I just got Macromedia Flash MX 2004 yesterday. I haven't had any version of Flash previously, and I decided to mess around with the program. After a mere one hour of working, I finished my first, albeit extremely short, flash animation ever. It's not too good because, well, like i said its my first time. But hopefully this can open up new opportunities for me.

Yay. Go me.

Oh, btw, thanks to enjoyincubus for "scientifically altering" his "extremely difficult netcode with pinpoint precision and accuracy" to allow me to upload my swf.

LxS you did that frame by frame right? if so how many layers did you use...i would do frame by frame if i could figure out how you're supposed to do it. I dont know if i make a frame, then make the next frame right after that a keyframe and delete the original picture and draw it from memory or what. Please tell me how u did it LxS! :)

M, I used Onion skinning. It's the 3 boxes right under the Timeline. I'm too lazy to describe so just search "help" or whatever on Onion Skinning.
