you have to pay for this crap? (also groovyd you copied your first site from here? http://www.cartoonsmart.com/interface_design.html) seriously dont pay for these tutorials you can get better tuts that come with flash and if you have any design sense you can make a site with that knowledge. If you want to spend money buy a book from macromedia ("traning from the source" series is good) and use that to learn the basic stuff but i learned it without any tutorials except the ones that come with flash. (and i can assure you you wont have all a the flash knowledge from the above tuts, there is far more to know about the use of flash than you can learn in a few hours.)

Well, that is quite the question....

And in fact, I actually the FIRST day of learning Flash, went onto a forum and posted just like you. Wow that was 7 years ago too.

Incredible........ anyway

I will pass on the same knowledge that was provided to me, I didn't listen at first but of course, when I did, my ability to handle flash's complex learning curve became so much easier.

Books, books, books.

Tutorials don't work. They just plan dont; work. They don't stick to your brain, you don't get the right language explained to ya. It's just not the same as reading from a good old text book.

I STRONGLY recommend books from Sams Publishing (anything "Learn in 24 hours" is a good crash course)

The thing about the books, is that they put the knowledge and understanding into a light where you can understand it to a full degree. This is very important to making all this stuff stick in your brain. Trust me. I've had to learn programming and all the craziness that came with Actionscript as an artist by nature. Wasn't easy.

Take it from me, this will make your life alot easier. Plus the books dive into some wicked tutorials that actually make sense and you can apply immediately. Once you've got EVEN one of those books in your head, go nail off some tutorials on the internet. I find tutorials on the internet are just a mixed pot of different styles of doing things. I think a book gives you the ability to make up your own logical style of doings things by learning it the right way in the first place.

Anyway, good luck to you.

another thing to think about:

while building in flash is good and all, make sure you think about WHAT you want your site to do. thats the biggest killer of flash. i was trying to learn it, however i didnt have a good game plan of what i wanted any of my sites to look like. so now, for inspiration, i check out boxedart.com and look at their flash templates. that will give you a decent idea of what you can do.

    • Meta and Oakley launch AI-driven Performance Glasses with new HSTN model by Fiza Ali Meta has partnered with Oakley to create a new category of Performance AI glasses, combining Oakley’s signature design DNA with Meta’s artificial intelligence technology. This collaboration builds on the success of Ray‑Ban Meta glasses and extends Meta’s partnership with EssilorLuxottica to include another eyewear brand. The global launch is supported by a campaign featuring Team Oakley athletes Kylian Mbappé and Patrick Mahomes. The first model in this series, Oakley Meta HSTN (pronounced "HOW‑stuhn"), is based on Oakley’s HSTN frame. It features a discreet integrated camera capable of capturing Ultra HD (3K) video hands‑free. Open‑ear speakers are also incorporated into the frame. With an IPX4 water‑resistance rating, the HSTN glasses are designed to withstand sweat, rain, and splashes. At the core of the HSTN is Meta AI, the built‑in personal assistant. Users can ask for real‑time environmental data, such as wind speed on a golf course or issue simple voice commands to capture videos or photos. When it comes to the battery life, a full charge provides up to eight hours of use or 19 hours on standby. A portable charging case supplies up to 48 hours of power. Pre‑orders for the Limited‑Edition Oakley Meta HSTN open on 11 July at $499, with the standard collection, starting at $399, due to launch later in the summer. Initial availability will cover the US, Canada, UK, Ireland, France, Italy, Spain, Austria, Belgium, Germany, Sweden, Norway, Finland and Denmark, with Mexico, India and the United Arab Emirates slated to follow before the end of the year. The Oakley Meta HSTN will make its public debut at major sporting events, beginning with Fanatics Fest (20-22 June) and UFC International Fight Week (25-27 June). Further information about the Oakley Meta HSTN, including updates on availability, can be found at Oakley.com and Meta's dedicated webpage here.
    • Ok, wouldn't it be cheaper for tesla to just leave out the self driving system and use the human since he is just gonna be sitting there anyway?
    • A bunch of new content in this patch, including Hurston warehouse missions that are currently bugged, of course. The huge worm mission is cool. Rain is an amazing add-on feature, radiation in Pyro is cool but deadly af. Only issue Im having rn is the horrible server desync and lag. I have ended up 3 times in jail for shooting guards that just pop in your way while shooting baddies.
    • Elon Musk's robotaxi will have a human driver for 'safety' reasons by David Uzondu Image via Depositphotos.com A few days ago, we reported that Tesla was gearing up for its robotaxi launch, set to kick off in Austin, Texas, and now the details of the service are trickling out. Electrek says that some popular pro-Tesla influencers on X have gotten invitations to the launch. These invitations came with a list of rules, and the most glaring one was the presence of what Tesla called a "Safety Monitor" in the front passenger seat. This is basically a human supervising driver whose entire job is to watch the car and make sure it does not drive itself into a ditch. This might feel a little strange, especially given Musk's claims of "no driver" testing in the past. The safety monitor is one of the employees with access to buttons that can stop the car, much like the ones available to Waymo passengers in their fully autonomous rides. The service will operate within a geofenced area from 6 AM to 12 AM and will not run during bad weather. Other requirements include a credit card on file and an agreement that you will not be a jerk. Participants must also agree to a bunch of other rules, and one of the most interesting ones is that their access can be terminated if they share content on social media that shows the vehicle being misused. On top of that, they're not allowed to reverse engineer the technology in any way. At least the passenger gets a bit of a break. So, unlike the Tesla Full-Self Driving Beta, which requires the owner's constant attention, the supervising driver is expected to pay attention. At the same time, you, the passenger, can relax and enjoy the ride. According to Electrek's Fred Lambert, the robotaxi launch seems like an optics thing, designed to let Elon Musk say he met his June deadline for launching a robotaxi network.
