  Flash questions
 
Hello, all. I've been thinking about making a sight using only Flash. I'm too lazy to do HTML, and Flash is much easier and cooler. :) But, I have a few questions before I go and buy a real program instead of a demo. Why don't more people use Flash? (...)

  Re: Tony's LEGO Stuff v2.0
 
I say keep the images in the same window. If someone wants a new window, they can hold shift while clicking the link (in IE 6 at least). Descions like that should be made by the viewer, not the coder, IMO. Personally, I don't really like the flash (...) (22 years ago, 9-Feb-03, to lugnet.publish.html)
 
  Re: Tony's LEGO Stuff v2.0
 
Tony, I have a piece of Javascript where you can provide it the name of the image and it pops open the window for you. Included on the window is a close button. I could modify the script so that you could provide it the next and previous images and (...) (22 years ago, 9-Feb-03, to lugnet.publish.html)
 
  Re: Tony's LEGO Stuff v2.0
 
I don't think I have the patience to code a page for each image :( Especially since Paul needs more pics :) I still have to praise Sun for his patience though. As for the text, I was waiting to here about this. I was at a freind's house and they (...) (22 years ago, 9-Feb-03, to lugnet.publish.html)
 
  Re: Tony's LEGO Stuff v2.0
 
Instantaneous? Heck Ya! I hate waiting for pics to load, too impatient! I am glad to here that it loads fast. I'm still trickling through with a 28.8 connection, and I think it loads pretty fast, especially after you have the animation cached! (...)

  Re: Tony's LEGO Stuff v2.0
 
Ah yes the intro flash has been corrected. I forgot to put a stop action at the end and to goto url command takes a few frames, so that is why the repeat occured. The flash at the top I am totally buzzed about. I gives you something to look at while (...) (22 years ago, 9-Feb-03, to lugnet.publish.html, lugnet.build.mecha, lugnet.space)

(...) I'm fine with the pop-up window for the pictures, although I wouldn't mind seeing a 'next' and 'previous' button on them similar to the Foundry DX site. I have my browser text size set to 'medium' and run a resolution of 1024x768 and I found (...) (22 years ago, 9-Feb-03, to lugnet.publish.html)
 
  Re: Tony's LEGO Stuff v2.0
 
This looks incredible Tony. Not only is the Flash beautiful, but it compliments the site rather than overpowering it. The presentation is clean and pro, the navigation easy, and of course the content rocks as always. Viewing it on XPpro thru a 56.6k (...)

  Re: Tony's LEGO Stuff v2.0
 
Dude your site is so frick'n cool I can't beleive it! Quick run down: Entrance page: Frigg'n cool as heck! Only thing, I noticed, the Flash trys to repeat right about the same time the page redirect is taking place. So it seems like some more Flash (...)

I didn't realize my my post would carry so much weight as to actually cause change. Now all of the window pop-up people will be cursing my name. Ah the pressure! Jason (...) (22 years ago, 9-Feb-03, to lugnet.publish.html)

  Re: Tony's LEGO Stuff v2.0
 
Hey I am glad you responded to my question. I could not decide on the pop-up or the smae-browser-back-button approach. So now that someone has spoken in favor of the back button, I will switch it. Thanks Jason. out (...) (22 years ago, 9-Feb-03, to lugnet.publish.html)

  Re: Tony's LEGO Stuff v2.0
 
Everything looks great. The only thing I don't like is that the images pop-up in another window. I personally perfer to view images in the same window and use the back button, but that's just me. Jason (...) (22 years ago, 9-Feb-03, to lugnet.publish.html)

Tony - The site looks great! I haven't seen the toy store yet, that's hilarious! I love all the space versions of real life facilities such as these stores and such that people make. Very creative! Keep up the good work, I love your MOCs. -Tim (22 years ago, 8-Feb-03, to lugnet.publish.html, lugnet.build.mecha, lugnet.space)

  Re: Tony's LEGO Stuff v2.0
 
Tony, it looks fantastic. This just keeps reminding me how much I need to work on my site. Really, I'll get to it, I mean that. <sigh> Maybe after I win the lotto and get some free time to boot. ;p My only real suggestion, can I get a "skip (...)
