Finally Done!!!!!

Here is the final Flash build for Master Joe's Sushi .   I took a lot of the classes suggestions during the mid term review and put them in effect. My biggest challenge was coming up with something to do with the button feature. I decided to do a roll over button where the piece of the roll would light up. I liked the way it came out. Next I had a ugly title header that was basically the logo plopped on to the page. After playing with it for awhile and taking Josephs suggestion I made a kind of water mark. I tried having one big one or a bunch of little ones in a pattern. I asked a couple people and the big logo in the corner came out to look the best. I made a better looking text for the top of the frame in photo shop and dropped it on as a png. I think it has a better look. Then I got rid of all the ugly brown borders I had and replaced them with a bamboo mat image with a drop shadow as suggested. I think the effect came out really well after I dropped the opacity down a bit. For the pop up windows I felt the transitions where a bit too fast and rough. I didn't want to redo the whole thing because each window is on one frame, so I added in some AS code to make a alpha fade in. I removed the ugly black box that was on the lower half by making a mask of the top half and flipping it. Finally instead of publishing it in flash , I added the swf to a HTML page in Dream weaver and centered it and added some background color with some css. I have been taking the CSS w3schools classes because I think that is a real weakness of mine but im learning a bit more with every site I do. All and all I think it came out really well once I added the suggestions given to me. I will be working on more sites really soon,
