Description A Flash Animation Tutorial for people who have never used Macromedia Flash before and totally drown in the technicalities
of all those tutorials online.

I hope it will be useful... I'm often a bit chaotic when it comes to explaining things ^_^;

Good thing this tutorial has about 100 screenshots o_o

Send me a note if you don't get it...
Or see HORRIBLE mistakes in this tutorial.
Don't flame me on my spelling mistakes, I'm Dutch x_o

I love feedback on the usefulness of this XD

Ah yeah ! I love step by step tutorials with no useless verbiages, people talking and talking, non-stop chit-chating for saying nothing interesting at the end!!...

I love tutorials with no sound. And your tutorial is very user-friendly, very "eLearning" approach, letting the learner to choose what he needs to learn.

Hey, I LOVED your tutorial, I'm using it to make my first flash ever! But I have a little problem:

Since I don't want draw on Flash, I import my images that I made on photoshop to the Library and stuff.

Okay, when I wanted zoom in an image it doesn't look good, I mean, the lines look weird moving.
I guess it's because of the format of the image (.jpg)
I wanted to know what I should do, if the problem is the format or not.

Great tutorial work 83

I have a tiiiny question regarding Flash. And it's probably really stupid.

I can't seem to find the "properties"-menu in Flash 5. Are there one? I'd love to use the shape-tween-option, cuz I'm lazy.

This tutorial was really helpful, but as I was making the panda thing, I kept messing up with the layers. Second time I tried I was getting it all right until flash CRASHED ON MEH NRRG. Does that happen to people often? D8
