The ExplodingMessage applet
blasts your message to pieces, and has a variety of configurations,
to make this a very reactive and eye-catching applet.
Color
Choose your color for the text and the background.
Messages
In the enter messages text box you write the
text for your message. Each line of text represents a single
scrollable part of your message. The messenger will scroll
through each line of text and then start again from the beginning.
In the enter links text box you place any hyperlinks. Each
hyperlink will be matched to its line of text in the enter
messages text box opposite. When that line of text is scrolled
in the messenger, a user will be able to click on the messenger
window and open the hyperlink. Leave a line empty to prevent
anything from happening when the user clicks on that line
of text in the message.
Other
Animation Speed
The animation speed determines how long each line of text
is displayed in the messenger.
X and Y Scale
The X and Y scale determine the size of text as a percentage
of the original text size. The original text size is set to
automatically fit the size of the applet.
Target Frame

allow for the background image to show through.
