An old concept brought back to life with new vigor.

We call it FSO's, Flash Sprite Overlays.

FSO's is the placement of Flash swf files over exsisting
HTML web page to give them new life. We have been making these for 6 months now and having a lot of fun doing them.

The only problem is they don't work in Netscape or MAC IE.
Neither support transparencies.

Here are a few examples:

Yah, I've seen those and didn't know what they're called...

I was at weather.com and a bear walked across the screen, that's was my first encounter...haha. But, it was more 3D...so that was cool.

Anyways, those were funny, hehe...great job...

Thanks,

We believe FSO's will become a natural part of web design very soon.

Any other Comments?

Yahoo has been using these to advertise for a few months, they are neat to see but pretty annoying when the close option is not presented well on a static overlay.

I don't know how much I like the sprite overlays...(I've killed Bonzai Buddy more times than I can count for the same reason)...but maybe they have other uses...I DID, however, find myself lingering around on the developingwebs.net site!
