This morning, I joined hundreds of thousands of people around the world for an online streaming presentation of Adobe Creative Suite 4. My overall impression . . . Well, I guess I'm hard to impress.
Can't find the answers to your Flash questions? Can't figure out why you can't get your Flash files to work, even though you followed all the directions in the School of Flash tutorials? Post your question on the School of Flash Forum to see if somebody else has the answers that you so desperately seek.
So drop by the forums, register, create your first post, and then drop me a line and let me know what you think.
For years, the advice has always been that if you want good search engine results, then you don't want to create your website entirely with Flash, because search engines have no way of effectively indexing swf files. Well, all of that is about to change.
As a trainer, one of the questions I get a lot from beginners is "How do I do 3D in Flash?" And historically, I've always had to break it to them gently that there really is no inherently easy way of creating 3D illustrations and animations for Flash without shelling out a few bucks on products like Swift 3D (which I still highly recommend, by the way).
As I watched the goat leap gracelessly into the air, I thought to myself, "What an amateurish attempt at animation!" Where's the anticipation, when the goat rears back before its jump? Where's the squash and stretch? Where's the follow through? Why was this done at such a low frame rate?
But then again, what more can you expect from an animation that was created over five thousand years ago?
