I'm very impressed as well LR. How much time did it take to make it?

Thanks for the kind comments!

It took me about 3 weeks; every nights from 7 to 12 and most weekends.
Creating the concept and the pictures with Photohop was the easiest. Assembling these elements with Flash, chains link by chain link was tedious, but fun. The hardest was programming the Action Script; there is not much needed here, but knowing were to insert it and creating functions that will work requires lots of research. The more than 2000 pages manuals for these 3 programs are not much help and boring. The best place to learn is on YouTube. I have a better understanding of the whole thing now and will be able to avoid time costly mistakes on future projects. I still have to add sound control and work on an idea to get the grenade warning color to intensify as you get closer to it with the mouse, and decrease as you move away 8) .

The sound effects trigger my Diablo2 addiction. Is that bad?

Anything we can do about making the sound optional? :)

Mute Button is in place.
If you do not see it, you should refresh your browser cache by clicking its Reload button while holding these three keys: Ctrl/Shift/Alt

The movie clip can be started with a default sound state=off, but this would defeat the purpose imo.

Coolio :) I kinda like the sound (so long as I'm not working with a client). I'll cross-post this back in the Website forum for Gus.

I've added a PLAY button and reduced its streaming size from 800x600 to 640x480 for convenience and also because I want to post a proposed =GC= Banner (top logo header) and we cannot have two pieces competing for the same speakers. k:

If you don't see the Play button, you may have had too much beer k:beer: , or the browser cache has suppressed the play button after first use. So, just refresh your browser cache by clicking its Reload button while holding these three keys: Ctrl/Shift/Alt k;-)
