Hi,  
I am new to Flash, and as well new to this site and forum!

I found this site to be very useful and the way the tutorials are so simple and easy to understand, rather than using Jargons which i bet even the advanced users get confused!

Well, I am working on a smal project for my friend, in having the wedding invitation designed, to be sent over e-mails.

And i have used quite some effects form this site like the Ray of Light, Random Text, Pool of squares…!

\*\*Now I am looking specifically for the typewriter text effect, where the text gets displayed one after another, this is for a paragraph, in invitation! \*\ ***would greatly appreciate if someone could help me out with this, and suggest some good ones!**

**Thanks in advance, and awaiting for reply!**

Rgds,

D’pak

Excellent.  
Can you remake the code, so that the text slows down more and more near the end?
