I want to display a logo on my website. I want the logo to cycle thru
pictures of players on the team. Similar to what is shown:
logo, picture1, logo, picture2, logo, picture3, logo, picture4....... logo,
picture15.

I'm pretty sure this can be done with the "Movie in Flash Format" component
but I can't figure out how to set it up. Any help in this matter is
appreciated.
 
FrontPage can't create movies in Flash format; it can
only display such movies you created in another editor,
such as Macromedia Flash.

Beats me; I've never done it. I do mostly Web-based business systems,
and animations are out of place there.

Lots of people create Flash movies, though. It can't be rocket
science.

I did a site for a client (drakeschools.com) using flash that I
created in Corel Rave 2 which is MUCH easier to work with than
Macromedia - MUCH! There's a free demo as well for the Corel 11
suite in which it is included.

If you look at the subject site, both the "filmstrip" and the
navigation buttons were done as flash components.
 
I believe I have Corel 11 (never used). I will look it over.
Your site looks very nice.
Thanks

Thank you. To be clear, drakeschools.com is a site that we designed
for a client in contrast to our site. Our (tqmcube) sites are quite
plain and are all password protected.

If you have any problems, feel free to use th address in the
signature (the reply address is a spam trap).

Try SwishMax (www.swishzone.com) which is a "dumbed down" Flash movie
creation tool -- it has a learning curve, however... but is easier and
cheaper than buying the full-fledged Flash MX. However, if you are wealthy
and have time to learn... go for the Macromedia full product.
 
Thanks for the input. I already used a GIF animator that was downloaded
free.
It worked real well. However, I will look at the site you recommended and
see how it works.
Thanks again.
