Does anyone know a website that could teach me how to make animated buttons? Or someone give me a code and let me fill in the 'blanks'? I got my button which you can see here, http://www.geocities.com/lightening_larmore_racing/HMCbutton4.jpg Pretty nice, huh?

That's a button I did, now how do I get it to be animated like this one, http://www.vbodesigns.com/vbodesigf.gif Like how it rotates, but ONLY when someone hovers over it.

So anyone know a site that can help me do that? Or do you know a code and would be nice enough to post it and let me fill in the blanks?

Thanks!
Matt

geocities can't remote link therefore is a tweak, just put this in front of ur url http://invis.free.anonymizer.com/


so the url is: http://invis.free.anonymizer.com/http://www.geocities.com/lightening_larmore_racing/HMCbutton4.jpg

probably this animated button is made with some 3d programm, i guess swift 3d, that u can import to flash, and export as gif

hmm weird that link still don't works

you can make an animated button with Animation Shop too.

an animation is simply a bunch of images put after each other. So if you want the text to move you have to make every move in an image and then put them behind each other. The putting behind each other and save them as a .gif can be done with Animation Shop. So first you have to decide what to make. An example here:

You have button that says "hello it's me!" and you want the letters to go red after each other, but the background to stay the same. Then you make these images:

image 01: hello it's me!
image 02: hello it's me!
image 03: hello it's me!
image 04: hello it's me!
image 05: he/llo it's me!
image 06: hello it's me!
image 07: hello it's me!
image 08: hello it's me!
image 09: hello it's me!
image 10: hello it's me!
image 11: hello it's me!
image 12: hello it's me!

* he/ll has this / in it otherwise it would go ^^^^ and i couldn't make my example*

then in animation shop you can put them togther and the letters wil go red from "H" to the "!" after each other :)

animation shop can be downloaded from www.jasc.com (trial)

Here is the link, just take that space out http://www.geocities.com/ lightening_larmore_racing/HMCbutton4.jpg

MagicSun,

Please reread my text... I'm asking when some puts the mouse over the button it starts to rotate like http://www.vbodesigns.com/vbodesigf.gif (I KNOW THAT DOESN'T NEED MOUSEOVER)

Thanks
Matt

So...you dont want an animated .gif and you dont want a mouseover code? The only other way i can think of then is something in flash maybe?

it can be done with javascript but don't know how

Yes, I would like a mouse over code..
