What I wanna do is, if I’m dragging 1 movie clip, how do I make that other one drag at the same time? And I’m also aligning these MC’s so that they drag in the same X and Y position.
- Possible?? -
If your draggin movieClip is called ‘dog’ then put these actions on movieClip number two:
onClipEvent(enterFrame){
_x=dog._x;
_y=dog._y;
}
If you don’t want both movieClips in the same place, then add or subtract to dog._x or dog._y.
That’ll do it.
Ok, I tried it, the “dog #1” drags, and the “dog # 2” doesn’t follow.
Oops, you have to put ‘_root.dog2._x’ etc. Sorry, here’s a crude fla for you to experiment with…
Thanks, it works pefectly now!!! Kudos! Wow you seem to know a loooot about flash ever since you helped me with that popup thingy. Do you have your own website?
Yeah, I actually have a bunch of websites. One of my favorite that I started on about a month ago is Freddythunder.com . A lot of it still isn’t done, like only three links on the side work; I’ve put too much time in the header and the intro, my client’s sites and these footers!! I can’t seem to stop making footers!! I hope they have another footer contest so I can enter this one!! I just made it today; it’ll record the high score everytime it’s beaten. I like it!!
Awesome site freddythunder!!! Loved that intro. You’re so lucky to get a .com site…I’m forced to use free ones, not geocities or netfirms, but I found like one of the best ones that are free. Free guestbook, chatrooms, counters, and forums coming soon. Not that I’m gonna use those - cause I’m making a 100% flash site.
- It’s the fact that I’m only 13 that pisses me off, cause I have to ask people for flash help, and that I cant get a .com site, well I can, but I dont wanna use my money just yet. -
My stupid footer here doesnt have much kool action script to it, but I like the fact that it contains my own art, which I think is cool.
Same prob here, sharif, I’m 13 as well and don’t have the money to buy a domain. So i have to make do with stupid stuff like tripod or brinkster. ARRGH!
Getting a dot com is getting cheaper all the time. Then you don’t have to worry about your host adding ads and popups to your site.
You can still have counters, guestbooks, forums, anything you want using PHP or ASP. I use PHP a lot now - it works pretty well!
Here’s the best part - you’re learning all this stuff when your 13!! I wish I started doing it then - I know I’d be making a lot more money than I am now!! I freelance websites through my own business, but there’s so much more that I can learn; I just hope I don’t get too old!!
How old are you Freddy ? I’m 14 
14 huh…I’m frickin’ 27!! (I know, could be older).
27 ain’t old =). EG’s about the same age as you, 25 I think.
Oh by the way, your footer should be [swf=… instead of [url=…
Thank you!! I’ve been searching everywhere for that stupid vb code!! I erased the whole thing last night!
Yeah, I know 27 isn’t that old, but my back hurts and I’m tired…oh well, at least I can still complain!!
Your "s are placed wrong. Replace it with this:
[swf=“http://www.freddythunder.com/test/cursorfooter.swf width=300 height=60”][**/swf]
If you need more info, run a search for “Adding Flash Footers” 
Thank you!! I’m gonna put in a keyword so I can find this thread again when I erase that code. ASPARAGAS!!
I tryed searching for
footer code
code for footer
footer help
code vb footer
…nothing.
Thanks again Voetsjoeba!!
Here’s the page you should’ve found

Yeah, ur right Freddy, it’s cool that I’m only 13, cause I get to learn a lot early. But I don’t wanna become a flash hero, or some kinda guru…like u. I just wanna have a site (which I’m creating) that people can look at and say, “whoa, thats ****ing awesome”, kinda like what people say to 2Advanced. I mean, sites with cool effects, are what people like to see, not sites that have the nav bar all over the page, or sites with effects such as all text fade ins/outs.
-
By the way, the free web hosting, which I wont say what until I have my site out, has no popups or banner ads. Its completely free. Plus you get to pick like 100 templates - which I will never do - cause i’ll disgrace myself and say thats not my work over and over. -
-
Question: Should I make an intro…before or after I make my site? -
<<-- is not a guru - I just know some stuff…
You won’t tell me who this free host is? That’s okay I guess. I’m just curious on who pays for it - someone has to somewhere. That’s why most of those free ones have popup madness!! I’d read anything that has an ‘accept’ button very carefully…actually, you’re only 13 and can’t hold you to that anyway…go nuts!!
Answer: I usually do the intro first beacuse the site it leads to usually isn’t as extravagant. If you put your site up first, you’re going to tell people about it right away (who wouldn’t!) That could mean a lot of people never seeing your intro - and never coming back to your site because it didn’t have enough “that’s f’n awesome”-ness to it…Freddythunder.com’s intro I actually did at the same time as the site itself (well, what’s done in it, that is…)
Heh! Hope this free web host doesnt start charging or something, lol.
I dont wanna use geocities - that no good piece of sht webhosting with a fcking popup ad on the top right corner!!! …[Breathe]… -
Anyways, this free thing is DA BOMB. It has possibly everything you need :
[list]
[]100 MB Monthly Transfer! (…drools…)
[]40 MB Webspace
[]Everything Completely Free
[]Choice of a buttload of templates (some containing html + flash)
[]Easy Upload
[]No FTP Prog Needed
[]Beginner or Advance User Choices
[]Free Counter
[]Free Chatrooms
[]Free Photo Gallery
[]Free Guestbook
[]Free Form Fillouts!!!
[]Free Forums…Coming soon (Fingers Crossed)
[]Page Editors…Very Easy To Use…For Idiots Like Me
[]And the best part is…The dmn thing is so organized (folders, subdirectories, etc.)
[/list]
Bad Things:
[list]
[*]Only 1 File uploading at a time (who cares if you are making a flash site which is only 1 file!)
[/list]
Oh yea, about the intro, I’m thinking I should finish the site first 'cause then all the pages are off my mind, and then make the intro. But I wont release the site until both the site and intro are completed, this way people get to see the intro, at the same time, they dont have to wait for the site!
Cool - good luck with your hosting situation!!
