Hey all

I just wanted feedback on my schools campus map. A friend of mine made his version using the Google API, so I got inspired to try handcoding it from scratch in flash. Surprisingly I did this in 3 days, and I think it's one of my coolest flash works. I'mm still building on it, so more features should be coming over time.

Have a look at http://fd.anifstudios.com

nice! good job:thumb: But the release notes, you don't need to have the "x-close-button" if you can click anywhere to close do you?

Thanks for the replies. As for the release notes...i really debated that one. The problem, u know how users are, they might not realize clicking anywhere will close it, so they might just sit there. I figure, i'll just put the "x" anyway to signal that you can close it, even though clicking anywhere will do the job.

As for the font, I might consider changing it, I just picked something at random really.

I really thought about the Google earth images, especially after my friend mentioned it will be pretty cool to add that as a feature. I guess I just haven't looked into how hard/easy it will be for me to accomplish that. But it's one of the features I keep in mind for future updates.

Thanks for the feedback!

I have updated the map...and Dizzy, I fixed the close button, it now does what it should do, instead of clicking the whole box. Anoga, I still have the font change in mind too, just looking for a suitable one I guess.

Worked pretty good, I might suggest some different icons when dragging?

hey pixel, any suggestions for the cursor when you drag?...I know the one on there right now is pretty boring.
