If you're new here (or even if you're not) and want to learn Flash, check out my free intro chapter from my upcoming how-to Flash Animation eBook. This chapter introduces you to Flash CS3 and walks you through creating a simple but effective bit of frame-by-frame animation. More info?

The source of all Evil :P Posts: 395 Group: Brackenites Member #8,625 Joined: October 31, 2007	Ive just read the chapter. a lot of it I already knew, but you show it in a more interesting hands on approach from other authors and it will be helpful for people who are not too accustomed to flash. i might actually buy the full book when its available

That way, you can show using fullscreen video instead of small pics, and you can give examples immediately. And also, we can hear your voice and feel that much closer to you

Plus you have diagrams there. this is a great idea! although i dont really like buying things i cant hold. (Unless OF COURSE the subject you are teaching is extremely of interest) but the dvd/s ill be happy to buy. ps: THANKS FOR THE FREE-NESS

Besides, if you forget say where the onionskin tool is, who wants to trawl through a video searching for it? With a book, you just look over the table of contents and flick right to the page Don't worry PlasticCup, there's plenty of video with my lovely voice in the works Rubberhead Great initiative Adam, and a good way to make some extra money. You should make sure this gets posted on Newgrounds. fspit_2.gif That crossed my mind too.. when it's completely finished, I'll post links on my NG blog.

How much will the full ebook cost? me on blog I know you�re wondering what the sale price will be for the remainder of the book, but so am I. I�m still undecided but let�s say I want it to be less expensive than a standard Flash Animation book in bookstores, but I also won�t sell it short. I guess it�ll be between $20 and $40 so if you�re interested, stick around.
