Top 5 flashers

Next time I am on I will try and sign on earlier :slight_smile:

best of the worst? lol
They should change ā€œMess with the best, die like the restā€ to ā€œMess with Lostinbeta, die like the restā€ :stuck_out_tongue:

LOL, you crack me up.

I am far far far far far far far far far far far far far far far far far from the best.

I can’t even see the best I am so far behind!

Just ask the people who are the best :slight_smile: They can’t see me either…lol.

I have to ask the best people?
Well then I have to ask you! lol Wanna see yourself? Get a mirror!
I’m telling ya! Every once in a while I’m drooling at yur AS effects!

You don’t have to be good to create nice effects.

A lot of my effects are just simple code, that can probably be simplified/optimized by people like Ilyas or Sbeener to be like 10 lines tops.

But for me are like 60 lines…lol.

easy actionscript you’re telling me! When you post the as I’m drooling even more man!
Well… doh! It’s movie time! gonna watch TV now…

Look at the stuff Ilyas posts… I drool over those AS effects :slight_smile:

Enjoy your movie :slight_smile:

hm… EricJr sure is a kick-ass scripter… he probably does fit in the top 5:beam:

Is he a member of the board?

The question was for the top 5 flashers that are members of this forum.

He joined lately, he got a blog full of prototypes, he posted a site check, check his blog here:

Just wondering (yet again :)), are any of you guys able to produce some of the stuff like kick-ups on spikything.com or is that like the most advanced flash stuff ever?

what exactly are you talking about? I couldn’t find anything that was all that advanced on the site. The games would be kind of difficult, but nothing that an intermediate flasher wouldn’t be able to do.

Ok, i don’t know Flash so I don’t know if thats hard to do. Kirupa just told me that stuff like kick-ups was very hard to do and beyond his Flashing skills.

what exactly are kick-ups? I’m not sure what you are talking about…

i dont think most of us can be catagorized as ā€œthe best flasherā€ (except kirupa, hes like god of this site, in a flashligous sense… hehe )

but i think most of us has really great strenghs and weaknesses, and thats what makes us great… =)

we all complement each other in our flash work =)

Kick-ups was one of the games on the site.

oh ok. Thanks for clarifying. That shouldn’t be too difficult to recreate. It wouldn’t be super easy…but its doable…

Okay… if I were to name the top 5 flashers… I’d have to judge a little bit more into it… And Yeah I agree with Phil on the website theory… If I was getting paid to do Flash… I’d sit down and be even more serious wiht it… But I’m not getting paid for it yet so… hehe…

Let’s see… Basic effects for Flash are easy to create… What I’d look for is originality… Creativity… And the ability to blend those with art, and interactivity… Isn’t that really what Flash is about?

Me myself… I’m good at Physics, Geometry, and Game Programming. Whether it be C++ or Flash Actionscript… I have that mindset… But I don’t have the creativity in art anymore now that I haven’t been drawing as much… But… Gimme a game idea and I can make it for you… :slight_smile:

So… I divide this into multi sections… As the 5 best flashers I present to you for the 5 best [per catagory…

Allright… Just my tidy little list…

I just help out with the little stuff :slight_smile:

If you help out with the little stuff then what do I help out with?
It’s so little it can only be seen with a 80x magnifying glass!
