And on another note, I've tried to take parts of songs and put them into movies, but the song still ends up playing through the entire movie. Any help?

There are two ways.
Go to FILE > PUBLISH SETTINGS and put the quality down. Or right click on individual sound clips. Then turn the quality down :)

ITS A BOWL!
Not a pool!!!!!
Aghhh lol.

TxM is doing great so far, keep it up then when its done then help people. Otherwise it'll never get done.

The problem with trace bitmap is that it adds alot of detail to your movie making it big file size :)

Now this is the thing I try to copy paste a picture from the good ol' Paint program but there is always this white shit around it... I want it to go away so the sprite i want in question is left! ANyone have ideas i have recieved many but there not quite working out for me? I'm open to many suggeestions in this time of need!

Ok heres what ya do to get rid of the annoying white bit.
Make a square or somehting with no fill. THen select fill and go to WINDOWS > PANELS > FILL
Then select bitmap. Fill the square with ur bitmap. Then re size it etc. Then draw around it with the line tool or whatever. Then make sure all the lines conect and then select the pieces of white bit that you don't want (its outside the border line) and delete them.
There ya go.
I hope this helped.
If it doesn't then IM me on AIM HMJHarrington

in a button i have the tell target code for a movie clip to go to and play frame 2. on frame 3 of this clip is the code:

trace (_root.s);

heres the fucked up part, when the button does the tell target code on release (clicking the button) it works perfectly, but when i switch it to happen on keypress "j" it doesn't work. it traces the value of _root.s as 0 even if the right key is down. i have no clue why just changing the "on" indication of a button would mess it all up. any help would be greatfully appreciated...maybe someone has had this problem before.

oh btw if you don't know what tracing does it just has a message box pop up to tell something, in this case the value of _root.s its a debugging tool

Change the script to this

on (release, keyPress "J") {
gotoAndPlay (2);
}

Should work :)

Try submitting when Newgrounds isn't that busy.
If that does not help then contact your ISP (internet service provided)

Ok well i have nothing else to do so here goes.
HTML in flash isn't that worth it but it is possible.
Make a new text field and select the following:
DYNAMIC,
MULTILINE,
THEN ON THE RIGHT CLICK "HTML"
Then name it "Italic" in the variable name.
Then create a new layer.
Put these actions in the frame actions.

italic = "This is some italic text inside a textfield using HTML";

Then test your movie and you will have italic text in your text field. You can also change it to BOLD links, all sorts. Just mess around. :-)

BUGGER. the brackets didn't work. Put this tag at the end of the text. and this tag at the beginning. I did it the wrong way round otherwise the BBS would of picked it up as HTML.
I hope i was of some help

AHGGGGGG, stupid BBS. Just put the italic tags which are shown at the side. Then close it with </
Oh boy i am never doing this again.
