Last time Dav you said:

create all your buttons

>>>create a new movie clip and insert your main button in the first frame with the actions:

on rollover>>>go to and stop>>>"over"

>>>label frame1 "start" and label frame5 (or whatever) "over"

>>>put all your menu buttons in frame5 as well as a copy of your original button (or just extend the frames after your main button if its on its own layer).

>>>create a layer BELOW your buttons and draw in a rectangle to represent the rollout area, over which the manu will disappear again. Turn this rectangle into a button and give it the actions:

on rollover>>>>go to and stop>>>"start"

prob solved
dave

Now Since I'n not as good as the rest of you guys (& gals) but you said:
on rollover>>>go to and stop>>>"over"
Well do I put that in the button or on the movie or in the button in the movie??

Also you said:
>>>label frame1 "start" and label frame5 (or whatever) "over"
Well how do you label the frames?

One more thing... Please don't get mad.. But you said:
>>>create a layer BELOW your buttons and draw in a rectangle to represent the rollout area, over which the manu will disappear again. Turn this rectangle into a button and give it the actions:

on rollover>>>>go to and stop>>>"start"
Well, ummm... with this other button, I take it that it's invisible right?? And also that it only is there when the other buttons that are going to be fading in from the other buttons are present right????

I'm telling you that this is starting to get hard.... Working on all of these things at once Thanks again.....

Sam! As I said... Don't really know at what I'm supposed to be looking at! So many files!

The logo with the ripples! I've seen that quite a bit! If you keep it, I'd raise the ripple effect so you more of it!
Not enough is like too much!

Now if you're asking me about the menu.html...(about us, products, contact us & email)... Are you?
The background might be a little too electric for me(but who am I to judge!), but I like the buttons and the transitions. You might propose it to your clients, but maybe you should have a more conservative fallback option, you can also trow at them. Who knows, maybe they'd go for the Flashy one.

If I'm looking at the wrong thing... Please make it clear!

B-)

If you were talking about the testbuttons.fla... I guess Dave should get in on this!
I woudn't be doing it that way!

Bed time!

Well, Umm, What would you do and how would you do it? The ripple effect is something That I saw and thought would look pretty good... I'll rise the ripple up some, I do value your thoughts.... And yes the fla is what the thread is suppost to be... I know you have a shitty connection so I'm going to start a new tread so you won't have to have so much to download...... Also I threw in a star for you.... Thanks...

Old, did you make this site ?

if yes, congratulations. I loved the "surround" sound effect.
(and no, I'm not trying to get anywhere.... flattery wise that is ;-) )
Sam, I've checked your Menu. Personnally, I would have the navigation items (text) become clear at least on roll over. (by clear, I mean not fuzzy, not influenced by the ripple effect) but then, like Old would say, who am I to judge?

Thanks for your in put Patricia. I was just told by my boss to redo our site.

I'm just trying different thing trying to "flash it up" alittle. He doesn't want to do a lot and he wants to keep it as small as posible.... Want he wants is just something small that kindof catches your eye. Not to much. And he mainy wants to go with Satellite equipment, becuase every tom, dick & hairy is selling computer equipment. The Menu that's on the site is just something I saw on another site and was playing with. But what I think would be good is having the same type menu but have it in flash and have the buttons kindof fade out of the main buttons... But I'm just not getting just right (if you looked at the fla you might have laughed). I'm just trying different things and different ideas but my mind is just blank. And I'm no where as you as you guys & gals (Wish I was).

Hey Pat... Just out of curiosidy, do you and Dav have any plans (ie. marrige)? If so don't for us at the forum... I'm be glad to buy a ticket out there and back..... If not at least (if you don't mind) save some pictures and postem for us to see....
