Aleo Flash Intro Banner Maker
This is an easy to use product-intuitive interface. Click a tab on the left side to change the feature ("text and images", for example).
When you open the program a preview window pops up which continually plays according to your current design and quickly reloads every time yoy make a change so that you immediately see what the change looks like. However you can't pause the preview, as far as I can see, which makes centering tedious. If you want to center text (or an image I suppose) you have to adjust the height and left/right position by number, which takes a while to get right. Since you can't pause the preview window, you have to adjust a little and then watch the preview, readjust and watch again, and so on. it takes to much time and would be nicer if you could either pause or use a drag-and-drop function to put it exactly where you want it the first time.
You can upload GIF images for a background, but the are static like JPGs and dont perform their respective GIF actions.
Lastly, it has some nice effects, for transition and text, but most are cartoony and not exactly "wow" material.
Overall i think it is a good product, probably best for basic banner ads and other ads but not so much for flash intros.
