Ask the Oracle Demo: https://bit.ly/2UNTLQH Download: https://bit.ly/2WPmaHU The mad libs challenge from a couple weeks ago made me nostalgic for games I played when I was a kid. This Valentine story pays homage to my Magic 8-Ball. It was pretty simple to make--it has a random number variable, some layers, entry and exit animations, and some cool vector art by Rea Molko. My sources say you might like it. :) Have a great week!

Hi Hilary, I have an AWS S3 account...I learned about using it from Tom Kuhlman last year in one of the Articulate live sessions. It is very cost effective and I think you can get a free year. Just search on that term in the forums and I think you'll find a discussion on it by Tom. I'm not that skilled with the cloud, but this works really well for me.

Funny! I do have a something you might call a process though. At any one time I have 3 or 4 unfinished stories that interest me, but haven't come together yet. Then I see a challenge and go "Gee, I think I can adapt that one to #219". It's like a bullpen. RIght now I'm sitting on one for "How to Give Your Cat a Pill" and a Cat Zodiac story. So if you need some challenge topics maybe a web objects one would be great, or a meaningful comparison? Or a "how to demonstrate something"? My stories are longing to be set free in the challenges. :) Chat soon!

Red roses or not, let's not drift far away from our main mission: learning. This is a light Valentine's day themed challenge: Answer the question and see how to use Storyline to check free text entry against a correct answer based on how similar the texts are. Oh, and how to penalize you if missed any of the three keywords included in your answer. Life is a box of chocolate. http://www.rabbitoreg.com/examples/valentine/story_html5.html

I haven't seen a challenge lately with links to the internet so thanks for reminding me of that feature. David Anderson, how about a web objects challenge? If I were to give one piece of feedback, I noticed when I was trying to choose my gift I didn't see any hover effect under my cursor. That might be a nice touch because I personally like a signal that my cursor is doing or activating something when I am moving it around.

Thanks, Jodi! For the introduction and exit slide animations on this one, I used a template from Motion Array which I downloaded to After Effects. I sometimes create animations on my own and am working on getting better at it but Motion Array is a great resource to get quality animations incorporated quickly. It's also a great way to learn how to use After Effects and Premiere Pro. They offer a lot of templates which you can modify.

I wanted to share a simple method I use for creating animated GIFs from static images. I have some fun Valentines Day examples, but since I didn't get this posted in time, I showed a Valentines example but then used a non-holiday image in my demo which you can watch here: https://youtu.be/-ND4txFiiaU I'm also happy to share my PowerPoint file if anyone wants to see that. But I'm not sure if I can upload the file here. Please let me know if there is a way to do that.

That's a really helpful tutorial, Susan! You know, your example would make a great entry for last week's challenge on using animated gifs in elearning: https://community.articulate.com/articles/using-animated-gifs-in-elearning/ Feel free to cross-post your example in that challenge. Here's a link to your video demo in the recap: https://community.articulate.com/articles/elearning-valentines-day-examples#SusanSchleef
