Reviews for "The Big Fat Tutorial"

wow

Great tutorial. I never thought those effects were possible in flash; every time i try to use the gradiant it looks like crap.

I loved how it wasn't just a plain tutorial with just text for people to read and follow, you added in your own touches for some humor and as a way to add life to each lesson.

Everything was nice and clean looking, and all the tutorials went into some great depth to explain the steps of each technique.

The only (VERY minor) problem i had with it was the music loops. They were pretty short, and so varied that there were only one or two that i actually didn't mind listening to. So they got repetitive. Of course i didn't have to listen to them, but i did say this was a very minor complaint.

Overall a top notch tutorial. I hope you come out with another one.

Gradients are sometimes a HUGE pain in the arse. It takes a lot of tweaking to get them to look right. I used to have a gradient ring pulsing on the main menu, but I cut it out just before I released it... I didn't think the menu needed anything else to cause hardware slowdown. I used the same ring in the credits tho... just tinted (you can see it on the sound test too).

I didn't think the music loops were bad... I used to have them playing sometimes... the Zelda one helped me stay focused when I was proofreading it...

LOVE it
