Webmonkey shows us how to Flash

Flash sites have been the new thing on the Web for some months now. Both Netscape and IE are supporting the format. I can't see this technology disappearing any time soon, and with Macromedia's recent release of Flash v4 you can be sure that a new wave of bigger, better, smarter Flash pages is going to hit really soon. Have you been holding off on learning Flash? Maybe, like me, you tried the tutorial in the program and found it too hard to follow? Well, Webmonkey gets it right. Their flash tutorial is split into two lessons which take you through the basics of drawing and moving objects through to clickable buttons, looping animations, morphing and adding sounds. The style of writing is very easy to follow and the tutorial is split nicely into steps even I can follow. If you've been promising yourself you'll learn flash, you won't find a better introduction than this one. It might be an old article now, but with Flash v4 sites arriving soon, can you afford to put off reading it again?
