I just got Flash and I'm not at all experienced in it. Teach me plz 1

[GreyDawg]

Hi I just got a copy of Flash and I'm 0% experienced in it.  So I was wondering if someone could teach me the basics so I can make a site.

First thing to do- get the tutorials down (under the help menu)- they'll teach you the basics pretty well. After you've got those licked completely, come back here and we'll be able to help a little bit. Otherwise, I wouldn't know where to start. <p>Liam Morley<br><a href=mailto:lmorley@wpi.edu>lmorley@wpi.edu</a><br><a href=

I started out in the same situation.&nbsp;&nbsp;I saw Flash sites and wanted to learn how to make them myself.&nbsp;&nbsp;I suggest doing what worked for me.<br><br>I bought the book: <b> Flash 4! Creative Web Animation,</b> by Derek Franklin.&nbsp;&nbsp;I learned the basics over a weekend. <p>Judland<br><a href=mailto:judlandwaste@netscape.net>judlandwaste@netscape.net</a><br><a href=

I know the feeling well, as I was overwhelmed when I first viewed the screen.&nbsp;&nbsp;So, I went to the bookstore and found an excellent book, 'Essential Flash 4 for Web Professionals' by Lynn Kyle&nbsp;&nbsp;ISBN 0-13-014327-8&nbsp;&nbsp;$30.<br><br>This book builds two Flash 4 web sites on a step-by-step basis with many diagrams.&nbsp;&nbsp;You have to do this 2 or 3 times before the programming sets in.&nbsp;&nbsp;You can figure out what's going on in most of the sample movies.<br><br>&nbsp;At least after you read this, you will have a great understanding of the basics and be able to build some decent movies.<br><br><br><br>
