Description
THIS IS NOT A FLASH! This only is a picture i made in Photoshop to have some vision of how the real flash might look like.
About this project:
Some long time ago I made palette for colors of my characters. Later i decided to make a blank template version for other people too, so i made it as a PSD and PNG version:
But just a day ago i got an idea.. Why not to just make this easier and create it in a FLAHS version? Because there are people that have problem with making colors less bright or creating its shadow and so on. Lower in functions you will find out what all would get easier with this flash
Also i always try to make original things and im not sure, but i think that nobody else ever made something like this before? At least not from what i heard. So i hope this will be first and useful when its done.
Functions:
On the left side there is a panel, where you will be working with your palette. Above it there is a place where you can write name of your character. On the left side there you can write part of the body, that will contain the certain color. Above these, there is the ACTIVE/INACTIVE button telling you what palette youre working with at the moment.
On the end of the palette it tells you what color presents what, first is basic color, then two shadows, outline color and shine.
Next to the panel of palettes, there are squares with options. First one is preview of choosen row of colors.
Then there is an option of Auto shades. When it is ON, all you have to do is to hoover our cursor above some row of colors and click it to make it selected. Selected row will appear in a light square. Then you just choose a basic color and it will generate its two shadows, outline and shine color AUTHOMATICALLY! When the Auto shades is OFF, then, when you hoover your cursor above palette, every single color and its shades can be set by yourself.
Under it there is option Add palette. There you can choose number of how many palettes you want to create. In this picture it is set to TWO, and you can see two palettes there... They will be put under each other as a long panel, because when you save it as a panel, you can easily use this long saved picture put to side and it doesnt take so much work space you use for picture you work at.
Then there is option Add line... it adds more rows of colors. In this picture it is set to TEN and when you count how many lines/rows of colors there is, you will count ten as well..Just to show exactly how it works.
Last option there is Add/remove....there you can choose what all colors you want to have in each row of colors... right in the first one you can see that the shine color is mission, because in this setting it is turned off. this way you can set all other shades except of basic color because everything is build on basic colors.
Then on the right side there is the color picker, where you set the basic (or other) color(s). Under it on the right side there it shows a little preview of the choosen color, next to it there you also can put in the color code.
Then there is a button HELP, when you click it, there pops up a window explaining how it all works, jsut like how i write here, hehe.
In the end there is the SAVE IT button to wave the final palette picture, of course without showing things like that active/inactive buttons, squares around text and so on.
Button CLEAR will delete all actual palettes and sets it back to the basic mode, which is shown in this picture... this green.
And then the link to my profile will be clickable, hehe. But thats just a detail... all in all by this it is all explained and this is how the final work in this flash might look like:
Future:
I have no idea when the flash final version will be done. I'm still new to the Adobe Flash program. We study this program at school at the moment for a few months, but even that way i have a huge mess in it and i hardly catch up with it. But at least i know a few people that hopefully know this program still more than me and the last chance also is my teacher that teaches us to use this program, so with her help i might finish it sometime. But the exact day of when its done is still unknown, because it is a side work.
Plus i first would like to know your opinion on this and i also welcome all ideas about how to improve this
