CREATING GLOW EFFECT IN FLASH
NB:Excuse me experts,,this only for beginners.....

Flash has 3 kinds of glow effects
1.glow,
2.knockout and
3.inner glow .
You will learn how to create these effects in this tutorial.

First, open a new Flash document in Flash 8 and use the text tool to write some sample text. Now convert this to a symbol by choosing the text then clicking on Modify -> Convert to Symbol... Choose Movie Clip, give the symbol a name and click on ok.

Choose the symbol and click on the Filters tab which is next to the Properties tab
(at the bottom left of your screen) and use the plus (+) symbol to choose the Glow filter. You will see the Glow options as shown below. Here you can change the glow color, blur and strength.
Glow effects are not only applicable to texts,it also applicable for images..
try with some new ideas....
Thanks...
