Hi all,

I’m working on an effect in Flash MX to animate a fixed image with falling cherry blossoms. I eventually want to use this and a couple other effects in a website to set the mood for different pages, but right now I’m just playing to see if I can do it.

I started learning flash about a week ago, so I don’t know much about actions to make the effect “automated” or random like in the falling snow tutorial. Each of the 5 pedals has its own motion guide, so if you follow them for a while you can see the pattern.

There weren’t any effects like this that I could find online, so I thought I’d post it and see what people thought.

Thanks,
