Hey everyone,  
This is the forum where you can submit and view entries for the FXpression 05 Contest. If you have any questions, feel free to post here and I’ll try answer them.

**In a Nutshell**  
Basically, you have to create some cool special effects that will, eventually, replace the random circle and dot animations you see throughout the site. In order to help you to focus on creating the effect as opposed to worrying about unnecessary details with the layout, we have provided you with an FLA that you can simply edit and upload to this forum once finished: [**[u]http://www.kirupa.com/lab/contest.zip[/u]**](http://www.kirupa.com/lab/contest.zip).

**Uploading**  
When you are uploading a file, please create a New thread for each entry you upload and use a creative title. Both the new thread and a creative title would ensure that your entry isn’t accidentally overlooked when I and the judges comb through to find the best entries =)

More information can be found here: [**[u]http://www.kirupa.com/lab/fxpression.htm[/u]**](http://www.kirupa.com/lab/fxpression.htm)

Make sure to **attach** both your SWF and FLA to the forum. Please don’t host them on your own site or domain, because attaching them here ensures that your animations stay viewable all the time.

Good luck and have fun!

Cheers!
