Good

Was ok, kinda

agh

you have to keep in mind, a lot of ppl dont have mx 2004. i have plain mx. just remember that next time u make a tutorial...

that is pretty cool though.

Ok

The reason why everything looks jagged is because it's being displayed smaller than it is. If you put a bitmap (jpg or gif or bmp or tiff) in a flash movie, it needs to be its original size (100%). Resizing bitmaps doesn't work well in flash.

You can kind of get around this by editing the images in another program, then importing to flash.

Whoah, thanks! I actually didn't resize them. I think the newgrounds filesystem resized it. It may have detected that the screen params were too big, so it resized my movie. Now, in "Super Mac Bros!", I did resize the icon images, so that'll explain why those icons are so jagged.

Thanks again! This is an extremely helpful review!

It's an honor to be reviewed by you,

G-R-E-A-T !

Man, this is an awsome tutorial!
But it can be even better:explain the actionscript, not just only alow us to "copy-and-paste".

PD: Why was your flash layout so cool? in mine´s borders are gray.(I have Flash MX)

waste of time

Your time would have been better spent creating a txt version of how to do the right click thingy. Nothings clear, just seems to show you where to put your mouse!!

mac5 responds:

It may not have been to clear to you and I'm sorry. To most peope, visual presentations are more helpful than textual presentations. For you,that was not the case. I knew that I would have to make a visual tutorial because a textual tutorial would have been way too confusing for most people. I mean that from the second I thought about it, people would be messin' up all over the place. Also, nothing textual stays on Newgrounds. If it's just a screen with the words printed out, people wouldn't get it. That is, not counting you.

I do not believe it was a waste of time because it only took me about a day to make. I wanted to share this with Newgrounds because there has been a lot of talk on this at the BBS.

I hope that this response cleared a few things up and thanks for the review,

-James
