gh6539 Posted February 2, 2011 Report Posted February 2, 2011 I have been working on a 3D Oriental Jewel Box in 3D as a Valentine for my wife and two versions have been created.A Poll has been created and I would appreciate your vote. Version 1 or Version 2.A note on the Japanese Characters and how they were made.The first problem to overcome was to translate English to JapaneseFortunately Google handled this very well: http://translate.google.com/#en|ja|1. Copied the Japanese character and pasted into Microsoft Word 2007 Wordart2. To save the Wordart to image3. Save Doc as a web page. Wordart is converted to a image in the folder you named the document.4. This is a PNG image and is transparent.Version 1 DownloadVersion 2 DownloadSize of both 3.23 MBLength 1Min 13 SecAspect Ratio 16:9Regards,George Quote
ContaxMan Posted February 3, 2011 Report Posted February 3, 2011 For me, it has to be the first version. I find the smooth, gentle motion more pleasing on the eye. By the way, on my machine the second version has a "glitch" at the start - the box jerks downwards.Roger. Quote
gh6539 Posted February 3, 2011 Author Report Posted February 3, 2011 Roger,Thanks for you input and vote. Your input has been most helpful,Regards,George Quote
Boogie Posted February 3, 2011 Report Posted February 3, 2011 GeorgeVersion 1 for me. Nice effect.I quite expected the "box" to start revolving in 3D with some more pictures! Perhaps version 3!!!Suggest you disable the cursor during show. - Project Options/Advanced/ "Hide mouse cursor during show"CheersBoogie Quote
gh6539 Posted February 3, 2011 Author Report Posted February 3, 2011 Boogie,Thanks for your input. I forgot about the cursor.George Quote
David Porter Posted February 3, 2011 Report Posted February 3, 2011 Hi George,My vote goes to number one although I think I would have preferred number two if the top lid kept a smooth run to the top before angling forward. Wasn't this how you had it? Quote
Ken Cox Posted February 3, 2011 Report Posted February 3, 2011 IMHO #1 is smooth#2 movements too rapid but has better featuresnever even noticed cursor, but then i always have it enabled c/w manual control - but that is just a habit/carryover from my beginnings in ver 3.4kenken Quote
gh6539 Posted February 3, 2011 Author Report Posted February 3, 2011 Mick,You are correct, that was the way I had Version 2. I have corrected this and replacement file loaded at the same link.Thanks for your input and all your help.Best wishes,George Quote
