PSP Movies
Can't get enough of the Joker? Well now all you PSP owners out there can have watch The Watering Can and Tubby Custard on the go. At the moment I'm linking to google videos (where both movies are on might i add :P) to download the movie files but because it renames the file annoyingly if you want the THM file (thumbnail of the movie) then you need to rename everything and that can be very annoying. Though the THM files are optional and the movie works just fine if you just download the movie file it looks alot better on your videos menu if you have the THM. So unless anyone can offer me some free webspace then I'm afraid this system will have to do.
For you Flash authors that want to know how come all the movieclips work on a video it's because they're not movieclips they're graphics. Sadly graphics don't support actionscript or (for Flash 8 users) filters unlike movieclips but if you plan to convert your movies to video format at a later stage then avoid using movieclips as much as possible so your not spending all Saturday converting all movieclips to graphics.

PS: Graphics can be previewed on the main timeline too :P
