Creating examples of Web art that shine with unburdened creativity is easy
with Flash 5. In fact, you can create more than just simple Web-based
animations with Flash — audio, site navigation, and full interactivity
are at your disposal as well. So put on those monkey goggles and pull up a
chair.
In the latest Flash 5 tutorial, Mike teaches you how to animate in a jiffy
by running down what tools you need and then showing you how to use them. He
stops along the way to cover file optimization, pulldown menus, importing
sounds, and the amazing tellTarget action. If you're a beginner, there's
plenty here for you to absorb. If you're a seasoned pro, then let Mike take
you back to school you for a few tricks to help make your final Flash
projects cleaner and meaner.
Warning! This tutorial is for Flash 5. If you're using Flash 4, then you'll
want to cruise on over to the Flash 4 Tutorial.
