Design
This site is 100% Flash. All the functions and animations were hand coded in Actionscript 3.0. Due to the volume of information, the site structure uses external SWF files called into the main file. By modularizing the site, loading times are reduced and the site is able to expand as new photos or other content is added. If a section needs to be modified or deleted, the rest of the site remains intact. New content can be swapped out easily without effecting the existing content library by pointing a link to the new SWF file.
The Photo galleries leverage an external XML file to access and display the thumbnails, main photos and product titles in the drop down menu. When new photos are introduced, all the elements are dynamically updated inside the Flash File when the new content nodes are added to XML file. This significantly reduces content update time and maintenance.
