If you use the first option just suggested I would advise to utilize frame labels so that when you want to add or take frames/pages to or from your site you won’t have to go back and change every instance of frame number reference and your links will continue to work.

But absolutely just start basic and continue to add/polish. then it begins to get more and more complicated _cough_ I mean fun.

[quote=theclincher;2348717]Well, there are indeed many methods.

One way is using each frame as a page - just make your links/buttons trigger a gotoandstop(3) or gotoandstop(“page1”). You would put a layer on top of this to hold your navigation if you want.

Another is to design a custom sprite/movie clip and instantiate it with appropriate text and settings.

I don’t think you really need to find tutorials for this. Unless you want to build something quite involved like [mycokerewards.com](http://mycokerewards.com), making a simple flash website can be as easy as some frames, stops, and, if you want, some animation flourish.

What do you know? Are you more of a designer or a programmer?[/quote]
