Well, I finally got to it several weeks later. I got caught up in a lot of other stuff and could never make it back around to work on my file. I had to expedite the process a bit. So, the end result is quite clunky, but I tried some stuff here I'd never really tried before. Looping motion paths, using transparent gifs, adding my own sounds (and actually recording them). I don't know. It's the second ELH challenge I've ever submitted. So, I hope y'all like it if anyone is even still around this ELH challenge anymore! :P Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays, my friends! :)

- really enjoyed making a s'more! How did you do the flame; it looks like motion path and a shape?
- Hi, Billi! Thanks for taking the time to check it. There's more I wanted to do, but things go a little complex since i did this all on the base layer essentially. I should have split it up into layers. Oh well!
The fire, actually, is a trick I learned from Jonathan Hill's project for this same ELH Challenge. It's a transparent GIF that I got from GIPHY. I credit the author for the GIF and the music at the very beginning of the interaction. So, GIFs can be added to Storyline files; it's as simple as importing a picture file and the animation will still work. Just be cautious: too large a file/GIF can really bog down your slides and up the load time for it.
Still, it makes for some very fun ideas!
The fire crackling sound you hear, btw, is me recording myself crushing a plastic bottle. LOL. It's so fun to get creative like that, right?
