Well, actually, this is only the first stage of the big project, which is

putting all four Mexico City zoos online themselves, with all the animals,

the sounds they make, their habitats, etc.  It's planned to be two versions

as well:  all HTML and all Flash.  For the zoos themselves, we are going to

rely heavily on the animal iconography you mention.  This first stage is

only for the Zoo department itself.

Yes, I noticed that too.  Gonna fix it today :-).  Thanks.

Yes, I actually had the label on the wrong frame, so the button action was

going to the wrong place.  Fixed it.  Thanks.


The problem here is more of logistics than anything else, actually.

Because I correct the little bugs, then re-send the .swf file to the

webmaster and I don't have a way of controlling when she uploads it.... Oh

well, that's what happens when your client is the government... #!%/&

bureaucracy (sp?)
