Are Flash sites particularly difficult to update compared to other sites?

Also, in my reasearch I came across this article it is called "Flash is Evil"!: http://www.dack.com/web/flash_evil.html Could someone please comment on the following comment, taken from the above URL: "I'm actually developing animation using Flash, but I definitely agree that Flash...

Hi, I am a graphic designer working primarily in print and am now making my first steps in web design. (actually my second, as I have made a very basic flash site many years ago) I am a bit uncertan as to how to approach web design as there are seemingly endless ways to build websites...

I want to allocate the "Tab" button as my key command for hiding all palettes in FH9 (as this is the command I use in Illustrator). But FH doesn't seem to let me use this particular key for a key command. Any ideas on how to get around this? Thanks.

Err, kids, sorry to rain on your parade, but I'm on Quark 4.1. No joy for table-makers then, huh?

Is there a feature or tool for creating tables in Quark? Up until this point I've been using the line tool to create grid etc, , surely there is a more efficient way of doing this. How do you make tables? Is it just easier to draw them as vectors (Illust/Freehand) and import the grid and then...

Thanks! for Mac users, the "right click" isn't necessary, just use a normal mouse click.

A friend mentioned somethng the other day about "PSB" for updating websites. Does anyone here know what he was talking about?

Regarding search engine spiders, I never knew that. Cheers! Thanks for the tips guy - keep them coming!

Thanks for your advice. If the Flash site only uses simple navigation/minimal animations, will it still necessarily take significantly longer to download? Also, with regards to updating a website, is one program better than the other? (primarily updating text content and perhaps a few...

This has remained one of the eternal mysteries of illustrator for me. If someone can answer this I'll be impressed! Whenever I convert a lower case "i" to outlines to try to colour the fill of the dot a different colour to the stem of the "i", illustrator changes the colour of both the dot and...

Thanks to both of you! I found both sets of tips to be useful, as I have used more cumbersome (and less accurate ways) to do the same things before. I've never even looked inside the menu on the Align palette before! Lo and behold - there is some helpful stuff in there!

I normally work in printed media, so please forgive me if this seems like a basic question. What are the primary advantages designing a site in DW has when compared to designing a site in Flash? Thanks in advance!

I know something like this be much better suited to a 3-D program but is it possible to do such a thing accurately in Illustrator? The image I have in my head is purely using black and white space, to cleverly create the illusion of depth. Could someone tell me if this is: A.) impossible...

Ouch! @ M Stringer. Out of curiosity, did you spend a lot of time redoing all of the pattern fills? Do you just mask them out to the shape which you require the pattern to fill? So I guess the verdict is: pattern swatch = pain. I thought something strange might happen with this feature. Can...

Further to that question, can anyone tell me if it is possible to edit and specify the point at which the pattern tiles meet? Thanks.

Hey vanjohn, there's a button to the left of the "A" button which you might also find useful. ;)

Hi, I was just wondering if anyone on this forum has used pattern fills/swatches in Illustrator and gone to press. I'm hesitant to use this feature of the program because I'm uncertain as to how a RIP would interpret the vector data. Could someone please share their knowledge/experience with...

Does anyone have any ideas???? Thanks in advance.

Yeah, that's the conclusion I've come too as well. Pity there is not a faster way of doing it.
