How is this Flash Site done?

I'm trying to make a site like www.georgespencer.com
Any ideas how its done?

well mayb..bt i'm having difficulty figuring out two
functionalities here..
1. when you click on any thumbnail..it zooms and navigation
buttons appear at the sides..if you move to any other clip and then
click on the "ZOOM OUT" button the movie zooms out at the clip
where it had stopped. How do i detect which thumbnail was on the
screen when the zoom out btn was clicked?
2. when u reach a the end of any row or column u have an
option to move the 1st clip of the next row e.g.
if you reach at the end of the 1st row..the right arrow btn
changes to another button which then slides down the Movie to the
1st clip of the 2nd row.. how is dis done?

How was this "flash" animation done?

How was this "Flash" animation done?

There is a "flash" that goes down the sholder of a man in this Flash intro page. It is a series of jpg images. Do you know how this can be done or which program was used? I want to chage the page of it.
Thanks, Steve

Hi Steve,
I'm pretty sure it's done with a mask. You have the man picture layer and the border layout masked by a symbol (maybe a square or rectangle) above it.
If you want to know how to use mask in Flash, just ask Google. There is a bunch of tutorial on the web.
Hope it's a good start for you !

Flash site done - i got a problem

I have my flash site done... but now when i click on the contact page it will go the home page? I have looking, and looking but I can't find the problem. Any clue where I should look first?
If you want to have a look, here is my link: http://www.idmiami.com/maria/ForSmiles.html
Thank you.

It would appear as though you either do not have a stop() for your contact us section, or there is some code causing it not ignore a stop(). You'll need to explain how the design is done and what controls you have implemented for navigation.

I am reloading Photoshop CS2 and I can't get it activated. How is this to be done?

I am reloading Photoshop CS2 and I can't get it activated. How is this to be done?

The activation servers are retired and so your old CS2 copy and serial number no longer work.
Adobe has non-activated Photoshop CS2 and a new serial number to go with it only for CS-CS2 owners.

How is Flash Sites done - Pages as Frames?

i am wondering how are flash web sites done? having frames to act as pages? is that the best way?

Ouch, a full Flash website with only code and dynamicaly builded is quite a complex matter.
There is for sure a tutorial out there... for this, and another one for that, and so on. What I'm saying is that, it is a matter of many different bits of "areas of knowledge".
When someone dwelves for the first time into making a professional full Flash website, he discovers many kinds of new difficulty regarding what first seems to be small details.
However, most flashers, (I guess...), eventualy starts to dwelve that way one day or another, because some tricks can only be done with code...
And yes, you can dynamicaly build a form in Flash. Usualy, for my part, I will design it in Flash, on the scene, and then make the code according to the layout. For sending the data to PHP or MySQL, that should be done with code anyway. But you are right, forms are complex because of the many different kinds of fields and menus and buttons (depending of the form).
Many will use some parts of the website as predone MovieClips (like forms), inside a full coded website. There is not a one-way-only to make a full flash.
Google for those bits you want (like forms), and you will find many a tutorial.

How to update flash sites without flash installed

Hi,
aside from using ICE, is there a way for someone to update a flash site with pictures and text who doesn't have flsah installed on their computer? i.e., how can you add as well as replace additional text and image files without doing it in flash and publishing a swf file everytime?
Kind regards,
Steve

It depends on to what extent you mean to add new content. You can add content dynamically, but the groundwork needs to be in place in the swf for the data that defines the content to be processed as well as for placement of the content.
XML is one commonly used way of defining content. All a person needs is an ascii text editor file to change the content of an XML file, and the ability to upload that file to a server (or an interface could also be created for them to create that document online, but that's another system in itself).

Any ideas on how/if this can be done

Is there a way to get Coldfusion to be able to recognize new
inserted data
and 'refresh' the screen? I guess the best example of the
idea would be for
a chat room where when the user enters new text, it
automatically appears on
the screen. I am using the cf widgets typed Flash.

ColdFusion? No. It runs on the CF server, not on the client
and cannot
have a hand in initiating activity from the client.
You need to use something like Flash or - buzzword of the
month - AJAX.
(I don't know what you mean by "I am using the cf widgets
typed Flash", but
maybe you're already part-way down the Flash route...?)

It comes with effort and patience! This effect is simple...
tweening... give it a go and see what you can achieve through trial
and error, you will get far more out of it than copying someones
walkthrough.

How is this cartoon effect done? HELP!

Hey I can't seem to figure out how to do this effect. It's a cool effect that I noticed pewdiepie uses when photoshopping in his videos. Ignore the creepy *** photo, but it's an example of the effect.

Eeeek!!!
The Oil Paint guess is just for the hair I assume? A couple of plugins that would do similar are Fractalius, and Topaz Clean, but if you have CC 2014.2.2 then you could get close with Render Flame, and clip Hue/sat and curves layers to the flames to sort out the colour and contrast.

Scalabale flash Sites

Hello all.
I would like to know how are scalabale flash sites done in
flash like
THIS ONE. I
tried to change html <object> tag's parameters regarding the
width and height but the results were not what i expected. Besides,
there has to be some ActionScript to set the position of visual
elements on the stage dynamically as I saw in some examples.
Thank you!

swf width and height to 100%. set your stage scaling to
noscale. add a stage listener for onresize.

How was this site built ???

I came across this Flash site and was wondering what product,
other than Flash, would have been used to build it.
http://www.mitsubishi-motors.com.au/red/
What I'm particular interested to know is how the 3d
transitions were accomplished after a menu item is clicked. I
imagine it would have been done is some other program and brought
into Flash.

This was probably done in a sophisticated 3D program like
3DStudio Max,
Maya, or Lightwave, etc. While the 3D is done by highly
skilled artist(s),
what's just as important is the planning for the transitions
between the 3D
scenes and the overall planning effort which seems to be a
large effort in
and of it's own.

FLash site will redirect to 3 subdomains(html,blog,forum)How SEO Friendly is going to be MyWebsite?

I'm building a website which is going to have 3 subdomains to load within . One html is going to promote the services and sell it (135mb), one WordPress blog news (15mb) and one vBulettin forum. For this reason I have a typical flash template with 4 selections, with one click for each of the 4 images which will describe the content, this will redirect people to the right place ( html website,blog, and forum ) . What is the best method to SEO my website ? I need people to know/easy to find me on google, to know abaut the services I offer, blog news and forum. I cannot enter all those menus on the services subdomain because I dont want people to get scared that they have to pay for someting and get out; the blog looks more worst compare with html so I cant enter all links in there..; forum its forum..
So my only decent option is to have this flash site with 3 big options which will redirect people to their choises. But how is going to affect SEO ? am'I going to need to SEO my subdomains, like www.mywebsite.com/services , or the main flash site ?
thank you

I agree with what Ned is saying, the Home page for your site IS normally the most important and should be well packed with SEO targeted content... of which Flash by itself is not very good. In addition, iOS devices like the iPhone will not display the Flash.
So while it is possible to get great page rankings for those various sections, the HTML, Blog, or Forum, it may take longer and lacking good SEO for your Home page, in effect will dillute the overall SEO effectiveness of the site.
So my advise, don't use Flash for your Home page. If you do, then you should use swfobject and create extensive alternate content. This alt content will satisfy the SEO requirements as well as provide a display for iProducts.
For your review:
If you think that Flash is somehow bad for SEO, it's time to dispell that MYTH!
If fact, in some circumstances I'll use Flash INSTEAD of just HTML because then I'll have better SEO than with just HTML alone.
The client provided the artwork for the page... and that's what they wanted to use a .jpg image. Well yes, that could be done in HTML but it would be virtually invisible to Google. So Instead I converted the image into a Flash .swf and used swfobject to display the Flash. swfobject allows you to create alternate content inside the <div> which also holds the Flash .swf, then when the page is loaded it detects if the browser has the Flash pluggin. If it does, it displays just the Flash content, if not, it displays the alternate content. Since almost everyone has the Flash pluggin, for most people the Flash version of the <div> will display.
The alternate content for that <div> can be any regular HTML text, images, media player, links, etc., anything that you would use if you were not using the Flash. Now the best part is that the alternate content can be "over the top" as far as optimizing for SEO, since it will not be seen by most viewers.
Here's another example of SEO with Flash.. again, the page is just a single image provided by the client:
http://www.ksowetsuits.com/
View the source code. The alt content is paragraph after paragraph of information about the site, including lists and links. If it was just the HTML, it might be kind of a boring Home page. But for SEO I can go "over the top" in promoting the site, since most viewers will never see that part... but it's all indexed by search engines. The end result is BETTER SEO using Flash than just HTML.
On another Web site, a Flash video is displayed, the alt content is the complete text narration of the video. Now how many people would take the time to read that if they could just watch the video instead?? again, better SEO with Flash than without. In fact in one case we had first page search result from that video narration within 4 hours of posting the page.
On still another site with a Flash video, the alt content is another video, but a .mov version, which will, in effect play Flash video on the iPhone (not possible you say??). Well since the iPhone does not have Flash pluggin, it simply displays the .mov version of the video, while everyione else sees the Flash version.
So anyway, if Flash is a part of your Web development, you should look into using swfobject and alternate content.

My Flash Site looks very low in quality (I'm viewing in High Quality)

Hi all,
I am wondering why this Flash site I've designed is so rough
looking (indecipherable text, pixellated edges etc.).
Because I was working with content already created in
Illustrator (10), I copied them over to Flash (CS3) as vectors and
resized them. I'm guessing this method may be a big factor but even
text I added myself doesn't look as good as it should (namely the
buttons and text in the 'Lotus' section); I added my own text using
Flash.
Here are two examples of the site (only the Lotus and
Portfolio buttons work, clicking the Change and Grow icon takes you
back to the home page):
800x550
Resolution
Scales according
to window size
Also, if you go
here you will see a
simple jpeg.
I'd prefer to keep the site at 800x550 resolution without
rescaling but as you can see that isn't a good idea.
[L=This
site]http://ti.arc.nasa.gov/destination/iss/flash/index.html{/L]
uses very small text (in the case of the menu on a black
background) yet looks fine.
Also, the thumbnail on the Portfolio page looks very bad even
though it wasn't resized in any way using Flash (I reduced the size
of the original image in Photoshop and changed the DPI from 200 to
72, then imported it into Flash as a jpeg.
Any help at all is very much appreciated!
Niall
PS. I changed the text to bold to make it a little clearer
though I'd prefer to keep it regular.

"I copied them over to Flash (CS3) as vectors and resized
them" - what do you mean you copied over to Flash? Do you mean
import?
"text I added myself doesn't look as good as it should" -
check your anti-aliasing in Flash
"I'd prefer to keep the site at 800x550 resolution without
rescaling but as you can see that isn't a good idea." - no,
actually that is a good idea - not to rescale - any time you resize
a flash document with rastered graphics, you will get distortion
'uses very small text (in the case of the menu on a black
background) yet looks fine." - they are using pixel fonts
"Also, the thumbnail on the Portfolio page looks very bad
even though it wasn't resized in any way using Flash (I reduced the
size of the original image in Photoshop and changed the DPI from
200 to 72, then imported it into Flash as a jpeg." - looks fine to
me (on the unscaled version), but I don't have anything else to
compare it to - check your image compression settings in flash
(both under Publish Settings/flash tab and when you double click
the bitmap in the library you can control compression settings.
What level of compression are you using when saving from Photoshop?
The word "graphic design" looks better here
http://www.lotusgraphicdesign.net/
then here
http://www.lotusgraphicdesign.net/small.html
, but they are different sizes. Which is the original size?
Another note: "Because I was working with content already
created in Illustrator (10), I copied them over to Flash (CS3) as
vectors and resized them." if you actually imported an ai file into
flash, I know it also imports clipping masks and things of that
nature. When you resize an imported ai file, you may be getting
weird results from also resizing the clipping masks, too. When I
import an ai file, I break up everything as much as possible.
Depending on how you import your ai file, bitmaps will be created,
so make sure you stay away from bitmaps when possible when resizing
any symbol.
That's all I can really think of.
