Applets > Messengers > Image Processing > LurkMessage Help

A dark message lurking in the dark will appear to you. Use this cool messenger to give a gothic look to your homepage.

Background image and background color

The background image will be used instead of the background color. Leave this field blank if you want to use the background color setting instead. Use the compression setting to decrease the SWF file size.

Fonts

Here you can here specify the text size (in pixels) and the font. This applet supports FFT files.

Entering messages and URLs

Make sure you have the same amount of URLs as you have messages. Enter each message in it's own line. See the section Entering Text Or Files for more information.

Movement settings

With this setting you can set the movement behaviour of the lenses to Random, Circular, Spiral or Pulsar movement.

Speed values, sizes, alpha and number of lenses

With the settings X from, X to, Y from and Y to, you can set the speed of the lenses. The size from and size to settings will set the diameter size (in pixels) of the lenses. The alpha value will let the lenses fade to the background color at the edges. The Lenses setting will set the number of lenses in the effect.

Random colors and Random lens size

If you check these check boxes, then the effect will color the lenses randomly or use a random lens size.

Pause

The pause between each image is measured in milliseconds.

Limitations

Due to a limitation in Flash Player 5.0, you can have a maximum of only 200 messages in the Flash applet. More than that, and the applet will not work.

There are other settings that are discussed on the following topics from the Anfy Flash documentation:
