Flash Website Tutorial?

[Shannon]

I have trawled the net for a tutorial on how to make a Flash website. I'm making a website but I want to make it a Flash site. I'm thinking of providing to different version of the website; a Flash site site for people who want to get the most out of my site and just a normal static HTML page for people on a dialup or hate Flash (there are people who think Flash is a disgrace you know).

Anyway, if someone can find a tutorial on how to make a Flash site, I would be more than happy.

I use Macromedia's Dev Net the most. All of Macromedia's applications are located here.

It's not really that hard... if you don't want any animation running in the background, you can always just use keyframes for every frame and have the links use "goto:", or you could have animations by having short segments and adding them as objects, or by simply putting them on different layers. Just remember that keyframes are crucial in webpages.

In the book I bought it explains it very well in a preloading tutorial.

Go here for some source files. - http://www.newriders.com/content/images/0735711607/cd-rom_Fixes/03_Preloading.zip

That has a website in the zip. For some strange reason you will need to put the assets folder into the production folder to get the wallapeper section to work.

Enjoy ! - Oh yeh it involves extensive Actionscript!

Or an easier way is put a new page in a new scene and use the goto command as rjensen11 mentioned.

I can't find any tutorials on building a Flash website at any of those sites Viper.

That zip doesn't do much for me Alpha...

You don't look hard enough. You don't BUILD a website using Flash. You make animations in Flash that you put into a website's HTML. So, you have to look for animation tutorials.

Eddy, follow the tutorials included with Flash and then come back once you've finished them.
