The art of window tinting has been popular world wide for as long as automobiles have existed. There are tons of reasons to tint your windows, and I am sure if you’re reading this you already have found a reason. There are a lot of sources out there to guide you in the right direction when choosing where to get your windows tinted and how much to pay. Please be aware of this advertising market field and compare it to the hands on relationship I am briefing you with right now.

The window tinting market is a boosting market field that holds lots of room for money to be made. The gold mine money making is made mainly in the professional tint shops. When charging a rough average of three hundred dollars to tint the windows of an average four door sedan, the accumulating income adds up very quickly. But this article isn’t written for these shop owners, it is written to the everyday paying customers of these shops. We loose or have lost money from these over charged shops, and it keeps occurring everyday.

The guide to saving that money is to learn how to window tint yourself by using free on line tutorials available on the web. Window tinting is an easy task that involves some patience and a little put forth effort. There are extremely good tutorials out there that walk you through every step of the installation process. The reason I’m spreading the word on these tutorials, is due to the fact that I have already wasted hundreds of dollars on paying to get windows tinted on numerous vehicles professionally. My mission is to spread the word, and help people save money.

When looking for a free online tutorial on how to window tint, there are certain aspects that need to be looked at and thought into a bit. Firstly, is the tutorial absolutely free? There are a lot of tricks out there to where you get half way through the tutorial and have to pay to finish it. This is what I like to call, a lure and hook method. I can imagine it works great but this is not quality free in which we are looking for. Secondly, does the tutorial use good images? Images are what holds a tutorial together. Without good images, the tutorial is not even worth using in my mind. Thirdly, are the directions written in good text quality and well thought out. It is tough to go step through step with poorly written instructions. This causes frustration and anger, and that obviously is not what we want to feed ourselves. Lastly, how well is the question and answer database? Usually good sites will have a forum or even a straight contact form directly created for answering questions. These are the foundations to a phenomenal free online tutorial.

Learning to window tint using free online tutorials is very effective and a huge money saver if you can find that quality free tutorial. For years, there have been tons of weak tutorials that fail to offer great service and efficiency. I have found that most lack effective hands on images to correlate with their tutorials. I wish you good luck in finding your way to getting your windows tinted, because I know that once you have them tinted you will be very satisfied. Window tinting is a great bonus to everyday living.

An array is basically a container for holding data, similar to the way a variable hold data. The difference is that an array can hold multiple pieces of data. The location of each piece of data is referred to as its index and will always fall in a specific sequence. These indexes are numbers sequentially and begin at zero. Since Flash numbers each piece of data within the array it is easy for the programmer to access a specific piece of data at any given time. In ActionScript you are not forced to contain one type of data in an array. This means that an array may contain a number in index 0, a name in index 1, and a movie clip in index 2. Creating an array is rather simple an only requires two steps. The first is to declare the array, second is to populate the array with data.

Flash Array

Animation with Arrays

To Create an array select the first key frame on the actions layer in the time line. Copy the sample code. This code is pretty straight forward. You are creating a variable called colorsArray, data typing it as an array and setting it equal to a new array and that is it for creating the array. To add data to the array copy and past the code from the next example. With this code your are simply calling the name of the array, then in between the braces you are telling flash what index of the array to use. Lastly you are telling flash to put something in the specified index.

var colorsArray:Array = new Array();
var colorsArray:Array = new Array();

A loop will be used to access the data contained within the array, but first create another array by coping the example code. This is the section that makes this an advanced Flash CS3 Tutorial. The first line is the Array that this Flash CS3 Tutorial is all about. Next, is the for loop that you should already understand. Inside the loop is where the fun begins. The for loop is actually creating circles with a color from the first array and adding them to the cirArray so they can be used later. First, a variable num is created and set to be a random number between 0 an 4, (see math tutorials) if you need a better understanding. Next, the code is creating a new Sprite (object) and the next three lines are using graphics properties to create a circle (see controlling graphics tutorial) inside the Sprite or cir variable.

var cirArray:Array = new Array();
for (var i:int = 0; i 520){
cirArray[i].x = -20
cirArray[i].y = Math.random()* 300
} else
cirArray[i].x +=15
}
};

Once again add the example code to the actions panel. The first line of code is a simple function that is being called by the start button. Next, is the for loop that moves through the array. You could change the number 15 to be the length of the array by replacing it with cirArray.lenght and it would automatically detect the length of the array. Next, is an if statement checks to see if the object contained with the specific index of the array is on the stage. If the object is on the stage it moves the object 15 pixels and if it is not on the stage is moves it to the other side of the stage and randomly changes the y position. This simple if statement is what makes the 15 simple circles seem to be an endless amount.

Press Control-Enter and test the movie, if all goes well you have a Flash CS3 Animation created with ActionScript Arrays

Last but definitely not the least, you can find paid tutorials, but these are once again targeted at a specific area, and don’t provide you with ample information about the field as a whole. For instance, if you look for website design training, you may get a chance to learn about WordPress or Joomla design in particular, but not a gist of website design as a whole. But, the free tuts will help you in obtaining a better understanding of the entire domain, that too totally free of cost!

The days of static web pages have almost gone, every one who has built their own site in basic HTML and CSS will have at some point wondered how to make their site into a dynamic site. By Dynamic I mean the site seems to have elements that update from databases like forums, comments box and news updates page.

Well if you want to add such qualities to your site and don’t want to become a programming wizard the good news is that PHP server side language has everything your looking for Its free, very easy to use, and works great with MYSQL which is a Database that is also free.

I have been working with PHP now for a couple of years and have only scratched the surface of its uses. But that doesn’t mean you will be learning PHP for years before you get a use out of it. I remember when I started with PHP in my first week I had built a website that connected to MYSQL database and also built an online calculator It’s really so easy you wont believe it.

New and old technologies that utilize PHP are spread across the web. Such as WordPress and CakePHP, are perfect examples of what can be achieved with PHP.

The only drawback that Is worth mentioning about PHP is that, as a programmer you can easily slip into bad habits, like mixing all your PHP with your HTML you may feel its the way to program in the early days but you’ll soon realize that scripts become unreadable and debugging will prove to be an absolute nightmare. So it is important to program with an organised system such as MVC which is basically a structured way of doing things that makes debugging your scripts a much more pleasant experience.

Oh! and good luck if you decide to learn PHP your going to enjoy it so much that you’ll probably find the hours flying past just make sure you make time for the other half.
