ok wow!!! that was fantastic!!! the animation made such a difference to the tutorial. so much better than reading thru paragraphs of text as someone tries to explain what they mean!! wow.. only graphical downsides is i think the shine - which i dunno if u used white or not - needs to be duller. or maybe if u didnt use white, you might want to. it jsut seems a little dusty and hazy. the layout/graphics seem fine to me! tehy are simple but still look good. cept maybe hte bottom line that seperates the window and the controls. i think a basic straight line would be fine... maybe with a shadow underneath and highight on top would be good, so that it looks like it rolls in a bit on the line (like partlines in products). jsut subtle. i think as is its a bit over done. other than that its so sweet. oh also few spell, grammatic mistakes, ill tell u em so its easy to fix...
1. Step 3 - "...use your discretion, If it looks..." (comma then capital i)
2. Step 6 (and others) - you sais 'u' instead of you. I dunno if your teacher cares but yeh, jsut incase u did it naturally... ahah as i just did.
Hmm i thouught tehre were more haha oh well. Im not trying to nit pick jsut i know how much it helps when ppl do the spell check for me ;)
I love the tangetial curve popup by the way :thumbsup:

Oh a nother couple of graphic things. i think MAYBE (cant tell till i see it) the shines on the big botton should be bigger... so its closer to the edge. like .25 of a mm
and i think it would help if the step lit up depending on where u r. oh i spose it says the steps down the bottom hmm meh itd prob just be easier for the user imo.

i may have picked out the negatives but ti think this is mad, as a tutorial let alone and interactive tutorial!! well done matey.

Wow killah response!!! cheers man that really helped! the spellin was always gonna be a problem, i went thru and checked it soooo many times, and yeah i agree with you how the shines are too bright.

Will go and change these things now.

Thanks agian for taken the time to respond so thoughtfully! i wish everyone on DA would (including me)!

That would have taken forever! If i weren't supposed to be studying for exams at the moment I would actually try it out.

It really impresses me, all the time consuming little things you've added, like the screenwipe for the text, the helpful hints, the links at the end, the shading and decoration of the buttons, and especially the animated step by step instructions.

Very well done indeed.
