If you feel it's out of line, then please feel free to PM me with your complaints...let's keep it out of the forums, okay?

Thanks for taking a look, at least.

Hey, Saviour...

I think that's a great idea...I'm more than willing to help a friend in need.  Just don't tell anyone you know me, okay?

[Saviour]

Too late, Glitch.  Cat's already out of the bag, my friend.

Hey Saviour can I be a moderator?

Hey Saviour can I be a moderator?

Wow, no beating around the bush.


Is it absolutely necessary to use Wink? I have Flash 8 and have made (so far) 3 fairly long (if completely ridiculous) animations, and basic ActionScript (for making things such as buttons to continue to the next frame, play, etc.)

Also another plus- It's likely to be possible to have more control over size with it as well, fewer bitmaps, I suppose.


What kind of tutorials are you looking for? I could make a simple one that describes the parts of an application window or something.

BC_Programmer...

I'd like to keep the flash tutorials consistent...using Glitch as sort of a "guide" through the whole thing.  Keeping them consistent, informative and as quick as possible to load are my main concerns.

drmsucks has already volunteered to critique them...while I value everyone's opinion.  So, if anyone wants to critique them...by all means.

They'll be slow in coming...so...just bear with me, as I slowly add more for Vista.  Hopefully I can get someone who has XP installed on their system to aid.  Calum may be doing that end for me.

I still look forward to anyone who'd like to help.

computerruler...

Thanks, anyway.

If you knew anything about the Saviour PC™ site, you would know that asking within a thread is the wrong approach.  Get to know the site...before you ask that sort of question...and at Saviour PC™...requesting to apply for a role is handled through one's profile on the main site...not within the forums.

However...since you've brought it up...and to be as polite as I possibly can...my answer is....a resounding "no, thank you".

I'll experiment in Flash, see if I can get something consistent with Wink's output. If not or it's too much work- I'll just use wink.


What kind of tutorials did you want for XP? Ones that correspond with your Vista tutorials, I suppose?

[Saviour]

Basically...anything that has to do with the use of XP...keeping it simple...like How-Tos.

Wink is easy to use...it actually takes screenshots whenever you click or use the keyboard.  As soon as you finish the capture...and render the frames...it's all good to go...all you have to do is add the images you want...along with the text...then the green navigation arrows.

It will save the swf...the js file...the html file...and also the wink file.  Pretty handy.  Just takes some getting used to.  Especially when it comes to removing/adding frames...or just resizing them.

Let me know if you need some images of Glitch...and I'll send them to you via the email you used when you registered on my forum.

Which reminds me...I have to send them to quaxo...

[BC_Programmer]

wow, Wink really is easy to use- I had to clean up my desktop (and reduce the resolution).


So far I've got it captured-it's the same "changing the desktop background", just like in yours, except in XP. Which kind of makes it silly, but some people are new to XP, and computers in general, so it doesn't hurt.


If you could send me the same image you used in the first tutorial, that would be ideal.

I'll finish it up, and add the image in later

Then I can start making other tuts as well!

[Saviour]

You got it...thanks!

Looks like it's time to install Wink.

I would gladly help out, Saviour.
