Once used on the Index page, this is a very complex (100k+ file) navigable movie. Clicking on the images takes you to their associated
web pages! For example, the Green Man takes you to the Arty Farty Page, and the photo of Aylesbury's tower takes you to the Aylesbury
with Bob and Curly Page. Simple to use, but complex to make, I promise you!
This original 'bottom-of-the-page' banner was replaced by a new version in December 2001.
The later version is just below, and features the sites new purple colour scheme which was
introduced around the same time. For the record, they're both edited versions of the 'main' navigation
animation from the Index page.
This is the second incarnation of the B.O.T.P banner, which was replaced by a third in
January 2002. I liked the 'shooting-gallery' feel to it, and created the new one
to make it even more so. The very latest version is at the very bottom of the page.
In mid December 2001 I revamped the key animation from the main Index page
(the original is still visible somewhere above) and this is the rather attractive
result. It's faster, tidier and more interactive, plus it has a cool '3D-effect' on my signature.
I had wanted to make it run in either direction, but found the routines for this a little tricky...
for now! I will be building a rotating graphic which you can spin and turn objects as a little project
in the near future, to cure my fear of these routines.
The above animation has a nice use of the mask/masked layer feature of Flash, I think. It was updated in February 2003 to have me say,
"Videoramascope" in an annoying voice.
-On Mouse Passover Only!
New in February 2002, this was in many ways my most ambitious animation to date.
Created for the main Index page, it has some fairly advanced (for me) features.
It was my first use of movie-clips, my first proper use of nested symbols and the first
time I'd had buttons acting correctly. Try pressing a label. Go for a ride.
-Mouseover.
At the end of February 2002 I decided I wanted to introduce a new random element
to my otherwise regimented (ha!) web pages. The small file above is it. It's basically
a button which cycles rapidly through links to all of my pages. Two clicks are never alike...
These were made to go at the top of my page for a NEW FEATURE feature from late March 2002.
These very simple animations uses Flash's built-in colour gradients to get the rainbow/coloured
effect. Clicking them will take you to my Cooking with Psychedelia Smith or Wickern Man pages,
or to a nice video clip.
-On Mouse Passover Only!
-On Mouse Passover Only!
These two animated(ish) links are from my Wheels of Fire
and Bond Buggery pages. They're basic, but they work well enough.
From my Web Design Business Pages - HTML version - this animation just requires a click to send me an e-mail.
A text-heavy scrolling box from my Main Index Page which will take you places at the click of a mouse button.
-On Mouse Passover Only!
Last, and yes, least, are these two small buttons from the main Index page, amongst other places.
One of them would take you to this very page, and the other one will transport you
to my Wheels of Fire Kitcar Page.
Th-th-th-that's all (for now) folks!
Except for these handy links to other Flash pages:
