Whether you are managing a restaurant, working in the service industry, or hosting a dinner party for besties, you should know the basic rules and etiquette for setting a proper table. And that's what this week's challenge is all about!

    With David's permission, I'd like to share my now-traditional 100% Storyline animated greetings card with this very special creative community I like so much for a few years now.

    Bonne Année à tous ! Happy New Year to you all! 

    It's been a lot of work. I've only just finished it, which is why I missed the bus last week.

    It's better with a screen that's not too small, good sound and a good connection. 7mn 30s.

    Hope you like it. Best wishes for 2025.

      Wow, amazing work, Thierry! Such a wonderful story. Mind-blowing that it was entirely made in Storyline!

    Am I the first.  This interaction uses AI generated images for all the plates and utensils as well as the hostess.  The background music is AI generated as is the introduction.  A special feature of this interaction is the hostess who provides visual feedback to let you know how close you are to getting everything in the right place.  Unfortunately, I had to create and adjust variables based on the states of the objects so that I could update the Lightbox each time it openned.  This took a little extra work.
