h2g2 The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy: Earth Edition

I've been playing about with Macromedia Flash for a year or so now, and have just re-learnt (or really, am in the process of re-learning) Flash MX 2004 Professional.

And here's what I came up with.

Help.

They're cool, a bit paint like though and no clickable areas.

Having played with Flash before I can definitely say that they are better than I can do!

Yeah. I can't get myself accustomed to ActionScript 2.0. There seem to be so many subtle changes.

I don't ever remember using action script

Mel

Those are cool! Sorry I can't say anything the least bit helpful about flash, though.

Yeah. ActionScript is the scripting language Flash uses to manage button click events, and whatnot.

Thanks Hellbound - I could do a lot better; these are just what I knock up while I relearn MX2004Pro. My favourite is the Surreality one, because it has an intro screen, a loading indictator, the smoothest animation of them all, music, and it's kinda freaky.

I'll have a think for some ideas and probably make something more meaningful later. Maybe even a real flash anim with a storyline!

that would be

Keep us posted!

As for action script I think I may have heard of it but I haven't used Flash in donkey's years. I tend to try more for things like fireworks, it can give some cool effects without being too complicated
