**Please note that this was a quick draft. Your appearance results do not have to turn out like mine.
Step 1: Open your Micromedia Flash Program. It should look like mine. Then go to Flash Document.
Step 2: Take your base for your button. I will just use a rectangle.
Step 3: Take your Selection Tool.
-Right Click. And go to Convert to Symbol.
-Name it whatever you want, And set the behavior to Button. Then click Okay.
Step 4: Double Click your symbol, And on your timeline at the top, you'll see Up Over Down and Hit.
-Right click on those and Insert Keyframe for all of them.
Step 5: Go back to your Over state and Click on what you want to use to create your 'Hover'. I will use a simple Pencil.
- Draw whatever you want or make whatever you want your Hover to look like.
Step 6: Click on your Down state. Take whatever tool you want to use to make your Click look like. I will use a Paintbucket tool and fill it green.
Step 7: After you're done, Go to Control, Test movie to see what it looks like.
- My Hover
- My Click
When you're done with that, go to File, Export, Export Movie. Then you can upload it with whatever server you want and put it on your site.
