Using a few simple techniques we will build and animate a business card in Flash. The idea is that when the user clicks the business card it flips over and diplays information on the back and when it is clicked again it flips back over and displays the front again.

Really basic stuff but thought i would chuck it in there. Thanks guys and gals
