I don't know if this is new in Flash CS3 or not, but I just started noticing it - web pages that are flash from top to bottom. No matter where you right-click the pop-up menu tells you it is Flash. And the whole thing resizes along with the browser's window. How does one do this? And then to b...more >>

Is it possible with flash, to position a movie clip within the browser so that it is always in view?

Where in the site or page does the preloader reside? Does it replace the index.html page so that it l...more >>

Fash file size
Posted by jeroliver at 8/8/2007 3:19:35 PM
I've created a "small" flash website for a client. I was conscious of file size from the beginning but my final SWF file is approx. 1.6MB. I'm sure this is because of the 15+ portfolio images you can navigate through. I've selected all unused items from my library and deleted them. This size i...more >>
