well… it takes a lot of time to make a tutorial (if it’s gonna be a decent one) but as for soulty’s footer, i guess i could _try_ to explain it briefly.

AFAIK, he’s created the image first, then imported it to flash to make the ‘shimmer’.  
this effect involves creating and masking a vector shape… so he would have drawn his logo as a vector over the top of the image (probably in white).

then, he needs to mask the sections, and make a tween that will basically move along the vectors he drew, exposing a bit at a time… so it looks like a shimmer. There’s a tutorial that’s kinda the same idea on flashkit, i’ll see if i can find it…
