Hi,
This is not really a good tutorial for flash its quite a bad example. Most of your spelling is incorrect like a five year old's and there are no images to help people out with what they are suppose to be seeing. I don't even see what this tutorial is supposed to be pointed at i mean what application? Flash 8, Fireworks which application is it for.. Sorry but this has to be said please take your time writing tutorials because it looks like its just been rushed.
thanks for your comment.
what application?
Read the beginning of the tutorial"start flash program".
I think that this lesson does not need to iamges.
I think it was ok
i think the tutorial is ok. this lesson doesn't need images. but lot of spelling mistakes are there.
thanks : I try to do my best, but english is not my frist language

Yamen.
Filter Tab ? What Version of Flash are you using, that might help out
you can use flash 8 or CS3
Yamen Shahin you did a great job to hell with that english part i liked it much
Hi,
You should not assume everyone reading your tut is an advanced flash developer or has any flash experience at all for that matter. Screen shots and/or video is the standard when it comes to developing tuts. If that weren't the case, why would 90%+ tuts have them? It comes off as being a lazy attempt at a tut to get your name out there.
Just as many of you are continually griping about his spelling and use of the English language, you should perhaps consider that 75% of the world can speak more languages fluently than most Americans can speak their own, much less type them. As far as the poster who said that video and images are the standard, I am glad you consider yourself the standard as well as the authority on the level of flash required to use this tutorial.
As for the tutorial itself it was excellent, easy to follow, easy to understand and I didn't have to sit through 15 mins of mindless crap that I already know how to do, just to get to the meat of it like I would have in a video. Unfortunately as the iGeneration begins to explore more territory if they find a tutorial that does not hand feed them everything they want, they are incapable of using some imagination to create it themselves.
Even if you feel like the tutorial doesn't need any images, one image showing the end result would be beneficial. So people know what exactly what the end result should be.
"Even if you feel like the tutorial doesn't need any images, one image showing the end result would be beneficial. So people know what exactly what the end result should be."
I totally agree with you, I would put the image at the end of the lesson explain its purpose.
Man, u guys really r a bunch of ungreatful whiners. =) The example works & it's completely free of charge. What more can u ask?
I thought this was a good tutorial,thank-you.
If you just follow the steps and just learn on your own at the same time, it shouldn't be a problem without images for this particular tutorial. There are many other tutorials on the net for those who require imagery to learn properly.
I'm sorry to tell you that one thing that is really missing in this tutorial is the final effect you reach.
I'm looking for a goot text effect for a website I'm making, but I won't waste maybe a lot of time to try something that I have no idea which visual effect it has...
I don't know if images or something else is needed in your tutorial, but for sure you should at least put the final effect of your algorithm.
hashintosh, You are absolutely right.
I will put the final result soon!
Thank you :)
hi,
not bad tutorial..but i guess you still need to elaborate what animation you really are tutoring.you said "Glow text animation" but it doesn't glow. it just a blurring effect if you would ask me.
but anyway, thanks for the time sharing this.
It is good but waste I used it lot of times. I applied to my body also i am glowing now like text in this great
THANK YOU!!!!
I have done so much research in books and on the web trying to find out how to add a llink to a web banner. You would think its a big secret or something as difficult it is to find out how to do it. This is the first turtorial that actually explains the process and the code works! Thank you so much.
Nice Tutorial
