In this tutorial, we will build a simple FlashR slideshow that will display four images. To make this project reusable, we will save this fla as a template. We will first build a basic Flash slideshow fla that has four placeholder images such as image1, image2, image3 and image4. To use the template for any project, we can adjust the document size and replace the placeholder images with the ones supplied by the client. In preparation for this tutorial, you will need four images that have the same dimensions. For the example, I chose the dimensions 580 px by 200 px. If you would like to make the images, use the link below to read the PhotoshopR tutorial. Our first step is to build a simple text preloader. But Flash already has a preloader template that we can use.
