Ok, I dont want to re-create the effect exactly, not even closely.  What I want to know how to do is the effect.  How does the symbol go to the moused overed button??  What i mean is it moves from button to button dynamically and I have no idea how to do that.  

There, i cant explain things very well, thanks in advance.

Put this on your movieclip:

onClipEvent (load) {
speed = 5;
}
onClipEvent (enterFrame) {
_x += (_root.xArea-_x)/speed;
_y += (_root.yArea-_y)/speed;
}

And This on your Button:

on (rollOver) {
_root.xArea=100;
_root.yArea=100;
}

wow that's cool!  i just finished a page (not in flash, mind you...) that is a minimalist-type design (which i think is really cool, and would look even cooler in flash!), but the 'slogan/motto' is awfully close to Josh's 'plain and simple.' i didnt see your site before this, and my 'phrase' is 'pure and simple.' oops :) hope you don't see this as treading on your toes.

now onto the flash:
check out the site: http://litescript.ch...ticle.com/vintz
and see how the boxes just popup (there is a bug that im fixing so that the one that is clicked is actually on top; right now they popup in natural order...im working on it :))? i think it would be cool if they slid in starting out fast and slowing down as you get closer to the point where it stops.  Where can i learn to do this? I have flash5 and I am not really that good at it :(.  Where is a good place to learn?

<edit>(btw this aint no site chek, im tryin to figure out how to do sumthin in flash. quik :-P)</edit>

many thanks.
