TerminatorFiles.com Flashintro 2003-2005

Many people have asked us for more information on the intros of our site. Well... since we love making them and showing them off to people around us... we thought we'd provide them on the net for all to view?!

To the right are all the intros made for the first TerminatorFiles.com website, with added information on their development.

When you click the thumbnail to view a specific intro, the site will reload it. When the intro itself is clicked or has ended, you will return to this page.

You need a Flash/Shockwave plug-in to view all intros. Click here for more info!
