I want to draw my own face. I want to do so by uploading a picture on Flash and import on stage and modify it so that I can use it as a template to draw over. How do you do this? I know you go to import >import to stage but each time i try draw over the uploaded pic, it doesn't draw on the pic.
View 8 RepliesI am creating a flash slideshow that i want to use XML to import the pictures. I have the XML set up and need help writing the actionscript to get the pictures in the right place.
I have one large box in the centre of the screen where my slideshow will be happening and want smaller boxes down the bottom which will allow me to select pictures to go straight to when veiwing the slideshow.All pictures are named image1.jpg, image2.jpg and so on.
How do you force Flash to take in a series of pictures as a movie sequence, if the pictures are not in some obvious numbered sequence? I'd rather not rename them. Flash CS3 Mac

View 2 RepliesI'm having two problems. First of all, the gallery loads all pictures at once. The more pictures in the XML file, the slower they all load. Secondly, I wanted the pictures to scroll in its _y coordinate, similar to Sugar Rhyme's website portfolio (see url]...).
View 1 Replies[URL] Take a look at that website. See whe you rollover one of the pictures, the other pictures fade out...Well how can I do that? I've tried some swapDepths techniques but it gets a bit confusing.

how can I use pictures in flash without losting any picture quilty...I mean i don't want to compress them but when i do my site doest work right so I want to put them on there without compressing them.
View 1 RepliesI have a flash app (deployed as Air or regular app for iOS) which displays pictures.
It has to work offline, so I need to bundle my pictures with the flash app. I wrote a script to download all pics from my server to a specific folder before deploying the flash app. Currently, I remove all existing pictures from the FLA and add the new ones, but I was wondering whether there is a way to define a system folder for flash and it will take whatever exists there during the deployment process?
So basically all I'll have to do will be to run my script (to update the folder with the new pics) and recompile the FLA.
Scenario: Upload 2 images to a server. Download those images via AS3 and place them into different containers(movieclip or sprite), not overlapping one another. Well I can do it no problem, but they overlap one another and for some reason use the same "loader".
Code:
for (var i=1; i<2; i++){
var image:URLRequest = new URLRequest("http://myurl.com/images/" +jpgarray[i]+".jpg");
var myLoader:Loader = new Loader();[code]....
There are several different ways you can write the above code, but the outcome is still the same. It uses the same Loader or Movieclip, or uses the same container, simply overlapping the images.
Everything works just fine the only thing i need to know is how to add more pictures to the lightbox?
showcase.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK,pop_up) ;
function pop_up(event:MouseEvent):void {
trace("test");
ExternalInterface.call("Design_Gallery", "images/image-1.jpg", "image-1");
}
I have a Flash 9 AS3 document where I have set up a random picture loader from an XML file.
Works fine on the desktop but when uploaded the random pictures will only load if the XML file and the jpg's are in the same folder as the swf. I have pointed the XML loader address to
the proper spot in the AS3 code as well as in the XML file. I also have code in another keyframe for loading and displaying an RSS feed which works fine. I wonder are the two URL Loaders conflicting somehow. Attached is the RSS and the AS3 code.
I'm thinking about how to approach the problem at hand. There's a flash movie that requires a lot of relativly small images and I'm trying to optimize the time it takes for them to be preloaded.
One thing I've considered it turning on KeepAlive in Apache on the server side. That works. But my mind still wonders if there's anything else
So, what other approaches I may try? Is there a way to compress all those images and then unpack on client side?
i am currently trying to create a fish pond with fishes in it, i have parts of these fishes which i hope i can join them together to create a animation of a fish and be able to control it easily, as i will have to implement some AI on the fish, such as moving to eat a food etc. i am very new to flash and have no idea how can i go about doing this, how can i combine the images to form a fish and then be able to control the whole fish and have it move naturally like a fish without much knowledge of AS3?
View 2 RepliesThese stories are already made in flash. My problem is how to add to the storys That app. Initially one of the approaches was to create an app in Coco2D and make the animations in this language (converting the animations in pictures). However due to possess many animations and sounds, this process is very complicated Thus, I asked opinions on what approach should I do to solve this problem.

I have a three masked pictures all are movie clips on the main timeline and the mask works ok. The problem I am having is a set of buttons on the main timeline which allow you to move between the frames the three pictures are on. They allow me to do this ok but when the movie is started the first time one of the buttons is pressed the masked pictures can be seen on screen briefly before the screen displays the material properly.
This is the script I am currently using:
room_pic.setMask("mc_mask");
mc_mask.onEnterFrame=function(){
this._x=this._x+this._xmouse*0.300000;
this._y=this._y+this._ymouse*0.500000;}
I have three layers the main picture which is a bitmap; the three masked pictures are in the layer above this; and the mask object is in a layer above this and is a movieclip.
I looked at many books but I can't find how I can make a slide show using flash.
View 1 RepliesI want to make a background in flash with pictures I shot (high res) and I want them to be the full width/height of the browser. I found an actionscript which works with tiles but in their example it fits to the screen but when I try it with my pics (swapping and stuff in flash) it comes out like my picture multiplied next to and below eachother. I have several landscape photographs I want to use and let them auto-scale to the full width and height of the visitors browser/screen..
View 4 RepliesI have what I hope is a fairly straight forward question that I hope you can answer if you write code with a Mac or are at least familiar with the process on a Mac? The person I have been working with to create my photography website uses a PC. Here is the problem. I am trying to use my Mac in order to create frames so that I can add 5 more images to a portfolio that presently has 15 images.
The code is in an index.fla file. If I want to create a new frame in the index.fla, let's say LOAD CODE 381 and want to use the same text that is already present in LOAD CODE 380 but with a few edits, I have no trouble going to the Action-Movie Clip and finding LOAD CODE 380 in the left hand column. The problem is, on a Mac, how do I create frame LOAD CODE 381 and then how do I copy and paste the text from LOAD CODE 380 into LOAD CODE 381? It looks like on a PC one can open LOAD CODE 380 in the Action-Movie Clip, highlight the text then right click on the red rectangular box in the timeline. By doing so (on a PC) one sees a drop down menu that gives the option to "copy key frame". What is the equivalent of the "copy key frame" on a Mac? I can see where on the Mac you can go to Edit >copy. Is this the equivalent of "copy key frame" on a PC? If so, once I "copy" the text how do I create the new LOAD CODE 381 so that I can paste the text into the new frame?
I'm trying to get this effect [URL] but, instead of scrolling through pictures from an xml I want it to load one movieclip from the library and pan in and out as shown in the demo.
ActionScript Code:
var xmlURL:URLRequest = new URLRequest("images.xml");
var xmlLoader:URLLoader = new URLLoader();
var xml:XML;
//Declares the image array
var imageArray:Array = new Array();

I tried to modify this so it would work to my standards, but it doesn't... I don't even get any errors.
How to scale pictures when doing website in FLASH. I am creating a flash based website for a friend. I have done all the links and it works great. The only thing is that the images increase as the web browser is maximised.
