Hi,
I'm new to the group and my question is of a conceptual/creative
nature. I've been asked by Senior Management to come up with
a "concept" to visually represent the range of our aircraft using
Flash. I think it's important that whatever gets designed is useful
and supports the information. I don't want it to be gratuitous.
The example that was provided to me (a concept they "liked") is on
this page:
http://www.uyjaviation.com/learjet.htm
Besides the fact that I'm not going to "steal" the concept for our
site...I personally don't see any value in it. I don't see how it
demonstrates the range of their aircraft. I've shown it to several
users and they've rated the value it adds to that page as low.
Does anyone have any creative ideas on how to use Flash to demonstrate
the range of an aircraft?
Hope someone has some ideas...I'm stumped.
Thanks!
