Flash Lesson 2

I struggled tonight, I just got totally lost by the end of the class.

Despite this there are positives. The more I do the better I will be, I've got to go through the pain barrier first though.

And at least I don't feel as disheartened as I did after similar 'lost' nights with Dreamweaver and Photoshop, I know that with patient application I'll get there.

We started with a recap of last week's work, making an image form in fragments when the mouse is put over it. I managed to do this with help from Jamie.

I got lost thereafter though. I couldn't manage to implement the time-saving process in applying this to other pix.

And I found the work on how to create a "gallery in a movie clip" bewildering. My mind just went blank, I didn't know where to start despite the clarity of Jamie's teaching. Oh well, sometimes this happens.

I just need to immerse myself in Flash between now and next week. Stay positive.

(Incidentally, there was a fabulous atmosphere tonight, tremendous vibes, the spring sunshine made everyone seemingly happy and good looking which was lovely).
