The stress has begun. On saying that, things have gone reasonably well for me on day one of creating the showcase in Flash. What's been the main issue is time. I have only got as far as creating a preloader and creating buttons for the 'homepage', and it's taken me nearly 3 and a half hours!

I'm not even sure if the preloader works because the document seems to just load on frame 2 everytime I test it, i think it might be because there is so little information for the preloader to load its loaded and gone in an instance. If that is the case then hopefully we'll see if it works by the time I have added videos.

I have been browsing tutorials most of the time, only finding the preloader one most helpful. I sort of found out on my own how to made the buttons work and they do so as I intended which I am very pleased with.

Here are two screenshots of my days work:





In my next session I am to begin importing videos, pictures and music onto the frames which the labelled buttons lead to.
