Project One: Infographic--the Death Star

Death Star is right! wow this is a pretty intense project.  Though I think I made some real progress today! I have done pretty much all of the external swfs except for 2 and the hard part I think will be tracing R2D2 and making the buttons on him function for the buttons of a photoalbum.  I need to make sure that they stand out so that people know there is something to do on that "slide".  Also Im having trouble getting the fonts to show up and not revert to a default.  I saved some as TLF but it didn't work.  For some of the other files the TLF showed up but for others I ended up breaking them apart and converting them to graphic symbols and it worked.  I don't know what that is all about?.  So, so far it has been kind of rough but I am getting there and all I need to do is figure out how to externally load all of the files in to the main file and make them slide like an accordion, but I figure it has to be similar to the timeline action-script so it cant be too bad.  Also I need to figure out about video content for an external video.  I don't have any videos of Star Wars on my own computer and thought that I could link it somehow to YouTube but that didn't work  :(  i might just have to come up with a new idea for that file altogether.
