(2) i would also like to create a fade effect on my website back ground eg the top of the site background must begin with black and eventually fade off to a different color how can i do this? (3) i have noticed some web sites are somewhat in a 3d effect its like the web page is almost floating the edges of the page are round and it has a very clean cool look, i would like to know how i can achieve this, are there any links to tutorials or free banners/templates /software downloads? it will be a great help

2. 1) If you would like to have flash movies on your website you will need to download a trial version of Flash: https://www.adobe.com/cfusion/tdrc/index.cfm?product=flash and then learn to use it. 2) A fade effect on the website is achieved by creating a thin image with a width of 1 pixel and a height as long as you want your fade effect to span. Then make a gradient with the starting color at the top and the ending color at the bottom of the image. Once the image is created, put it in the HTML page using CSS (cascading style sheet) and have it tiled horizontally, this will give you the nice fade effect. 3) The 3d effect in website is achieved through images of shadows and the use of CSS and other methods, a good place to learn some cool web tricks is http://www.kirupa.com check out the photoshop tips and web tips.
