Here's the background. I have a .swf file that I grabbed from Yahoo. The swf is a Yahoo avatar that a coworker is using in our fantasy football league. As a fun joke, I wanted to take his avatar and animate it.
The .swf is currently animated, but all it does it blink and move it's eyes. What is the best way to re-animate that?
I'm guessing that I'm going to have to physically draw the avatar frame by frame similar to a flipbook to get the desired animation. Then I would scan that into Illustrator and trace it; then import that into Flash. Is that the only way or is there another way that might be easier?
Adobe After Effects or Apple Motion

In my application when I click and hold down on a NSButton it stops the NSTimer loop that calls my drawRect. And I'm wondering why that is so, and how to prevent it.
I tried making my own subclass of NSButtonCell and overriding trackMouse:inRect:ofView:untilMouseUp: and the other subsequent tracking method associated with it. But that didn't help, though I still assume there's something in there I can do to prevent this.
I also tried running OpenGL on another thread but it still seems to get blocked when I hold down the button.

I am looking to sell my iPod Nano. It is the white 4GB version. I have had it since they started selling them, which I think is about 3 months or so. It comes with all the normal stuff. I will also be including an iPod Nano Dock.
The condition is ok, but it does suffer from scratches, as im sure you know about. I have had it since day one, and was unaware it would scratch so easily.
I think $200 would be a fair price. Unless your looking to trade a 5g iPod, I am looking to sell only. If you have any questions feel free. I'll try n post pictures later.
Please post pictures asap as I am interested. Thanks.

SOunds like HDD or RAM to me...got any mates you can borrow a known good 128MB DIMM from that you could pop in there just to prove RAM one way or the other, same for the HDD?
hey edesignuk, thank u so much for ur reply!
ya, do u think it's a RAM issue? i thought it might have to be cuz there's not much else it could be, but i didn't think it'd act the way it is... i have a dual 1.8 G5, but i dunno if i could use that RAM cuz it's PC3200, 400 MHZ.. it wouldn't work in the G4, right?
and what's "HDD"?

we had our first meetup tonight, trying to get either 1) local interest fired up toward an existing MUG, or 2) starting a new MUG here in town. 9 of us met tonight, and hopefully we'll blossom into something strong.
Anyone else already doing this?

how are you connected to the internet at the hospital? is it on the hospital wifi? They may by blocking certain access?
Yes on the hospital wifi network. Not sure why it would block just my business emails from coming through? I get my personal gmail emails just fine and like I said iChat and internet work normally.

Hello :) Right my boyfriend is having trouble with his Macbook.
It has been working fine and today, he pulled his power cable out and the Macbook turned off immediately. We plugged it back in and it says the battery is at 97% but again, turns off straight away if you unplug it.
After leaving it plugged in for a while, I have noticed it has stayed at 97% and it doesn't appear to be charging. Also, if the battery was 97% charged it should stay turned on when we unplug it but it of course isn't doing that.
If anyone knows what may be wrong or has any ideas on what we can try it would be really appreciated!

I uncommented the PHP line in httpd.conf file in Terminal, but when i go to http://localhost/xyz.php in my browser, it is still just printing my PHP code.
I turned web sharing on/off and restared my computer but PHP still does not work!!!:mad:

My old 400 tiBook, used to do that, it did it a little more theolder it got, the 17 does it a little, but with the auto-light adjuster it's always a little difficult to tell.
I'd say it was pretty normal.

So, I just got home from the St. Louis Apple Store with my brand-new 15" powerbook. Not sure if I count as a switcher or not, been using Macs for years at work but never have owned one. (Main desktop at home is an Athlon.)
Pretty sweet machine. I was torn between the 12 and 15, but I went with the 15. Looking at the machines in the store the 12 looked kind of cramped, the 15 screen huge in comparison.
Anyway I am one of those who has been waiting all summer to get a revved powerbook and thus have I become a macrumors reader. So all I can say is, aahhhhh.
Also this is my first real experience with osx, at work I am still stuck on 9.
A question: does airport extreme play pretty nicely with non-airport based wifi base stations? Anyone have a recommendation? I'll need something with an ethernet port for my desktop as well. (I'm a total newbie to wifi.)

Hi all
I am constructing a Web page in Dreamweaver CS4 and I have placed the banner and buttons on the side. How does one insert a scrolling text area in the centre of the page? For a noob like me, because when I try to do it it places one in between or under a button and not where I want it.
Thanks again for any input. :D

I'm assuming that you mean you just created a blank HTML page and then inserted a banner graphic and then some "buttons" without any CSS or table elements.
You will need either CSS or a Table to hold the banner and the buttons and the text area if you want to have anything other than just a stack of elements running down the left side of the page. Dreamweaver has a number of predefined templates you can play around with when you create a new page.
