Flash - Full Screen Image fx

Question

Hi,

I am wondering about the image effect seen on this site http://www.daffys.com/

I'm referring to the dotted / grid-like effect on the images. Do you think it's a simple Photoshop treatment or is it an effect done in Flash, related to the fact that the images scale full screen. I've seen this on many other sites and would be very interested in your opinions, even better if someone has already done this and could point me in the right direction on how to get this done.

Thanks to all!

Answer 1

It is just a layer with the dots on top of another layer with the image.

Answer 2

1. Daffy's is a horrible website design. It took too long to load for no reason. If I were a potential customer, I would have fled in horror.
2. Dot-effect looks to be a semi-transparent layer on top of the images. The images move, but the dots don't, so that means it's in flash. Daffy's logo sits on top of the dots layer.
3. The site is horrible. Even after it's loaded. Sorry. Flash for no reason annoys me.

Here is the as2 version: http://flashden.net/item/true-full-screen-progressive-video-background-with-scan-lines/full%5Fscreen%5Fpreview/15071

I'm sure the is an as3 version of this floating around somewhere, or the code can be updated to as3
