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.

    • So is Ubuntu and Fedora (with GNOME). It's a welcome move and those that need X11 can easily install as pointed out in the article it but that won't stop a loud minority from whining of course. Funny but It will actually be easier to install X11 on Ubuntu then enable Flatpak support/Flathub and use them.
    • End of an era? Kubuntu is removing default support for X11 in new installs by David Uzondu X11, the old window system whose days have long felt numbered, just saw another one of its major supporters head for the exit. Kubuntu has decided to follow its parent distro's lead, making its next release, version 25.10, a Wayland-only affair for fresh installs. It seems many Linux developers see Wayland as the future. Just recently, Linux Mint started working to improve support for the protocol in Cinnamon, tackling lingering issues with keyboard layouts and input methods. You can even see the progress in KDE's development, where an upgrade to Wayland PiP is planned for KDE Plasma 6.5. So what's the logic behind dropping a session that, for the most part, still works? According to Kubuntu's Rik Mills, the team wants to "rip off this sticking plaster" now, in an interim release, rather than ###### off a lot of people by doing it in the next Long-Term Support version, 26.04. The developers feel that maintaining code for the aging X11 system holds back progress on security and new features that Wayland can enable more easily. Plus, supporting two separate display servers is a massive undertaking. Of course, this change might have some people worried, but relax; all is not lost if you still need the old session. If you're running hardware that acts up, like some older NVIDIA cards, or who relies on an ancient application that doesn't play nicely with the XWayland compatibility layer, you can still get your familiar session back. Just enter the following command in your terminal: sudo apt install plasma-session-x11 Once that command finishes, the X11 session will appear as an option on the login screen, so you can carry on as before. As OMGUbuntu notes, not everyone in the Ubuntu family is following its lead just yet. Other official flavors like Xubuntu, Ubuntu Budgie, and Ubuntu Cinnamon are expected to keep offering an X11 session on their default installs for this cycle.
    • Mangohud hasn't been built into "Steam Deck", it has been built into SteamOS. I understand that your goal is to try and praise MS for a simple feature that everyone else has, but we are comparing OS vs OS. Hardware does not have anything "built-in". Software does. Like it or not, SteamOS has it "built-in". And it is far superior to XBOX game bar's information.
    • Please don't inject yourself into a discussion you did not read or understand what was said. No where did I say Windows was hard to use. I knew when seen two notifications with your handle the replies they were going to be a waste of time to read.
