream it using actionscript. This
leads to synchronization issues. Does anyone know if this combination of swf and flv has ever been
implemented? If so could you please refer me to the source or post a link to an example, i....
I don't know if this is the right section, but does anyone know how to do flash coding and/or
know a good site to learn it from? I'm trying to make a game like Naruto-Arena . One of my
friends told me it was made using flash coding and thats why I'm trying to learn it.....
Movie Clip 1.Create a Movie Clip and draw a Rectangle or your design in the Movie Clip. 2.Come Back
to Scene 1. 3.Select the Movie Clip and set them instance name = “movie”. 4.Select the first Frame.

3; } if (Key.isDown(Key.LEFT)) { setDirection(1);
_root.movie._x -= 3; } if (Key.isDown(Key.DOWN)) { ....
This is a cool little idea I ve bee thinking about lately. I am curious as to how I would make a
webpage loader in an .exe form. Ex: many RPG games have a launcher program, that shows you the
current updates and news, and checks for new updates. This thing usually shows a webpage to show the
news and updates right? I was wondering how I would create one of those (What language?), or if I
could possibly get a pre-made one where I can just change the code or the page it loads in its
program frame. I really hope this makes sense. If not, I can try and make more sense of ....
I was informed that in web programing Flash is more afster then Java applets or animated images. So
that I am thinking about Flash. Now I know that there are many tutorial are available in www. Now
can any body help me from where I should start. However I have some question on my mind Is it
difficult to learn? What tools do I need to install? Can you recomended any tutorial? And
finally my question is why flash is so famous, is it because of it is faster or have there any other
reason?....
Can anyone recommend a book or online guide to flash. i am currently designing a new website, and
with it, i would like to add flash and all that jazz (kinda like this website ). i want to get an
good understanding of flash and other things like flash so i can create and design flash based
websites.....
As I started to learn Java, I came across a tutorial for making Java applets. As I read on, I found
some similarities between Java applets and Flash movies. Right when I saw the source code for a
checkerboard picture made in Java, I said to myself, Flash beats Java applets big time! It also
took a while to load such a small applet when in Flash it instantly loaded. In my opinion, I think
flash beats Java applets when it comes to convenience, appearance, load time, animation, and more
(except AJAX). Here are two articles, first supporting java applets and the other ....
QUOTE Hi In this tutorial I am going to show you how to make a ball move around the screen
realistically and if the ball hits a side of the stage it will bounce. Background colour white.
550x400 50 fps The first thing you need to do is draw a circle on the stage (50x50) then select it
and press F8. (You may want to put a line or something through the ball so that you can see it
rotate). Set it as a MovieClip. Now double click on the circle to edit it, position the ball to be
in the very center. Now go to the main screen and click on the first frame and open the ....

Can anyone help me to start cgiemail on the ej.am server. I dont know where to go. Do you have to
have software? I was looking at the site that they give us on the server and it says that I download
the software and use the unix commands to install iit on the server. it also wanted to see if my
server had the cgi function enabled. What i am trying to do is to allow people to email me from my
website without the mailto: function. That is a pain and requires an internet account on their
computer.....
Ok i was told that I can dynamically upload my pictures using flickrviewer. I want to upload them
to simpleviewer or a flash movie like simpleviewer. Right now what I do is use Picassa2 and make a
flash movie with my pictures everytime i add new pictures. That is kind of a pain. I wanted to see
if there was any way to dynamically insert them into the flash movie or if anyone knew how to use
flickrview. I can't get it to work. here are the links to simpleviewer link and flcikrviewer
site and flickr site . ....
In the past year or two iternet explorer and other browsers have updated their coding platforms.
The bad thing is that if you have any flash objects at all within your web page you have to hit the
space bar or click on the flash object to activate it. Once you activate it, you then can interact
with the object or the object will then play on the website. I dont like how you have to activate
the flash player first to interact with it. here is the code to prevent that. Believe me people
notice how much better the site is after you do this. put <script type="text/java....
I am very interested in learning how to create or start my own tutorial submitt site. What do I
need to learn ? What do I need to have. Is there a script that can be made up or a software? What
I would like to do is start my own tutorial submit site. something similar to good-tutorials and or
pixel2life except those sites are really big and cover many tutoriasl for many different programs.
Id like to just cover tutorials for maybe a total of 3 to 4 different programs. Im sure I need
hosting a domain a site and some good forums to get something good going. But t....
I need a tiny bit of help with some flash files. I have taken up a project in php that I did not
expect would involve any flash editing, but I am dealing with already existing .swf files that make
calls to various php files. Now, here's the situation: I don't have the .fla files, only
.swf. So I need someone who has access to a flash decompiler who can possibly help me out. After
decompiling the files, I require that all the links/calls to php files, which are made using
relative paths/addresses, be changed to absolute paths, like change something.php to www.som....
Step 1- Make the Animation Get your animation ready. Make sure not to use any Movie Clips with self
contained animation for it will be lost in the conversion to an animated gif. Step 2- Publish
Settings Now that you have your animation you need to go to Publish Settings under File. Now
uncheck all of the boxes except for gif. This will not effect you if you usually preview your movies
by the Test Movie feature. If you do use Publish to preview your movies, simply recheck the .swf box
after this tutorial. Now click the only remaining Gif tab at the top of the box. N....
Hey everyone, I began making my website with Firworks, and Dreamweaver. But I really want to know
how to make a website with Flash. I understand with this program you make 'movies'. I have
done some tutorials too, and I get that. But what I want to know is, if the content in the different
pages (like home, contact, links etc.) have to be one movie? Or do you use other programs. Like
this site below, it's a beautiful site of the Luny Tunes (reggeaton music artistgroup): Luny
Tunes But is the whole site a 'Movie', or is there some HTML in it as w....
On Christmas, a relative of mine purchased Studio 8 from Macromedia, which is now Adobe. However
when first running Flash 8, I was very confused...for all people who have ever used Flash, how do
you make the images move? I tried following the tutorial, and tried "adding a motion tween", however
I can't get it to work... /sad.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='sad.gif' />
Thanks in advance! Stephen....
