The paper glider is simply great!

I played with your idea a bit and created an animated version of a glider doing a loop. The key to covering up for a quick and dirty set of poorly laid out frames in the animation is to use a drop shadow that draws the viewer’s attention at least as much as the glider does.

Thanks for the excellent tutorials.

cloddo,

Glad you liked it. The theme is called Shiki Colors I think. I posted about it along with the GDM login theme and an icon theme to go with it as well over on the linux outlaws podcast forum. The link to the post is: http://bit.ly/OtTM

Let me know if you need any other info on it.

Another Master Class

I am glad you mentioned the bit about duplicating for a new Number there by isolating the gradient effect…
That was an error I made frequently which that was melting my head… resolved

p.s. Do the tea cup and saucer please…

@heathenx do you run 64bit or 32bit? I’m running 64bit. Anyways, downloaded the avi-file instead! Maybe it’s time to test the 64bit flash beta for the next video?

@Daverix

Seems to be working fine for me. I’m running Ubuntu Intrepid with Flash 10.0r15 in FF 3.0.5. The video seems to chew up about 35% of my CPU when streaming.

Anyone got trouble with with this video and flash? For me the flash video eats up all my RAM! There’s a serious leak in flash for Ubuntu or something!

Wow. Cool tutorial. Some might say why draw a light switch? The subject isn\’t important, it\’s the techniques used to reach the conclusion which are excellent for a novice like me. Also getting my daughter to view your screencasts. Keep up the good work.

@Jaws – I have no idea what you’re talking about.. I mean if you’ll just refresh the page you’ll see that you were mistaken…

Excellent screencast. I’m rather fond of vector art of real-life objects such as this.

Oh…superb choice of intro song.

HeathenX is thanking HeathenX? Sounds like Richard is doing the screencast to me.

Cheers
