Interface Programming 2 :: Week 12 :: Final Assignment Due: Week 16B Art Flash Web Site Assignment: create an advanced Flash web site. You can choose any site/client/idea that you want, however: your site must warrant the use of Flash versus HTML. In other words, if you ask yourself, “should this be an HTML site instead?” and the answer is “Yes” – then you should consider another idea. Your final site should include:  A custom preloader  An animated intro  Multiple pages/sections (minimum of 3)‏  Transitions between pages/sections  SWFObject and CSS for placing/publishing your flash into HTML NOTE: You can NOT do your own Flash portfolio site.
