Flash not used in osC

[rommany]

Hi

 

Before i start, my last post about templates was removed from this forum ( no reason why was said but i guess for spam reasons and that's fine ) so i will make this clear i not on the market for a template from anyone. :thumbsup:

 

My question ive spoken to a few people and for some reason we can not have flash with osC, i find this strange, i know i can have an e-catalog but not flash buttons and so on... is there a reason why for this? :blink:

 

As always many thanks in advance

 

Regards

 

Ps

 

Again, spammers! even if a template can be made for osc with flash im not interested...

I don't know about templates, as I have never shopped for one. But I just did a search of the contributions on the keyword "flash" and it came back with 24 contributions including several that looked promising for someone wanting to incorporate flash into their osc store.

The buttons were designed for a client of ours, along with a few other sets

Many flash elements can be integrated into osc, simply go to contribs and type in "flash" in the search bar and you will find quite a few already up and running. I myself am trying to figure how to make a completely flash templated osc cart, but buttons, headers, modules and infoboxes HAVE been done - this is possible, but for some reason the information relating to the combination of osc and flash is extremely scarce on these forums, something I find very strange given the amount of discussion, the huge volume of threads and the popularity of flash as a medium on websites.....

Thanks mike and anthony, sometimes i write before i look, Ive now found loads about flash here... sorry about that : )

 

I think with most designers if you what a full up and running flash site it takes a long time to make all the components to work and that's why they stay away from it as cost would go though the roof.
