I saw this effect on this website from this company called
evox that utilized this flash effect I could not figure out.
Please help me to figure out how they did it. The demo is here at <snip> Thanks in advance.

What exactly are you stumped about. The rotating vehicle or the "add an option"?

I understand how to do the rotating vehicle but the "add an option" while still maintaining realisim in all the panorama
frames is what has got me stumped.

While I not familiar with the features of the latest Flash I would guess that they've used one of two methods to build the effect.

1. Fastest method would be to build overlays of the options that match the frames of the rotating car.

2. Replace the entire image.

The image almost looked like a QT VR movie inside of Flash though and that is something I have no experience with.

Thanks for your input, lorax. But I don't quite understand
your reply. What do you mean "build over lays"? And how
would I do this? Please explain the idea behind your theory
of how the site makers created the effect.

Thanks
