PointRoll Banners for Caterpillar Progress

By Patrick | Published: June 2, 2008

As banners go, these ones I did to promote the Caterpillar Progress site are pretty cool. They are your typical annoying ones that open over page content when rolled over. I did 3 different sizes of the ad. And I used the PointRoll Flash API for tracking.

Caterpillar Progress Launches

By Patrick | Published: March 18, 2008

I’ve been working on this one for the last few months. This is my first use of SWFAddress which is pretty slick, though we’re having some issues with URL redirects and frames that we have to use in the live environment. It works great in my testing environment though! This as a deep and complicated [...]

Brookfield Zoo Explorer

By Patrick | Published: November 5, 2007

Here is a nice piece I’ve been working on at DK for the next version of the Brookfield Zoo’s site. The cool part is the scrolling zoo explorer. Click the “Zoo Explorer” tab at the top left and then play with the scrolling functionality at the bottom left. I had to use a combination of [...]

Scrollbar SmartClip

By Patrick | Published: March 1, 2001

I created this scrollbar back in the days of SmartClips, Flash’s precursor to Components (which actually made this obsolete a few months after creating it). I was successful in mimicking the Windows scrollbar exactly to use it in various Flash applications. Try adding and deleting text to see the scrollbar adjust itself. Also try using [...]

O.A.R. Risen Site

By Patrick | Published: February 25, 2001

Note: This is old stuff. This was my biggest project as a freelancer from back in 2001, and I think the site speaks for itself. Designed around the band’s story of a wanderer, the user wanders through the site to learn about the band, check tour dates and more, all with the ability to listen [...]
