    Newbie website help?

    I am trying to change the name shown in flash on this website, but it is in bitmap form. It came with a psd file that I was able to edit, but it makes no changes to the site when uploaded. the site can be viewed at southerflaircateringdotcom


    It came with four folders: flash, fonts, psd, html, the psd contains a single psd file that i can edit. But when uploading that file, it does not effect the site at all.

    The download is here http://www.freeflashtemplates.com/template-005/

    How can I edit the name grill house restaurant???

    you don't really understand how any of this works do you?

    ok allow me to be of some assistance and explain. basically when this person made his site he would of started out by drawing it in photoshop. when he had it the way he wanted he saved it. then he opened flash and made a new file, imported the psd file.

    importing basically just gives you a copy of the graphics in your flash file. then he would have sorted and organized everything and built the site from there.

    now nowing that can you see why updating the psd did nothing to the fla file? its because he imported the psd file into his pla giving him a copy of the graphics. so in other words if you want to change how the site looks you must change the graphics in the fla file.

    if you want to save the changes you made in photoshop out as an image and import that intoflash to replace the old graphic hen that would work just fine.

    if you want people to see your changes online you need to update the files online as well so everyone can see them.

    so hopefully this post has been helpful.

    maybe its just me but i didn't understand that post ata ll. didn't make sense in any way, shape or form.

    you really need to write in complete sentences. i have a 6 year old sister just started school and even at that age writing or even speaking like that is not acceptable.
