I am wanting to build a flash program to put on my wife's alphabet photography website, and don't know where to start. I need the program to allow customers to see a preview of exactly how their picture will look, and let them choose different comboinations of pictures until they find what they want.I am very competent on computers, I help build clinical documentation systems, but I just don't work on coding. I will attach a link so you can see exactly what I am wanting.
Also, what would be the most cost effective way to create this? I was thinking about getting KoolMoves, but didn't know if it could handle this.
Lastly, if anybody knows of a tutorial on something similar to this, I would greatly appreciate it!

I'll share with this group the answer posted on FlashKit:
All most all Web applications that allow the viewer to interact with what's on the page as shown in your example, requires some type of server side scripting.
So Flash or KoolMoves may only contribute a partial solution. The really important part will be the server side component.
PHP may be the language to use, but you'll still have to come up with the scripting code to accomplish what's needed. Here's a link to a starter tut:

Sorry I couldn't be more exact, but I don't think Flash or KoolMoves alone will do the job.

Thanks for updating...I found a different program, would this be easier to create?

Looks like that might be just what you are looking for.
If at all possible do a trial download or at least as much testing as you can before you purchase.

It won't let me purchase, it is on another company's site. I emailed them on where they got it but haven't gotten a response. Just wondering how easy this would be to create or what this would be named if it were a pre-made plug-in.
