  XIIIPreloader Help - Flash file preloader effect

This effectfull Flash Pre-loader was inspired by the XIII loading theme. It is used to load bigger SWF files and let the web page visitors look at a cool effect while doing so.

Colors

You can set the text and background colors. But note that the background color won't have any effect if you use a background image.

Prompt output

The set text prompt with selected font settings and color will be displayed at a random position. Then it's shades will be displayed, each moved to random offset from prior position.

Offset value

Maximum offset value (the maximum displacement of the text to the sides of the bounding box) ise set by the Offset parameter.

Background image

This effect also supports a background image. This will overwrite the background color.

Loading

Meanwhile the movie with the selected name will be loaded and displayed. Write the SWF file name for the file to load into the "load Clip" field. IMPORTANT NOTE! YOU MUST put the SWF file for the other Flash file into the SAME location as this SWF file, otherwise this preloader won't be able to find the movie and it will never load. DON'T put this file in another folder or directory.
