This is my first attempt to use POV-generated images with Flash. It's the
opening page of my website at http://www.cloudinthesky.com/. I would
appreciate any comments or any problems anyone might have accessing the
page.
Thanks,
Stephen Klebs

Nice site. Although I can't access most of it using Opera. For example in
the
Pictures section, I can only view Skies. All of the others state that
"SimpleViewer requires the Flash Player", which I most assuredly have
installed. If I click on Abstractions I get a file-not-found error.
The seashells are truly amazing, but there is no link to the rest of the
site that I could discern.
Regarding the opening picture it seems to me that the marbles are less
realistic than the other items. Especially the purple/yellow and the
orange/blue ones.

I also have problems using Firefox.
Objects, animation, seashells, cloud store, pictures, links and small gestures
are OK.
Refraction tells me "SimpleViewer requires the Flash Player.", whitch is
installed and running (home page IS flash).
Abstraction return a "not found" error.

Thanks for the feedback. I wasn't able to test much of this site on Firefox
or Opera. I think I fixed the "Flash not installed" problem. IE requires
workarounds to avoid that annoying and useless "Click to run active
content" message and they have to be updated every so often. I replaced the
old "AC_RunActiveContent.js" script with "swfobject.js" which I use most of
the time. Hope it works.
I was especially curious if the opening page worked with the animated marble
since that requires Flash 8, which supports png transparency, and I don't
have any way of testing what it looks like with Flash 7 installed.
Thanks again,
Steve Klebs

Nope :-( Did not work, even after forcing a reload from the site.
I have the latest flash version: 9.x

It was some fun pushing that marble around, for a time.
Using Firefox 2.0.0.1

I can access the page OK, and its eye-candy through and through. Delicious!
Using IE7, the flash animations and controls work pretty much as expected
except that everything opens in a new and different tab, and that pretty
soon gets exhausting as the page titles all start with the same string. I
suggest judicious use of the target attribute of your hyperlinks.

Thanks for the feedback, DLM. I was aware that "everything opens in a new
and different tab" from the home page but I don't know a way of using a
"_self" hyperlink to stay in the same window as the opening Flash animation
without having to reopen the box everytime. I included menu bars on most
pages to avoid returning each time but it's still irritating.
This obviously isn't a Flash forum but if anyone knows of a way of
Actionscripting Flash to tell it to skip certain frames when someone
returns to a page, I would like to know. Mixing Flash with HTML gets
complicated (especially with all the annoying roadblocks Microsoft puts in
the way). HTML is easier but limited so that it's almost better to do
the whole site in Flash.

Rolling marble links to 'File Not Found'.
Everything else seems to work and looks nice.
