Description
More and more people enjoy maintaining an online web presence in the form of personal web, blogs, wikis or online communities. They enjoy creating their own personal web space and virtual "paradise". Many young people prefer using Flash to create a more "fun" and attractive multimedia experience for visitors to their site. Unfortunately using Adobe's Flash authoring software to create a Flash-based website is not easy at all.For traditional HTML web pages, there are already a lot of easy-to-use tools in the market, e.g. Adobe Dreamweaver and Microsoft Frontpage. For Flash, Adobe Flash is the only authoring choice. Unfortunately, Adobe Flash only allows users to create animation easily. If you want to use Adobe Flash to create a website, a large amount of additional programming effort will be needed. Maintenance is also another major obstacle that discourages people from using Flash.Our idea FLABER is a Flash-based Rich Internet Application which tackles these disadvantages in developing Flash-based website. Using simple drag-and-drop, users can easily create any website without programming. Object resize, rotate, overlap, alpha transparency and transition effects can be intuitively done with a few mouse clicks. Imagination will no longer be bounded by technology. FLABER is a cross-platform software that can operate under different operating system, web browsers and even mobile devices.Detail(s)
