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.

    • Serious question here. Why is the start menu such a heated topic? I can't remember the last time that I used the start menu for anything at all other than it pops up when I hit the WIN key on my keyboard before I type for the program I want to run and then hit Enter or to restart my machine. I honestly wish it would just go away, and it just be replaced with the PowerToys Run menu. Am I missing something with the Start menu? I see people always talking about installing third party replacements and such, but I just wonder what some are actually using the Start menu for that I might be missing out on. Genuine question. Hopefully not offending anyone as I know everyone has their own way to work and access things in the OS.
    • These are the Apple Watch models that support watchOS 26 by Aditya Tiwari Apple has announced the latest operating system upgrade for its smartwatch lineup, called watchOS 26, not watchOS 12, as many expected a while ago. The Cupertino giant has unified the software experience across its platforms by introducing the "Liquid Glass" software design and renaming all the operating systems to version 26. That said, the next question is which Apple Watch models will support watchOS 26. Apple has shared the official list of devices: Apple Watch Ultra 2 Apple Watch Ultra Apple Watch Series 10 Apple Watch Series 9 Apple Watch Series 8 Apple Watch Series 7 Apple Watch Series 6 Apple Watch SE (2nd Generation) The upcoming Apple Watch update brings several new features to your wrist. Liquid Glass design gives a fresh look to the UI with updated Control Center and translucent buttons within apps. It's new Workout Buddy feature can use an Apple Intelligence-enabled iPhone nearby to provide personalized, spoken motivation during workouts. Building on the Double Tap feature, you can now flick your wrist to perform actions like muting incoming calls, silencing timers, and dismissing notifications when your hands are full. It is available on Apple Watch Ultra 2 and Apple Watch Series 9 (or later). watchOS 26 is currently available for testing through the Apple Developer Program. It will roll out to general users during the fall season, when Apple is expected to refresh the Ultra and SE models. Note that your Apple Watch must be paired with an iPhone 11 (or later) or iPhone SE (2nd generation or later) running iOS 26. While the list of Apple Watch models that support watchOS 26 remains the same, it won't work with iPhone Xs/Xs Max and iPhone Xr, which were previously supported on watchOS 11. You can check out the respective lists of supported devices for iOS 26, iPadOS 26, and macOS 26 Tahoe.
    • Galaxy Z Fold7 to be the thinnest and lightest foldable from Samsung by Sagar Naresh Bhavsar A few days ago, Samsung shared an official teaser of their upcoming premium foldable, the Galaxy Z Fold7. Interestingly, the company titled the official post, "Meet the Next Chapter of Ultra," giving birth to a new rumor about a new "Ultra" foldable. The teaser highlighted Galaxy Z Fold7's tall and wide design, which previous rumors have suggested. The Galaxy Z Fold7 is also expected to come with a bigger display compared to the Galaxy Z Fold6. There were also rumors that Samsung could use a titanium backplate for improved durability and also make the device slim. Now, Samsung has shared a new teaser of the Galaxy Z Fold7 that adds a bit a weight to this rumor. Samsung has called the Galaxy Z Fold7 the "thinnest, lightest, and most advanced foldable yet." While the company didn't share any measurements or metrics that would define how thin or light the upcoming foldable is, the GIF shows the Galaxy Z Fold7 from the side (and it appears quite thin). Take a look for yourself: It would be safe to say that Samsung has been lacking in terms of making its foldable devices slim, even reducing the display crease. Though the company launched the Galaxy Z Fold6 Special Edition in China and Korea last year, which was their slimmest phone, it was nowhere near the likes of the OPPO Find N5. In terms of innovation as well, the company is far behind, and Chinese makers such as Huawei have already released the world's first triple-folding phone, the Mate XT. On the positive side, Samsung claimed that their "engineers and designers are refining each generation of the Galaxy Z series to be thinner, lighter, and more durable than the last," suggesting that the company could bring improvements with this year's foldable. The Galaxy Z Fold7 is expected to launch next month, in New York, in the second Unpacked event of the year, alongside the Galaxy Z Flip7. There are also rumors that the affordable version of the flip phone, the Galaxy Z Flip7 FE, could also launch at the event.
