Web Page Creator

Posted onAuthorTruXter

Ok So I was sent to office depot 5 minutes before lunch started. I decided to swing by the burger place and get some lunch before I go in, and just waste an hour and 15 minutes for lunch instead of my regular hour lunch. I went in to Office depot and gathered all the things I needed into a buggy (office supply junk, paper pens toner ink) and walk in circles for a few minutes. While walking in circles and getting followed around by the depot snipers ( not sure they thought I was shop lifting, so i picked up stuff and would misplace it like crazy) I stumbled on the $9 software bin. While rooting around I saw a “buy one get one free” sign. So I decided to dig around and make sure I find something. Well I found a web page design thingy disk. I pretty much knew it would be crap because it’s price and the fact that the makers say nothing about it’s form or style. Like css,html javascript. Nothing just says something about templates.
The product is made by a company named Cosmi, the product name is “WEB PAGE CREATOR”. there is a circle stamp on the front with a symbol that says “#1” and some stuff in tiny freaking print though I can make out the work “productivity” . Well I scanned it with asquared,virscan.org, norton anti vir and found no reason to freak out.
So today I finally install the software. The actual software they are selling is all of about 10 megs of software, the rest, well, the rest is a 2002 version of open office.
The software they created (I think they created or just downloaded from some poor joke’s website) is just a shell script hand full of short cut links to open office items but named differently in the program. Don’t worry, when the open office items open up they do show their names at the top of the program’s window.
Well My True honest opinion, as far as web design goes, you can do everything this software bundle can do, Simply by using netscape navigator 7.2 suite edition. ns 7.2 suite comes with a program called “composer” and well, you can do the whole “what you see is what you get” web design part of using a program just like you can with cosmi’s erm, uh, java sun system’s? open office program.
plus netscape 7.2 s does not come with netzero crapware like this program does..

My call?
Walk past this thing, sure waste of ten bucks.

Makeshift Flash Mod

Posted onAuthorTruXter

I was asked to work on site for a company that specializes in loans and stuff, industrial loans and business loans and so on. They paid me very well for doing this.

I did this whole thing and they later sent me an intro they wanted added into the flash file, Heck I had never worked with flash before I even began to try and work on this site, so bare with me for my lack of knowledge of dreamweaver and or what ever that cs3 program was I was using to edit the .fla files with. If you go to starlitefundinginc.com you will see that I did the intro as they requested. If you look closely you will see that i used an iframe to set the size of the flash file and I believe I used to tables to keep it centered. Maybe not. But after the first flash file runs it’s full term I set the html page it was on to forward to the next page after 27 seconds. With using the Iframe the site stays focused on the main address in the address bar, This was simple because the page does not actually change, So I only had to do one <title></title> in the html listingteh many types of loans and funding they provide. The owners of that company did not want any text on the page, even though I tried what I could to explain how search engines  work these days.

What I am wondering is if there is way that I can some how combine two flash files  and make it one file? Is this even neccessary? Would it be much of a hassle for me to squish em both together ?

I mean they get plenty of people looking to check out the site and stuff for corperate loans and stuff or what ever they are looking for.  I mean what they are looking for is beyond my knowledge or ability to care greater than assumption. I do see hits on the site so I am not sure how the search engines are ranking this site, I never find it in searches unless I do a specified search for the company. I never seem to find it under any form of loan I try.

If anyone knows a way of putting something in the html to increase hits to that site hit me up with a tip or something, or if anyone knows how to smoosh the two swf files into or if it is even worth the bother hit me up. I kind of figgured that would be a huge wonkin file and no one would actually sit and wait while that loaded.but hit me up if you have a clue.

Really if I had better knowledge of adobe products I probably would have made a ton more money on this project, But my knowledge of dreamweaver is quite limited. The site does not make me happy. I know it isn’t my site and the owners of the company seemed happy with it, I just wish I could have done a little bit better.
