Instructions to draw the above shown borderless circle
- Draw a black circle in a layer and delete it's border.
- Insert a layer above the black circle layer.

- Now go back to scene 1.
- Insert a new layer above bg layer and call it ripple1.
- Drag ripple_mc movie clip onto the working area. Place it right at the center, just the way you placed the circle in ripple_mc Movie clip.
- Insert frame (F5) into the 20th frame of ripple1 layer. This is just to make sure that the ripple _mc runs only for 20 frame.
- Insert frame (F5) into the 30th frame of bg layer.
Here you go!! Your movie is ready. Press Ctrl+Enter to view your movie. Wasn't it simple.
Tips: Inserting 1 ripple_mc Movie clip is sufficient if your picture is approximately the size of the picture as shown in the demonstartion. If your picture is really big, you might have to insert more than 1 layer of ripple_mc movie clip. See to that the difference between the appearance of each movie clip is 5 frames. Actually the differnce basically depends on the type of effect you want. So you can adjust it the way you want.For straight Ripple Effect, Click here.
