Existing Flash Template site need to intergrate photos.

I just purchased a flash photography web template. Very well
designed and functions beautifully. Here is my dilemma. It has
stock images incorporated in there. I would like to replace my own
and update them in the future with new ones.
Im sure there is a way using a script of some sort to work
with the template site.
Any ideas.

Start with HELP and familiarize yourself with Flash basics.
If you don't get the
basics, you won't even understand what is that we talking
about.

Edit website flash template - help needed

Hi! I am about to buy a website flash template. Before I buy the template I want to make sure, that I am good enough to edit to my needs.
I downloaded a free flash template and I tried to edit it in my Flash CS5.
I have had a lot of trouble editing it and I can't even figure out how I change the pictures or the text.
Can anyone help me and maybe give me a little tutorial on how to change the template.
Link to the template: http://www.flashmo.com/preview/flashmo_247_3d_touch_ring
Thank you!

The photos are taken from a XML file. Open the XML file flashmo_247_photo_list' in dreamweaver and look at the code it'll be easy to fiqure out if you have ever done any sort of HTML coding.
Just incase you have'nt look for Example below taken from the xml file which was provided with the .fla file
"<photo>
<thumbnail>s_photo_003.jpg</thumbnail> Change the image name for a thumbnail here i.e. directoryname/imagename.png etc
<filename>photo_003.jpg</filename> Change the image name for a the large image here i.e. directoryname/imagename.png etc
<tooltip>Photo Title 03</tooltip>
<description><![CDATA[Photo Title 03 goes hereIn velit urna, convallis id, pharetra in, iaculis sit amet, mi. Praesent consectetur imperdiet mauris. Suspendisse at pede vel lorem pulvinar laoreet. Etiam et neque. Donec dapibus viverra est.This text is dynamically loaded from the external XML file. This textfield supports HTML and CSS.]]></description> Here you have the option to have a discription about the image i usually just have the name of the image.

Encapsulate existing asp/html site within flash CS3...?

Hi guys,
I am trying to integrate an existing ASP/sql server driven
site within an existing flash-only site.
I have used getURL in some places to grab bits and pieces
but, ideally, I need to have a couple of areas within the flash
site that will access the existing ASP that generates the dropdowns
for searching etc. then pull the results into a separate 'frame'.
Is it possible to define an area within the flash movie that
will enable me to directly retrieve and display the ASP generated
HTML? I'm trying to avoid a whole interface re-write using flash
components.
Thanks in advance for any help, advice or examples.

The easiest way would be to use FlashVars to pass data into your SWF. Just add a parameter to your embed called FlashVars and pass key value pairs.
Object Tag Example:
<PARAM NAME=FlashVars VALUE="FName=Tom&LName=Johnson">
Embed Tag Example:
<EMBED href="display.swf" FlashVars="FName=Tom&LName=Johnson" ... (other parameters)></EMBED>
I usually create my embed from the code-behind so I can add the data as needed and place everything in a label or literal on the front end.

Flash Template Modifications for Character Font

I have a modest understanding of Flash as I had developed a website last year. It has been about nine months since I've opened the tool. Recently my girlfriend had asked me to develop a website for her personal business. Yesterday I was browsing the internet and was amazed at the number of Flash template sites. We actually found one that looked to be perfect. We purchased the Flash template and I began to explore how it works today. When the files are downloaded to your computer there are several file folders included. Some are for pictures and there is HTML as well as the SWF files and the INDEX. In very short order I determined that you could simply replace there pictures with your pictures and even change the text on the buttons as well as the body of the site. It seemed very painless. We are now down to just one issue that I cannot figure out. On the main page there is a place on the page for the company name. I went into the HTML and changed that which worked fine. My issue is that she already has a predefined font for her company. It is Trajan Pro. I cannot find anything in the HTML that has to do with the font. However there is a folder included in the download which is entitled "fonts". Within that folder is the various fonts used in the website. Can anyone tell me how I can change the font that is being used? Where is that defined? Do I have to read the supplied FLA file into Flash and change it? Not sure how to make this as painless as possible! Thanks.
PS -- There is a folder full of Photoshop images which are basically the pages of the site. They have many layers. I tried to change the company name and font in Photoshop but it had no affect.

I am interested in finding out if the text document that the Flash template uses can be modified. These Flash templates always use a conventional text file that you can alter using Wordpad or similar. There are references to variables such as &Name1=YourCompanyName. You are simply supposed to go in and change the value of the company name and save the text file. When you open the associated HTML in a browser the changes are evident. I am not sure how this actually works? The key is that normal folks with no Flash experience are supposed to be able to make a website from a template without using Flash software. I made a change to the above code as follows:
&Name1=Body Das
I have experimentsed with this and it accepts the font color and the font size but I never am able to get the actual font to work. It shows up blank when I preview the HTML in a browser. Again, not sure if there is a different font or styles tag that I could be using with the text document?

Modifying Existing Flash Action Scipt Flash Site

I have an existing flash site denominated with the name StudioDesign and its a basic animated site with masks and animated texts and sounds and texts treated as buttons that animate changing colors and moving left and right. It has the usual basic 5 buttons to go to get URls: Home, About Us, Products, Services and Contacts buttons. I would like to add more text buttons but to no avail.. Tried copying duplicating, making new, backwards engineering and could not make it work. Please Help short time left to finish. Original Site: http://www.shoplaspampas.com/flashsite/index.swf
original flash file http://www.shoplaspampas.com/flashsite/index.fla new revised swf: http://www.shoplaspampas.com/flashsite/pampas_01.swf and the new revised flash file http://www.shoplaspampas.com/flashsite/pampas_01.fla.
This is what I want the site to look like and go to respective url pages: http://www.shoplaspampas.com/flashsite/pampas_01.png.

Thanks Ned, I actually already tried that and don't see anything out of the norm.
Interestlingly enough, I found the original, untouched template FLA & SWF and it does the exact same thing.
Very strange.
On an added note. The loading issue is occurring at the end of the "intro" scene, and does not continue into the "main" scene.
Thank you!

Need help with a flash template

I'm an action script novice, so I downloaded a cool Flash template to beef up a part of a project I'm working on.
That template rotates thumbnails of web sites in a 3D space.
When user clicks on them they launch a new web page.
What I did:
I substituted the web thumbnails with characters and each character has an swf (info on each character) that i would like to load when user clicks on that character. Now, this thumbnail swf is loaded into a holder within a main movie when user clicks on "The Sensetionals" of the main buttons (in that main movie).
What I want to do:
1. When user clicks on each charater, I would like that character's swf to load into the same holder as the thumbnail swf.
Then I would have a close button that will unloadmovie that character swf and load back the thumbnail swf.
2. In the thumbnail swf, i would like to see the names of each character when user rolls over them. It's in the original code now, and shows up when I test the thumbnail swf on its own, but it's not showing up when it plays inside holder of the main movie. AND it's under the shadow/reflections, not readable. So, I would like to see it show up AND on top of the reflections.
Here's the link to view my version.
NOTE: ENTER ENGLISH ONLY
http://www.sensetionals.com/SenseTest/
I hope that's clear and not asking too much, but I'm really stuck and desperate here.
Any help would be greatly appreciated!
Here's the current code inside the thumbnail source file:
stop();
// total is length of label_list OR link_list
// OR total frames inside "flashmo thumbnails"
var total:Number = 13;
// length of label_list array and length of link_list array must be equal
// to length of frames inside "flashmo thumbnails" movieclip
var label_list:Array = new Array( "Dr Anatomy", "Feelix", "Eyeris", "T Buds", "Earl", "Nosey", "Dr Von Micron", "Karlos", "Tiny", "Funguy", "Protozoom", "Virusam", "Bacterio");
var link_list:Array = new Array("AnaTomyMov.swf", "FeelixMov.swf", "EyerisMov.swf", "BudMov.swf", "EarlMov.swf", "NosieMov.swf", "VonMicronMov.swf", "KarlosMov.swf", "TinyMov.swf", "FunguyMov.swf", "ProtozoomMov.swf", "VirusamMov.swf", "BacterioMov.swf");
var radiusX:Number = 330;
var radiusY:Number = 90;
var centerX:Number = 400;
var centerY:Number = 140;
var speed:Number = 0.005;

var t = tn_group_mc.duplicateMovieClip("tn"+i, i);
t.tn_mc.gotoAndStop(i+1); t.tn_shadow_mc.gotoAndStop(i+1);
t.fm_label = label_list[i];
t.fm_url = link_list[i];
t.angle = i * ((Math.PI*2)/total);
t.onEnterFrame = mover;
t.fm_button.onRollOver = function()
fm_label.text = " " + this._parent.fm_label;
t.fm_button.onRollOut = function()
info.text = ""; fm_label.text = "";
t.fm_button.onRelease = function()
getURL(this._parent.fm_url);
function mover()
this._x = Math.cos(this.angle) * radiusX + centerX;
this._y = Math.sin(this.angle) * radiusY + centerY;
var s = this._y /(centerY+radiusY);
this._xscale = this._yscale = s*100;
this.angle += this._parent.speed;
this.swapDepths(Math.round(this._xscale) + 100);
this.onMouseMove = function()

How to get flash template name from a site.

Hello, I recently discovered a site and loved the gallery image used on the home page. I tried to find the name of the flash template used in the image gallery but couldn't find any way on the site. Could you kindly tell if there is any way to find the name of flash template from a site where it is used. The site link is dsm.com/corporate/home.html.
If you have any idea about the flash template used in this site, please inform me. I want to integrate on my site. Thanks for your effort.

you'd have to download and decompile the swf. and that will only help if the template author left comments indicating the template's origin and the user did not remove those comments.

According to Firefox 6 my Shockwave Flash plug in needs updating but it won't let me load the adobe site properly

Addon Manager tells me that the Shockwave Flash plug in needs to be updated but the Adobe web page does not load and just hangs.
It also tells me that the Quicktime plug in is out of date but altho' it will connect to the Quicktime web page it does not complete the loading process.
I have also had problems accessing my Youtube channel adn have had to use a fix I found somewhere in support.mozilla that suggested using https instead of http. This works but why on earth have I had to do this? What has gone wrong with FF6?

Here I am replying to my own question. For the 8 people who apparently also have these problems I have solved the Adobe Flashplayer one. Or at least I am assuming that there was a causal connection between what I did and the result but, then again, who knows?
If you have IE on your system, make sure that the Flash Active X extension is installed and up to date. Then go through the rigmarole with Firefox and updating the Shockwave Flash. It should work.
Still no idea about Quicktime.

Website template help needed

Hello group,
I am hoping someone is willing to take the time to help a new
Flash user. I have a website template I need to customize and get
rid of all the generic text and pictures but I am not sure the
easiest way. I am sure I am going about it the hardest way possible
without much luck. I have all the .fla files and the site works
fine in it's generic form. I have figured out how to update just an
ordinary picture but I can't figure out how to change the picture
of a library bitmap when it has a background. I can replace the
entire thing but I want to keep the background image the picture is
on. It is a custom shape, color etc. designed just for this site. I
looked for just an instance of the picture but it only appears in a
bitmap combined with the background as far as I can tell. I do have
the .PSD files and I am pretty sure I can do it that way but I am
not sure if Photoshops "publish for web" will give me my flash site
or just an HTML version. I am sure there is something I am
overlooking. Any help for a newbie would be greatly
appreciated.

The photos are taken from a XML file. Open the XML file flashmo_247_photo_list' in dreamweaver and look at the code it'll be easy to fiqure out if you have ever done any sort of HTML coding.

Cannot upload photos to internet sites with the new Photo app (10.10.3 Update)

I'm not a huge fan of the redesigned Photo app that came with the 10.10.3 update. So, I can no longer upload photos from my computer to websites with this app. It's like the pictures don't exist when the window pops up for what files you would like to select. I have had to work around by dragging the photos out of the app and to my desktop, then upload them via the pop up window from there; that works just fine. Now I have duplicates all over my desktop cause I need them so frequently. All my photos and albums do seem to be in the app correctly, I just can't access them from other programs and the Internet. I run the latest of Firefox. IPhoto is still showing on my dock too, does it need to be there now that it has been replaced with the Photo app? I havent tried opening it, but I do know I cannot select any images from the old IPhoto when trying to upload to the Internet, the app doesn't exist in that situation. Even beyond upload to third party sites on the Internet, I had the same issue when I attempted to put my logo in to Pages to create a binder cover last night. I had to go do my work around again and drag my logo out of the program to the desktop. I have restarted the computer several times and have shut down nightly since the new update. What is wrong with this app?

Seems like a simple question
How exactly are you uploading?
And after you stated that you did not understand this simple question you answered it
And of course until you answered no one had any idea how you were doing it - there are many ways including many incorrect ways so in order to help we have to understand what you are doing - many times the answer is as simple and providing the correct method to replace the incorrect method that one is using
And iphoto of course still exists and is usable on you system - Photos was added - iPhoto was not removed with the upgrade to 10.103
You are not "forced to use Photos - in fact many people are not - I am not yet sure if I will or not
And the discussion on using the media browser is not at all irreverent - in fact it still works virtually exactly the same as with iPhoto - which is why I referenced it of course
And you spent so much time on weird and incorrect dribble that you failed to answer another critical question
what happens that you can not upload them?
WE can not see you and can not help unless you actually provide details and all requested information - you stream of incorrect statements and editorials not only do not help us help you, they create a major barrier to helping you

CAN YOU USE A FLASH TEMPLATE IN IWEB?

I have recently created my website using iWeb....albeit with much help from this forum...and am very pleased with the results.
I would like to, however, have my site open with a Flash introduction. I have seen many affordable Flash Templates for sale on the web and am wondering it any of these would successfully work with iWeb. If so:
1. What specs would I need to look for?
2. Does anyone know of a site that sells iWeb compatible Flash intros?
Thanks for all of your answers to my previous posts and hopefully this one as well.

Sandie,
Yes I have used Keynote as an intro and I once used it in swf format. I ended up liking the QT better.
Here is the intro:
http://web.mac.com/abenningfield/iWeb/CameraObscura/Camera%20Obscura%20Intro.htm l
As an example...here is another I created in Keynote:
http://web.mac.com/abenningfield/iWeb/ArchivalGenealogyVault/Archival%20Genealog y%20Vault%20Intro.html
But as far as Adobe Flash goes.....I don't have the pro version (I have Basic) and I got a fully functional demo for 30days. Yeah it did cost about 400 bucks after the 30 day trial. Yikes.
On the right side of this page is a third party flash file that I bought for a dollar. I used the free demo of Flash and put it on my site. After you format the flash file you want.....you don't need to keep Flash unless you want it (I did).
http://web.mac.com/abenningfield/iWeb/CameraObscura/Links.html
But Keynote is great...and yes Kirk is right....wait for the new version.
Also here is another app that converts video to swf:

Flash template movie gallery ...

heres my question...
i have a flash template that im working on, it has interactive picture gallery where you roll over with the mouse and click on the desired photo to see it on bigger size. I would like to replace the big photos with videos of my showreel. you can go and check it out: www.miraclesoundstudio.com . Flash only allows me to exchange for the same file this case pictures. Is this possible? I need help I cant figure it out!

most likely it uses an xml file to load your thumb nails and large images. find change on of the thumbs and large images to a video.
if your gallery is not designed to play videos, you'll then need to find where the parsed xml is used to load thumbs. you'll need to change that code to check for a video file extension and add all the code needed to play a video.

Who has a link to free Flash? I need Adobe Flash to play videos.

I need Flash to view videos.

No Flash for iPads, iPhones, or iPods
Here's why there's is no Flash available for iDevices or other mobile devices. Adobe was unable to provide a product that was suitable to the needs of battery powered mobile devices used for Internet browsing. Existing Flash technology used too much memory, ate battery life, and was buggy. Simply put Flash did not work well on mobile devices.
Apple's Steve Jobs led the escape from Flash dependency when Apple introduced the iPhone, and later introduced the iPad. There was a hue and cry over the omission. Time proved Jobs was right on target.
So this is why there is no Flash for your iPhone or iPad or iPod nor for most SmartPhones. Flash has been abandoned by many sites in favor of supported technologies such as HTML5 or by providing their own custom app.
Here is Steve Jobs official comment on his momentous decision to omit Flash from iDevices: Steve Jobs on Flash.
Here is Adobe's later announcement to cease development of Flash for mobile devices: Adobe on Mobile Flash. Adobe is not providing Flash for Apple iOS devices, and they no longer provide Flash for any other cellular phones. Flash is officially gone.
Now, you are not necessarily out on a limb. There are some apps that can display some Flash, but don't count on there ability to display anything using Flash.
A sample of Apps that can display some Flash content:
1. Puffin
2. SkyFire
3. Photon Flash
4. Browse2Go
5. Swifter
Also, note that many sites that use Flash provide their own app for accessing their material. So check with your favorite sites and find out if "there's an app for that."

Existing Flash Template site need to intergrate photos.
