[Swftools-common] An eCard created using swfc

[Kevin Veroneau]

Hello to the mailinglist again,

  I noticed that someone just submitted a question about .sc files and swfc 
code examples.  Well, here is the first one I'll share.  May I just warn you, 
it's a tad messy.  I sort of got this eCard to my mother a tad late on her 
birthday and didn't have time to fully comment the source code.  If anyone 
has any questions about it, feel free to ask.

  Feel free to use any bits of this code you want, since it's posted here, 
it's offically GPL'd.

  You can view the running version on this website:
http://www.unixboy666.com/cards/mother.php?card=mom-bday-2007

  This is also a great example on how to implement a custom cursor, use sound, 
add SVG graphics, use gradients, use the blur filter, create buttons, and 
control movieclips.  It says it was created using Linux, as I compiled and 
used swftools under my Debian distribution.

  The cursor was drawn using the Inkscape SVG program.

Here is the code:

.flash filename="mom-bday-2007.swf" bbox=640x480 version=8 compress
.sound startup "../KDE_Startup.wav"
.sound poem "../mom-bday-peom.wav"
.font arial "fonts/Arial.swf"
.font f1 "fonts/Wargames.swf"
.font f2 "fonts/Swift.swf"
.blur blurit blur=100 passes=2
.blur unblurit blur=0 passes=2
# My Flash heartbeat
