Re: FLASH: Site Check... Lots of Flash and CGI

[AX]

HI,

Quite simple actually...

The star is a button in the first frame of a little movie clip.

On mouseover... it plays that movie clip... which from the second

frame on is a graphic of the star which twinkles, and then goes

back to frame 1 (where the button is) and is ready for another 

mouse over.

Does that answer your question?


Another interesting thing about the stars is that this little star movie

clip duplicates itself in a random size and place within a certain area,

up to a specified number, so the stars are always random!


Thanks


AX
