The answer is div tags! I practiced putting a picture into my web-page and found that if I inserted a div tag it didn't embed it far below where I needed to position it.
After experiencing some success with web-design, I decided to try my hand at Flash. I found some old tutorials from back when Flash used to be run by Macromedia. Some of the information carried over but I still muddled through the rest. My biggest problem was in making my text appear in a fade-up. I played with the alpha channels and key framed the text, even converted the text to a graphic symbol. Still, when it came time to do a motion tween, it wouldn't work. There's now this thing called "classic tween" which also didn't work for me. I plan to look up what it means. I'm only familiar with shape and motion tweens. I manually added keyframes all through the timeline and adjusted the alpha levels by 5 percent each time. It worked, but it took a really long time.
I would really like to learn how to apply attributes and how to animate them as well. I intend to do some research on this. The knowledge would be helpful with a Google Earth project I am doing in Digital Virtual Environments class. I would also like to be able to design a Flash button/logo for a possible website that I may include in my MRP. I think the Digital Teachers Network would be a good name. Now I just need to research whether or not the name is already being used and whether a domain name is open for it as well.
