Jigsaw Pieces

[mumford]

Hi

I have been asked to create a load of jigsaw pices that need to be animated just simple teweens etc.

How would I go about drawing the pieces in flash, does anyone have any examples or templates, or how I would draw it in flash?

Help!!

Thanks

Hi,

What about drawing the images in Photoshop then importing them into the Flash Library - make sure to convert them to Movie symbols though.

If you want any more help just get back to me m8.

I thought of that but I'm not that great witht the pen tool in Photoshop!!!

You need to do it like you would do it in real life...

Have one big image and slice it up into smaller pieces. Then you worry about animation and effects.

i just need the pieces templates, its not going to be a jigsaw of a pic just coloured pieces

Flash MX comes with a jigsaw example, you may be able to check it out and work a few things out..
If you installed Flash MX using the default you should find it in this folder on your local system
C:\Program Files\Macromedia\Flash MX\Tutorials\ActionScript\My_Puzzle
