as far as creating the 3d effect. it seems like he cut up one image and made it 3 seperate images. foreground, middle, and background. then he brought them into flash as individual images and applied the actionscript for appropriate mouse moves. really quite beautiful!
hey lunatic, do you know any good tutorials on how to apply key strokes to buttons, like what you described earlier about the balafon? I want to try to create something like that myself!
I don’t really know of any tutorials offhand but you can do a search on the forums here and find lots of examples. You’ll have to use a ‘listener’ I believe. You can also check the reference for onKeyUp or onKeyDown in Flash itself to see how it is used.
