Web Page Size

Just FYI:

Now days, most all computer users have a monitor that can display a resolution of 800 x 600 pixels or higher and a majority of them have 1024x768 or higher resolutions.  There are very few people who still use a 640 x 480 resolution screen.
Many Web designers design for a screen width of around 750 pixels.  This page size will fit on an 800 x 600 screen and allows a little extra room for borders.  This width will also work for all higher resolutions as there will just be a little more space between the edge of the Web page and the edge of the screen.
There is no "right or wrong" answer to the question.  You'll have to decide which size you want to design for, but the 750 to 800 pixel width page will fit onto the most screens without users having to scroll left and right, although a wider 1024 pixel page allows for more information.

Midterm Grades

Flash Tweening

Having trouble in class tonight with the tweening demo, I took a look online. CS4 tweening is different than CS3 tweening. If you are using your own version of Flash and it is CS3, what I covered a few weeks ago is accurate. If you are going to use the computers in the lab, that will be CS4 and there is new info on tweening - it has changed. Here is a simple video on the new tweening function. I hope this helps. If not, set up your layers and info and we can work on getting it to move as you desire in class next week.

Sorry for the troubles, I had no idea they were going to upgrade the computers or software until after the fact.
