Hey! I thought for my first post I should do something special. So I shall teach you people how to make a play button! Open up flash. Make a new document by clicking File --> New. Or you can just press Ctrl+N.. Now take out your RECTANGLE TOOL ( R ), OR CIRCLE TOOL (O), and make a shape. I'll make a circle, cause I'm cool like that... Write whatever you want in the button. I'm not gonna write anything for the sake of time. I recemmond writing: "Play"...

Now click on the SELECTION TOOL (V), and highlight the whole ball. Do this by clicking anywhere OUTSIDE the ball, and then dragging the box around the whole thing. Look:

YAY! So far so good! W00T! Okay. After you've selected the whole ball, press CTRL + F8. You should see some kind of box pop up. Make it a button, and name it whatever you want. Example:

Click OK. Yay. It's officially a button now. Okay, now all you gotta do it open up the ACTIONS PANEL (F9). Click the button. At the top of the actions panel, you should see Actions - Button. Copy and paste this code in the Actions Panel:

on (release) {
_root.play();
}

Huzzah. Your done. Wait for my other tutorials!

P.S. This is only a BEGINNER'S Tutorial. Wait for my Advanced Button Tutorial to see how to make cool stuff with the buttons, such as add sounds and color. MMKAY BYE!
