This might be a stupid question

…but…i was wondering, what is (in your own opinion) the best, all-around web site you have been too. or just your favorite?

mine is…www.rayoflight.net

but…it is a hard decision of course

remember, there are not stupid questions, just stupid people.

allright…i will try not to take that personally*

If it helps you not to take it personal a teacher of mine once said that this phrase means that there are no supid questions, but people who don’t ask questions because they think they are stupid questions are stupid people.

I will keep that in mind lostinbeta, thank you for the advice…hey…if you wouldnt mind…could you give me a hint on how you did that effect on your little “footer” thingy…i think i have an idea…but im new to actionscripting, so…maybe not.

olny if you want of course…i would appreciate it.

That tutorial, with all _y and _ymouse properties taken out.

And some png images.

(and some if statements to keep it from scrolling off the page so you can see the edges)

but losts footer is flawed so dont do it exactly like what his is like

shweew… been wanting to say that for a long time - just never had the courage

:wink:

What the hell, since when did we have a trout shield?

since my fan (sen) decided to make one :slight_smile:

hey lost- your site is pretty cool.

how did you make your page move from side to side when u click on a link.i think that is pretty cool

thanks

awesome, thank you lostinbeta, i will mess around with that and see what i come up w/. thank you much.

Sen made a trout shield!! hahah After all the trout beatings, he adapted himself. :stuck_out_tongue:

Flawed? How so Sen? I don’t see any problems with it!

::bastard::

Alex: It is DHTML and Javascript. Only works in IE :frowning: and is a tad on the complicated side. And thanks for the compliment :slight_smile:

i didnt notice any flaws either?

Im just nit-picky, but for a footer it kicks.

anywho, the effect attained (and I assume desired) is that of depth. You have 3 depths of field… possibly 4 with the text, I cant see it now so Im not sure, and each one of these fields ease at different speeds. These speeds are what allow the foremost depths of field move faster, as they would if they were physically closer to you, and the furthermost fields slower, again, as they would if they were physically further away from you. However, your bounds are close if not similar for each one of these fields, so the distant fields continue to move even though the foremost field has lost its momentum and found the ‘resting place’ for the target movement. The closer fields get there faster and therefore stop sooner. However, in depth perception in a consistent directional gaze, the further, slower depths will not move as much as the closer fields and stop their movement at the same time as (and proportional to) the closer depths of field. So when the close grass reaches where it needs to be, the distant grass should also be where it needs to be, however it continues to scroll and you get this wierd ‘the background is sliding away’ effect.

again, no big deal at all and probably no one would ever notice but me but there, I said it. Feel free to pummel me with fish.

[edit] the excuse I always told myself is that not only are you moving side to side, but you are also panning as well therefore creating a rotation at the point of the closer grass allowing for distant grass to move without it needing to [/edit]

Cmon now! That’s a South Park referrence (said by Mr. Garrison)!

Here’s another quote: He who asks a question is stupid for five minutes but he who does not ask the question is stupid forever.
