    I am using Adobe Flash 9. I want to make a site with it, but I can't export it. It comes out in crap quality like this

    How can I make it look better?

    thanks,

    BP

    The posted link is redirecting to a web hosting service. I can see the home site no problem.

    Why are you using flash for this? Looks like something you could do easily with html + css...

    By looking between your main site and the Flash, the only thing I can think that you mean is the gradient lines showing, and possibly the font on HOME being too small to render fully? Though on your main site I also see gradient lines, just not as bad.

    Are you saying that while working in Flash on the .fla version, you don't see the gradient lines? And you are publishing as x pixels by x pixels? Maybe you could try by percent instead of by pixels (in the HTML folder tab under Publish Settings), and set scale to Exact Fit? Then try the other options (no scale) and maybe inder the "Flash" folder tab (also in Publish settings) take the check off Compress Movie. (This will of course make your huge Flash file even huger).

    Personally, I am finding myself more and more anti-Flash, especially Flash sites and Flash menus. I hope that, if you really want to stay on this course, that you add all the text for all the objects and animations etc so something other than
    ò§&ÌäàQÐ@é T”Ô`òIÉŸ2›Q@X„ŽI[`¨¶wÄ;VaK«äÇ5ãólæÛ”

    shows up for the rest of us who don't use Flash Player (usually for good reasons), use a text browser like Lynx, or are surfing your site with JAWS. It can be done, I've heard a Flash movie being described by a (imitation) screen reader, but I hear it's a lot of work : (

    Well, it looks pretty much perfect in the .fla.Thanks, I'll release a HTML and Flash version of the site once I get everything done. I prefer flash when viewing web pages (hate making them though). I'll try out everything you suggested when I get home.

    Thanks,

    BO

    Thats part of it yes. But a lot of it is IE compatibility issues.
