Create Website By Using Flash.
Hi everyone,

When I create a website by using flash includes : banner, menu, main frame...
Is it better to creating all of them in one file or to create many files swf then create 1 file and load all of them to it?
if I create all in one file, so does it make bigger size ? and does it take alots time in everytime open the website? (My website is dynamic web).
if I create many files and use loadMovie method to associate them, so is it easy to pass parameters from swf file to another swf file?

Please give me some advise!
Thanks you so much

Use Flash Animation To Create An HTML Website
Hi there,
This is the first time I post on this forum so hi to everybody.
I have a a couple of questions I hope you will be able to help me with:
I have just created my flash animation (swf, swi and html files). Now, what I want to do is convert it to create a new static html page, with no animation but keeping the same images, design and layout, which I will use as a pattern to create the rest of my website in a normal Html editor. Does anybody know how I can do that? Does a software exist or can I use Swish?

How To Create A Simple Flash Website Like This... (Question)
Hi,

I am currently creating my own portfolio website and would like to create it out of flash. I have had a look around and in terms of layout and features I would like to build a website like this one: http://www.alextrochut.com/

In terms of the style it will be unique.

How would I go about building a simple flash website like this with the dropdown text, text overlays, maximised screen and scrollbar?

If anyone could help it would be much appreciated and even if there are any tutorials out there that would be great. I've searched everywhere but it's hard when you don't know the correct terms.

Thanks in advance.

I Want To Create A Flash Website With A Lot Of Bitmaps, Way To Approach?
Hi all,

Before I start I want your opions. I am planning to create a website with a lot of images, scanned images. So I recon it will be a big movie size.

What would be the appropiate approach?

Here are some of my thoughts:Loading each part that is greater then 100kb.
Loading in the background (but does this effects the interaction with the movie)
Making all seperate .swf.
Load when needed (so unload when not?)
Load each image dynamicly (so images are not in the library)

What's your view on this?

Using Flash To Create A Better Website For A Music Group
Hi everyone,

I created a Flash portal for a multi-talented music group and just recently they've received many requests for performing, and this has prompted me to find ways that I can improve on the Flash homepage.

When I first began to work for the music group, the Flash portal was functional in only two ways: An animated introduction to the group, and a news slideshow. News slideshows such as the one on Comcast.net are Flash movies that link to HTML pages. That's fine for right now, but we're living in a Web 2.0 world and I'm excited to learn what I can do with Flash to satisfy the user's experience and promote the content of the website better.

So far the only idea I've come with is to create some kind of contact form in Flash (if that's possible) and add the form to the homepage. What I really want to avoid is the flashy, gimmicky uses of Flash. I don't want people to wonder "why do I need to watch this animation for?"

Thanks!

How Do I Create And Ecard Website?
Hello everyone,

Since I have been creating online greeting cards professionally for three years, now, I feel it is time to create my own online e-card website.

Now for the questions:

1. Does anyone know of a good e-card authoring tool that will allow me to build the website with the cgi scripts so I can just upload the flash cards?

2. Are there any free online cgi scripts that I can get to embed into my html code so I don't have to pay for a e-card authoring tool?

3. Do I need CGI, or can I do it another way?

4. Wouldn't it be better to learn how to build it myself so I am more marketable with my skills?

5. Is there an e-commerce book or website that will teach me how to bring in commerce to the website by using banner ads or other means of revenue?

6. How would you go about building a successful e-card greeting website?

Thanks for your help and suggestions.

AS 3 How To Create SWF File For Embedding To Website, Blog, MySpace, WordPress, Etc
The SWF file is widely used in website designing for displaying animated vector graphics, far exceeding the W3C open standard SVG, which has met with problems over competing implementations. The SWF file format is designed to be an efficient binary delivery format to deliver vector graphics, text, video, and sound over the Internet, not a format for exchanging graphics between graphics editors.

A SWF file is made up of a header, followed by a number of tags. The two types of tags are definition tags and control tags. Definition tags define the objects known as characters, which are stored in the dictionary. Control tags manipulate characters, and control the flow of the file.

The most convenient way for creating a SWF file is using flash creation tool which will enable you to import images, graphics, and sound from all popular formats. AnvSoft Photo Flash Maker is such a flash making tool for creating stunning flash banner with SWF file output.

AnvSoft Photo Flash Maker can be taken as a freeware since it doesn't set any restriction to all features though there will be a company logo for the last slide, if you mind this or don't use this software for commercial purpose, it is undoubtedly the best freeware for making flash slideshow for your Website, Blogger, MySpace, WordPress, YouTube, iPod, iPhone, PSP and more.

No Flash knowledge or programming skills are required to use this Photo Flash Maker since the program has many built-in features, such as transition effects, theme templates which include basic and advanced theme, etc. Everybody can create a swf file with elegant photo flash slideshow in less than 5 minutes. You can create a SWF file with the following three simple steps:

Step 1: Add digital photos to Photo Flash Slideshow
Step 2: Select your favorite theme from the built-in theme templates
Step 3: Publish SWF file and upload to Go2Album for sharing

Generally, the above steps will enable you to make amazing flash slideshow; however, Photo Flash Slideshow also gives the user more options to fully customize the flash slideshow:
1. Edit photos: you can edit the flash with description, text&artclips; you can also embed different URL link to different flashes, when you click on the flash, it will direct you to the website you've set.
2. Apply Transition: under the transition effect tab, more than sixty transition effects are available for selecting; can set different transition&photo duration time for different flash.
3. Change SWF size: under both the basic and advanced themes, you are able to change the SWF size.
4. Adjust theme effect: under the advanced theme, you can click Customize Prosperities button to change the parameters regarding of the output swf file, such as title, background color, background music, description, thumbnail, etc.
5. Output options: there are three output options available to choose; you can choose to create a flash file only, make a gift/presentation CD/DVD, create flash files and upload to Go2Album(if upload to Go2Album, you will get the code to embed the SWF file into HTML or insert to your blog, space, etc.)

For more information, you can refer to the website of AnvSoft Photo Flash Maker.

The output SWF file can be open with Adobe Flash Player software. You can also you some SWF file converters, like Flash to Video Converter, to open it, or convert it for using on the hardware, such as iPod, iPhone, PSP, etc.

Need To Create A Product Catalog Website With 3d Views Of Product
I'm developing a website that is a product catalog for a jewely company.

I need to be able to create interactive 3D views of the products. For example, let's take a ring or bracelet.

The customer wants the end users to be able to view the ring or bracelet in 3d by taking the mouse and moving the ring or bracelet around.

How is this possible?

I would imagine that I would need to create it with 3D max or something and then import into flash.

Could it be done solely in flash?

Thanks.

Searchable Website Vs Slick Website...when To Draw The Line
Just curious what everyone thinks here:

So, we all know how search engines have a hard time reading flash sites. Well, I have come to a road block in my designing...I have clients that want their sites in the search engines but also want a certain amount of 'tech' to them! I can design pages with 'some' flash, enough to make it interesting, BUT if they want a 'fully searchable' page, what do we do?
I can type html all day long but it will never compare to the slickness of flash. I just finished my first 'full html' site in over a year(stuck on flash) and I am blown away by the clarity! It makes flash sharpness look dull! (sorry)

**My Question:
If you had a client that wanted a high tech site and also wanted to be 'searchable', what would you do??

***I'd like to hear all opinions, reasons and answers***

Loading External Flash Files Onto Flash Website
I need help on how to load .swf files on a flash site as a portfolio section, each one will have their own image or animation. The way I want them is to when you change the pages it loads the next object rather than have it on the site and make the site file bigger to load than having it minimual. I found only one tutorial but it incorporates something I don't want and tried working around it to have it load under a frame (not animation frame but like picture frame) in a certain location.
