Rotating shapes

M

Myriam

I am quite new at FP, and I don't know how (or even if it is possible) to add
moving shapes or graphics. I have the page quite static and I would like to
make some spheres move, like the globe I see in many pages, rotating on its
axis.
Can anyone help me? I would really appreciate your input.
Thanks

Hi,

You have several ways of achieving your purpose,
You can search in google 'animated gifs'
Then save one gif you like to your computer and then insert it on your
webpage.

The other way is creating a Flash movie, that is more difficult if you dont
have experience.

Good luck

Ahh... ok. How do I create a flash movie? Do I need a specific program or can
I do it with FP?
Thanks

Yo will need Macromedia Flash, it is a program that allows you to create
movies.

Swish is cheaper and a little easier..and creates/edits Flash.

I hope you open this quickly. I'm going out of my mind! I created a
wonderful.swf file with all the rotating shapes and effects that I needed but
now... where do I insert my links!!! The rotating shapes have text which are
supposed to be hyperlinked to other pages in the website. However... what I
created was just a movie!
Thanks in advance!

Sorry, I rarely use flash for links...actually I haven't used flash files in
almost a year. Go back to swishzone and look under Resources for a possible
tute...or join in one of the forums at swishzone and ask there.
