Flash Tutorial

Macromedia's popular application Flash has redefined the way web developers approach web design. With flash the web developer is now able to create a user experience that is rich in media and relatively quick loading, especially compared to traditional methods like GIF animations. Websites made up of music, videos, and custom, graphic intensive interfaces are all possible with Macromedia Flash.

In Flash you can create unique text, animations, movies, web applications, games and more. Although flash is somewhat more complex than traditional web development technologies like HTML and CSS, this tutorial will give you the basics you need to immediately get started with designing your own flash projects.

Knowledge of graphics programs like Adobe Photoshop and Illustrator will make creating graphics in flash much easier, but this experience is not required. Also, if you have used WYSIWYG (what you see is what you get) editors like FrontPage and DreamWeaver, then flash will be much easier to learn.

This Flash tutorial, from tizag.com, was written using Macromedia Flash 8, but if you have an earlier version of Flash you should still be able to follow along the tutorial without a problem.
