So I have to ask dumb advice on submitting .swf's. I have used flash often in the past and I know how to make something animate and loop, but:

what about click-able/rollover changes (i like having things optional versus looping quickly), is that all action-scripting?...i really hope it isn't cause i'm poo at it. if someone has the time, could they simplify the exact commands for rollovers and click-ables?

thankyou thankyou thankyou!

the zoom thing is automatic once you submit it to thredless



as for the clickable changes... i haven't really used flash in forever, but what i imagine you could do is have two movies, one with the flash animation looping fast and one with it looping slow or not looping at all, and put each one in a different frame on the main timelime. so they'd be two frames total. add a top command to each frame, and then on the button of each animation, target it to the other frame, so that when you click on it, it'll go to the animation contained within that frame.



uhh, i'm probably wording this in a very confusing way, but i haven't used flash in a while, and can't verify if this works, because i don't have it on this computer. in my head it seems like it would, though! good luck! perhaps later tonight if you're still having trouble i can double check this.

oops, top command = stop command

okay, it is a little confusing, but i haven't done anything too in-depth in flash in a while myself, so i will tool around with it. thanks so much!
