How not to organize a FLA
I’ve seen some disorganized FLA’s before but this project I just took over takes the cake. I present it to you now with it’s 1000+ frames and 100+ layers of flashacktackory glory,…
women will cry, children will scream, grown men will wet themselves,…
the worst FLA EVAH!!!

It’s actually quite beautiful in a perverse kind of way. I’m particularly fond of how the ActionScript is strewn about willy nilly as if the author hadn’t a care in the world.
You know the scene in American History X where Ed Norton puts the dude’s teeth on the curb then stomps on his head? That punishment would be too kind for whomever made this steaming pile’o'flash.
I’ll spare you the Library as your eyes would melt out of your head.

That’s truly horrible!
The worst part is the site is only four ‘pages’, maybe they were charging by the hour
Holly molie! and here I thought programmers were scared of the timeline……who’s responsible for this monstrosity? don’t they have some kind of award for this kind of stuff?
