well JM , the mouse overs are nice, but not sure about the click state, why dont you keep it animated, instead of going static with the mouse down state. you can use the fla i provided and enter another frame label called “down” and put a animation on that, then on the mc



on(release)
gotoAndPlay("down");

thanks for the suggestion. i would really take it in mind. besides, i think that hanging around would expand my horizons of thinking :slight_smile:

a quick question… i have tried many times to design something on photoshop n import it onto flash… the quallity just doesnt seem to be the same. it isnt as clear like urs is. why is that ? that is not gif is it ?

64

What I did was when my image was completed in photoshop, I hid my background layer and exported as png 24. (make sure the transparency box is checked if you have tranz layers) Then I imported in and compressed the image in Flash. My interface is only around 160k…
For more options and probably a better answer, post your question in the “Drawing and Design” kirupaForum.
-------Good Luck-----

Hey Soulty, the down state is fixed… Man, I stayed up reading Flash books all night. It will take some time to get the transitions I want.
I think the rollovers look sweet tho…http://www.jmkm.com

did you leave the image uncompressed again after your update!!! :-\

67

It is compressed… 167k
long load time obviously…hmmm:sigh:

68

ok saw it now, lol. Whats your frame rate, the mouse overs you had before were much faster and smoother, these seem to be a bit slow

69

Good catch… yea, I dropped the frame rate down to 10 (for some reason) it is back to 20 (like it was) I also re-compressed…

Thanks
:slight_smile:
It is transition/content time now, and I’m stuck…
I want to complete this, but I gotta study first…
It would be a shame to waste a good interface…
Any suggestions?

72

read , read, read, search, read, tutorials, read, search, tutorials, draw, draw, read, ,draw :slight_smile:

73

LOL
I keep wanting to use Swish V.2 for the transitions… I own Flash MX,Director 8.5, Swift 3d v.3, and Cinema 4D, but I know nothing about any of them. I want to use the “good stuff” (not Swish)
If I let myself use Swish, my transitions will be sloppy and very limited…BUT I would be done ! LOL
I think I will uninstall Swish and study…:thumb: :sigh:

what you mean by tranisitions?
