In most cases, when you design a Flash game the main screen is the last thing you add to your project.

This way, sometimes you may forget to include a feature or two because you want your game to be released into the wild.

Since you shouldn’t understimate the main screen (all in all it’s the first thing players see), here it is a brief guide about it. Follow this post and you will be able to create basic Flash game main screen in a matter of minutes.

Working freelance

Scot Trodick — Sat, 25 Oct 2008 04:40:29 +0000

Freelancing. It’s one of those maddeningly fuzzy terms that we hear all the time without ever quite grasping what it really means. And there’s a reason for that. Freelancers come in so many different stripes, working in such a broad swath of careers, that it’s difficult to define the concept.

Is a freelance worker the same as a temp worker? Is a freelance worker a contract worker? Is a freelance worker self-employed? Or all—or none—of the above?

Quick Definition: A freelancer is an independent contractor who sells services to different
employers without having a long term contract with any of them.

The Bureau of Labor Statistics says about 6.4% of the workforce is freelance. In Virginia, this means more than 200,000 people. Well, a freelancer, otherwise known as an “independent contractor,” can be all of these things. Freelance workers are self-employed. But they don’t own a store like a merchant, a professional office, like a doctor or lawyer, or a salon like a hairstylist. Instead they contract with employers to provide services or complete projects. They can travel to a client’s worksite to do a job, or they can work at home and send a project to the client. Sometimes they have a lot of different projects with a lot of different clients all going at once. Sometimes they work for just one client at a time, taking on new work only after they have completely put a project “to bed.” They can be paid by the project, by the hour, or sign a contract with a company to work a finite amount of time for a specific sum.
