Sup guys, my flash portfolio website is www.luciddesign.co.za, and I tend to do alot of marketing via facebook, trying to make it more viral. Now facebook has a Share button which you can drag into your browser to post a website or blog on your wall, its also at the bottom of most blogs, I'm sure you are familiar with it.

The shared content cosists of text and meta data, and an image. Being a flash ONLY site, my question is how do I get facebook to detect and pickup an image so that the facebook post has a thumbnail???

Thanks!

I'm making a flash portfolio for my design work, that opens in a browser in full screen.
I know how to do that, not a problem.

What I need to know is, how do I accommodate for different screen resolutions? I want the work to fill the screen, so how do I avoid pixelation? How do I prevent a discrepancy between users of 800x600 screens and 1680x1050 like myself?

What I really require by asking this, isn't specific actionscript, but rather tips on loading images for different resolutions. Thanks!

Hey there fellow designers/scripters/programmers, i'm hoping to learn some basic content management system stuff over a few weeks.

My aim is to know enough to create simple guestbook type functionality for websites for now. Can anyone please suggest a good cms to learn for beginners or a good tutorial.

Thanks in advance!

Do you know the code to do this? I'm unsure whether to use the onData function in flash or echo in php

Hey whatsup guys, I've created a flash mail form via actionscript and php. Everything works 100%, but my problem is that after you click send, i need the flash movie to check if the php sending was a success, so it can say "message sent" in the flash movie.

I'm loading variables using POST. Not many forums actually reply to php related posts so really any assistance is welcome, possibly even a link to an advanced actionscript help site would be cool too. Thanks!

Hi guys, I was at a bit of a dilemma when deciding where to post this, actionscript section or programming section, but seeing as its a bit of both....ng picks up double posting as spam.

So anyway, i've configured my mailer in AS 2 with Php, works beatifully. Except for two things. The mail I receive is from "anonymous" so a field in my php is wrong or not there at all.

Secondly, I need php to tell flash that the sending was a success, so gotoAndPlay the message sent frame. I tried using onData or onClipEvent(Data) but that doesnt work.

Thanks! Here is my php code

<?php
$to = "me@gmail.com";
$subject = $_POST['subject'];
$msg = $_POST['message'] . "\n" ." From: " . $_POST["email"];
$header = $_POST["name"];

mail($to, $subject, $msg, $header);
?>

Thanks for the help! Oh and Tim Wilson is exactly the guy that i got the idea from! However i didnt realize he has a tutorial of some sort to explain it. Ill navigate his page (i see he's updated it since the last time) and try to find it. Thanks alot Kayn

Hey wasup. I'm soon to be hosting my digital portfolio online, I just can't seem to find these two topics on the internet at all!

I need to add a box where visitors can leave a comment, VIA ACTIONSCRIPT WITHIN THE MOVIE, not wordpress etc outside of the flash. I've seen someone actually add a blog via xml and wordpress however i'm not picky, just an "Add Comment" block in the flash is sufficient.

Secondly, is there a script that can be executed IN FLASH to make the movie fullscreen within the browser? Press F11 now and you'll see what i mean. Again, i've seen this but cant seem to acquire the script. Thanks for reading, please help if you can.

I need a really cool load screen for my portfolio. I'm not talking about a fancy loading bar, i mean a cool idea. Its for my portfolio. The look is all techno futuristic, or at least a hint of it. Thanks!

Brilliant. Thanks!

How do some flash games keep count of scores while not connected to the internet, even after you close the game. When you restart, saved data remains, like indestructo tank keeps tracks of how many medals you have etc... I'm coding in AS2. Thanks!

PS: Play and review my game Brainwave if you like. I would like to add it to that once i've changed the gameplay based on the current reviews. Thanks again!

Thanks :) And does anybody know where i can get some samples too?

Hey guys, i need to create a cool website, i have that sorted. I need advice/tutorials on how to:

Allow visitors to participate in these blogs, maybe by registering first (just like how newgrounds is working now)

And thats about it for now. Thanks :)
