Help to a Newbie please changing a .jpg to an .swf

Post by mediamaker09 »

Hi Guys I have started to setup an estore and bought a template from template monster as can be seen : http://xtantmedia.net/storefront/

Now I have created a swf exactly the same size as the Image and if you view the source I copied this and replaced banner_02.jpg to banner_02.swf and made sure it was in the images folder but wouldnt show.

If anyone could help me I would really appreciate it

You cannot simply change the extensions. Flash is not handled in the same was an image.

This should point you in the right direction.
