Thanx for u'r rresponse
but i think you didn't see the intro. the link of the intro is on www.dinix.com in the top of the page and named as play inspiration. just click on that then the intro part will start that is a shockwave flash file but its contain 3d effects. pls help me?????
My suggestion is you look into a 3D sulution that will work for you there is no way to "draw" that stuf. There is a whole nother world of artist out there in the 3D world. Animating 3d is simmiar to flash, sort of, but it is a tool that is used in creating the boldest design out there. period. I use 3ds MAX to do 3D for film, print and video, and Discrete Plasma for rendering to flash for interactive cd-roms and webb sites and shockwave stuff. It would take the best flash animators years to "draw" some of the 3d flash that is put out there nowadays...
-> you can downlad a free version of plasma, http://www.discreet.com/pr
pretymuch fully functional exept you have to create all the content in the program and you cannot save. It should wet your appitite VERY much. the possibilities are endless... If your a total newb to 3D, grab some tuorials off there site. Luckely, you dont have to buy 3Ds MAX to run plasma, and for it's price it is well worth the investment.
-> The guys are right about the front page. All those ellements are created easily with flash. BUT, like you said the "play insperation" part is deffinatly not, admit it guys, the future is intergartion of 3D and flash... The pics on that site were high Quality jpeg's and the bright vibrant look is created with the same photoshop u got. Just good design.
Oh, just to be clear the whole intro thing is flash. (right click) A program like plasma or swift 3d take a 3d file and renders it in a vector format or as a "swf". they simply took those frames of annimation, and inserted them as symbols in thier flash movie. once they are in there, they can use them over and over again, adjusting scale, opacity, and stuf -to decrease file size, but look awsome.
One way you can tell if a part of a webpage is made with macromedia Flash is to right click over the animation as its playing and it will say something like : "Settings", "About macromedia Flash Player 7"
You can also create vector graphics that have basic 3D effects in the latest versions of Illustrator & Freehand. 3DS Max, Maya, Plasma, Swift 3d are the most popoular choices for website flash & shockwave 3D content. You can also you Adobe After effects for creating amazing lighting effects and export as flash although when I do this I usually create the final version from scratch in Flash to keep the size smaller but use after effects for the initial concept. You can also use Adobe Livemotion to import After effects projects and export as flash. You can get some nice premade Flash effect & 3D animations to use in your site or as a starting point from www.flashkit.com - this site is one of the most popular flash sites for newbies to pros and they have gret forums if you have any questions etc.

It's clearly flash, creatively put together. The tilted circle in the middle isn't 3D at all. Just a circle skewed a bit in Illustrator, or even flash itself to give the illusion of having depth. The rest of it is just flat shapes at an angle. The lighting effects are just repeating frames in the animation and the menu at the side is a simple flash rollover.
