One of this month's new Flash lessons is a classic navigation device. Yep, ye ol' scrolling thumbnail nav. This has actually been a past lesson on the site (dating back to Actionscript 1!) Among the improvements, this lesson teaches both Actionscript 2 and Actionscript 3, with a little flip flop back and forth between the two, so you Actionscript old-timers can see some of the noteable differences between the two languages.
Onto the cool features...
-You can dynamically load thumbnails and larger-sized images from external folders. Simply tell the Flash file how many files to load,(like thumbNum = 10), and a base file name (like "universe.jpg") then publish and upload
-This main Flash file can load images (JPG, PNG, GIF ) or other Flash files (.SWF)
-Thumbnail links can be setup to jump to another frame, another URL, or load larger images (see the example by visiting the site). Each thumbnail link can run a different Action. The example above only loads images, but you can program links to do anything.
-And of course, it's completely customizeable. Easily change thumb sizes, scrolling speed, mouse-over areas, colors, etc.
And as with all CartoonSmart tutorials, remember that you're buying training, not just a template. Granted, you of course get all the example .fla files included with the videos, but the main focus here should be the training. By the end of the videos you'll know exactly how to modify everything.
