seriously...how the heck.

I've seen several sites lately, that seem to be adopting this new style of "all on one page" , like the screen becomes a huge surface to navigate about.
I think this is done in flash...it's gorgeous. Gotta figure out how he/she did it. No matter what style/design I choose for "my" site, I want to incorporate illustration, maybe a little photography, but this site was just realllly nice.

Thought this was pretty cool.

Another way of thinking with websites.

Using the "root" function

For those of you working on your websites in Flash and using frames instead of scenes you may find this code very useful. If you have a nested movie clip and need to jump to back to a frame in the main timeline once it has completed playing, do the following:

On the actions layer inside the nested movie clip place a keyframe in the actions layer at the end of the timeline.

Insert the code:

MovieClip(this.root).gotoAndStop(4);

You do not need a stop; function. 4 is the frame number you'd like to jump back to on the main timeline. Therefore, you'd need to change that depending on what frame you want to call up.

Photo Gallery in Flash A Go!

Finally got the darn thing to work, after following a tutorial that was using ActionScript 2.0! D:<

But I was able to reference between my projects and Google to look up ActionScript 3.0 coding to get the job done. *phew* Now to apply that to my website project.

:D

Joy!

Maurice's Website

I visited Maurice's website for the first time, and I was impressed with the interaction for this website! :) The blurred focus effect was quite interesting as you roll over the buttons, as well as the animation that starts the website (how the website introduces its' menu and such).

Check it out! :)

I still feel like something isn't right.. in the navigation maybe or the proportions... still working...
