Power Up Intro

This file was selected as an ACTIVEDEN FILE OF THE WEEK in 2010!

JUNE 2011 UPDATE : Improved graphic elements and additional features including support for multiple links and a choice of plug color (light or dark).

The Power Up Intro is an interactive intro for your website… and a departure from the typical “Enter Site” button. It includes five wall textures and five floor textures to mix and match. A simple animated preloader is built into the file.

This intro is driven by an easy-to-modify XML file. Following is a list of features that are customizable via the XML :

• Link URL (the web link where the viewer is re-directed on completion) Each receptacle on the wall can now be linked to a different URL , if desired.
• Wall texture (choices include: tan, brown, gray, blue, and blank)
• Floor texture (choices include: wood, tile, carpet, concrete, and blank)
• Choice of light or dark-colored plug and wire
• Color and alpha transparency of the message on the wall (the message can also be turned “off”)
• Color and alpha transparency of the animated arrow on the wall (the arrow can also be turned “off”)
• Color of the electric glow which occurs around the receptacle when the plug is inserted
• Fade out color
• Sound effects can be turned “on” or “off”
