do you need a certain word written in tribal or do you need a full TTF…and what do you consider tribal? I think I saw one on either of these 2 sites [www.dafont.com](http://www.dafont.com) or [www.101fonts.com](http://www.101fonts.com) .

If you need a certain word written in tribal I could be able to help you with that.

ok I posted this a while back…but i have a movie (mainstage) that have 5 frames…frame 1 a MC with a button…the other 4 frames contain the same graphic as frame 1 but different animations…what I want to happen is when a person mousesOver frame 1, the playhead will randomly goto one of the four other frames…for the appearance of random animation…then return to frame one when done. there will be more than 4 animations in the future but four is good for now.

working on your thing now…got some free time

would not open for me…kept crashing mx…but yes it is mx…Basically I wanna jump to a random frame. I have a button in frame 1…click it…sends you to a random frame (2 - 5 as an example) in those frames are different animations…when it play sends you back to frame 1. Trying to imitate randome movement i guess. cna t explain it any better sorry if I am confusing u.

nevermind got it to open…yes that is what I am after…exactly thanks…still working on your thingy…have never done tribal b4 so I am sketching it first…

here is my first attempt…it is not the greatest this is my first time drawing something like this but I noticed there are mainly 2 types the smooth flowing type and the dramatc angle type. tried to go between the 2…keep in mind this is a sketch and will look better when I vector it…it is the first word “pare” if you like it… I can whip up the rest…and vectorize it if not I can go back to the drawing board…
