some times we didn’t save our work.

massage that flash out of memory which
enable us to insert new images. So we have
to borrow a laptop from the library to
complete the project.
• Also, it was not allow us to purplish the
project because the size of the file is big.

12. Conclusion/Recommendations
•The last but not least, from this project we learnt how to create an interactive
website using flash. Furthermore, we discovered new animations in the flash
that we apply it in our work. we recommended all flash users to save their work
consistently and have another copy of their work in case their laptop is damage.
Furthermore, avoid creating flash file more than 35 KB because it might not
publish. Additionally, we recommended to use flash software in order to create
website or videos because its powerful software that has several amazing
features. Certainly in our future career we will use flash to create videos,
presentations and websites in interactive and engaging ways.
