Dear Kirupa Users.
This one is long.
INTRO:
I have recently been asked to do a Flash Site for a gallery accross the world. They want me to created the bare bones of the site so that they may Upload content themselves to the site.
DESCRIPTION:
Here is the idea behind the NAVIGATION. each new artist is represented by a “STAR”. This STAR is placed randomly on the Flash MX movie. When one clicks on a STAR, the latter must load extra info from an uploaded file (such as an image and some text). FLASH must change the status of the STAR to “visited” as well, so that the user knows what he has looked at already.
On top of that, i don’t want to be adding the stars to the FLASH movie everytime they add an artist! so i want to know if it is possible for Flash to automatically add a STAR at a random position (non overlapping another) along with the info it must load. HOW THE HELL IS IT POSSIBLE.
IF ANYONE HAS ANY IDEAS, help!
if this is not clear enough, please contact me i can provide visual explanations if needed.
thank you so much or great actionscripters out there.
