    it will take them a lot longer.. they have to code out a bunch of shit in JS because the thing needs to be like a text ticker/ banner that utilizes specific fonts and gradient fill and black outline, deal with CSS and crossbrowser compatbility and even that won't work properly because they can't do those effects and they have to be there in order to make those quotes pop from the background.

    Unfortunately, this type of stuff would have been easily solved if we had some static content and could do graphcis in PNG.. so make those quotes as bitmaps and done.. I'd be fine with that, but those images have to be dynamic from xml file and rotate and slide in and out and fade and so on.

    For them to do that in JS/CSS it will be a lot more work and the results won't even come close to the visuals I can do in Flash with filters and all that and have External Interface communicate with JS and then just have them pass text and source url and so on to Flash and flash does the job and it looks great and it's dynamic.

    But no.. when you are dense and retarded you go hitting a head against the wall.

    I quit really.. I just gave them to do whtaever they want.. I offered to help them and make that thing in Flash in 10 mins and all they had to do is integrate it into html as a div holding that flash piece with transparent background.

    Now they can go and do their own thing and deal with how that crap might not look the same on all browsers and client bitching and moaning to them.
