Many thanks for all the help in the past. I have got my first site on the web and wondered if you would take a look? it didn’t take long to make and is my very first site. I have been learning flash for a couple of months now and I would love your feedback. It’s nothing special and only uses basic stuff. The good thing is that there is are no pop ups and the only thing you have to ignore is the ugly advert that they have placed over the top of the flash site. Just an experimental site, that’s all. Many thanks.
yes i drew them. using line and fill. If you visit the site again, you will notice that there is an email link. if you write to me there, I will send you a step by step list of instructions on how to do it. i have figured a way out and it aint as difficult as it looks. or write to me using my email for this forum which is:
you cant really call “trace bitmap” to draw now can you ?
other than that, not the worst first-flash-site i’v seen.
they’r usually a lot more blinky and noisily than this.
In the kirupa tutorial, he uses a cartoon but I used a downloaded photo which was put into photoshop and simplified using posterize.
It’s easy to do but the effect is a bit cleaner than trace bit map.
MLK, you are correct about the interactivity but I have only had flash for a couple of months and have used all the things I have learned up to this point. I try and learn all the time and in about six months I hope to be fairly ok with flash.
you cant really call “downloading a photo, then posterize it
in photoshop” to draw now can you ?

you seem to be having a problem understanding what i did. each line and shape is done by hand using the photograph as reference. After all, it would be difficult to illustrate from memory. please refer to the earlier tutorial links and you will see what I have done.
divtag, i think you should stop. If you don’t have anything intelligent to say, don’t say anything.
brintonwhite, Your site looks a bit too plain. You should maybe add some color and ‘flash it up’ a little. Maybe you could try to improve your current design. I love the pic you have drawn. Looks very good.
well… jawn… … i probably shouldnt be posting
this reply either… but “repulsive and not intelligent ??”
post your “drawings” in some of the art-forums
around then. You will get the same reaction. i simply told
you to be careful of what you clame to be “drawing”.
if you put a piece of thin paper over an image, and simply
trace the image, … … is that to draw ?..
