What do you think about Sothink?

I'm not a website designer but have a client that needed some text objects updated on his all flash site. I've convinced him to move to WordPress but for now I needed to do some simple edits to his flash text. I used the free version of Sothink SWF Quicker but the free version brands the edits with a blinking text link. Is the paid version of Sothink Quicker the best bang for the buck or is there something better, free or paid?

    Do you have the FLA file to edit?

    If not, I've used the Sothink decompiler for a couple years now with good success as long as the script isn't too complicated. It can create the FLA for you so you can easily edit...

    Let me know if you need help with this. If it's just a simple text edit, I might be able to help you in minutes. Can't promise though. Send me a message if you'd like.

      Yea, I had gotten the FLA using the free Sothink Decompiler but the FLA doesn't include the action script text. Guess the paid version is needed for that?
      That's why I then tried the free Quicker and that worked but with the branding.

        If you want, you could send me the file and I'll try and decompile it for ya... That will save you a purchase

        After that, I could zip it all up for ya and email it back...

        Let me know

    Thanks a lot for the offer. The client is now wanting to make other changes to the flash site so I think I'm just going to tell him he'll need to also pay for the program. That will also encourage him to move to WordPress where he can make simple text updates himself. Flash may look great but what a pain. Thanks again.
