Re: FLASH: Flash leading Edge Gallery

[John Croteau]

Hi Al and all,


Is it possible that you are looking at the old Flash 2 Leading Edge

page?


The old basically Achive Flash 2 Leading Edge site is still available.

http://www.macromedia.com/shockzone/edge/flash/

Unfortunately it is still linked at the Site of the Day Site rather than

the Flash 3 site.  


What used to be called Flash 3 Leading Edge now appears to be just 

called the Flash 3 Gallery. I dislike the design because it doesn't make

good use of screen real estate and is extremely hard to read with 14"

and 15" monitors. A case of another designer that doesn't check his page

on smaller monitors and that takes 'white space' to an extreme.

http://www.macromedia.com/software/flash/gallery/


I would expect newer sites like Steve's to appear on the Site of the Day

before migrating to the Flash 3 Gallery.
