I think I can do it with adobe flash?!

[nebulaoperator]

Hello everyone,

I want to make my before and after image changing from one to another. I think it is done with adobe flash but not sure. Can anyone tell me or link to quick tutorial please. Thank you.

yes you can do it with adobe flash . make a swf.file (a littel movieclip) and embed it into your website.

Thank you for help fellow retouchers. I have tried to upload photo script at deviantArt but any category I choose says you can't upload neither I am able to see where I could insert that script at model mayhem. Stuck a little bit.

Finally, I got it, after being struggling with it for many hours... I found this tutorial as the easiest one to follow, it is very simple and there's no need to write or copy codes... When you are ready to upload to DA, select the category Flash - Animations, upload your SWF, "and also the before and after jpg separate images", choose your after image as preview, and voila...

Hi Boneappetit,

Nice one. I think I asked that question on forum just at the right time. Two days and bingo. You got it. I just didn't have enough time for research so thank very much for sharing it. I will try to do it sometime this week.
One more question, do you know if this file to be only be uploaded as
swf.file?
Thank you so much!

Does anyone have any tutorials on how to make the flash animations of the before and after rollovers scale to whatever size monitor they are viewed on? Thanks a lot.

You are very welcome my friend... Well, at least uploading at DA, using this process (tutorial) you need to upload the swf, and the before and after images, because the swf is not an image file, is a movie clip that uses 2 (or more) images to switch between them.

Not sure if this answers your question thou...

It answers. so can I see the link to upload of yours?

Sure, this was my first, the 2 images are a little offset but I'll be working on that... I'm trying to fix a couple of my old works that i'll be uploading soon...

Thanks for sharing your work with us. Any idea how offset occurs ? shouldn't be difficult to cancel it. Will you try fading or multiply stage effect?
I am getting agitated

Yes, the thing is you need to make sure to get exactly the same size on both images, synchronizing them in the same location is not always possible, due to what kind of things you did at retouching, specially when you use liquify, change background, change her hair and so on... Maybe it can be done, but i'm new to Flash and honestly, I don't know how to use it. LOL the only thing I know so far is how to do this simple rollover. On the other hand, if you follow the tutorial, once you do it a couple of times, it is so easy and quick, although there are some different kinds of rollovers. I fixed a couple of my works, here is one of them... http://boneappetit.deviantart.com/#/d3j4aay

The first one you did has a very clear offset but that one seems to be spot on.
Nice retouch.

Nice retouch.

Thanx mate. Yes you are right, I already fixed that one, I'll be uploading it later. I'm doing others... I was making a mistake, trying to re-do, splitting the before after picture, but it has to be done using the original retouch...

I'll check it out
