| | Hello there! I have experience in flash through art classes in school, and Being a 16 year old on a low budget, I was curious if there were any flash like programs out there for free? I know free is pushing it lol... but Im desperate and my creative imagination needs to be released. I'm just looking for something that has the basic feel and capabilities of flash. Im looking for something that will be vector based, will animate, and will allow sounds to be added into the background! Any information would be awesomely appreciated! Thanks much! |

As far as I know there are no free flash-style programs, but you may be interested in Inkscape. It's only for graphics and not animations but it's similiar to flash in drawing and you could do an animated gif if it was little animation.

You can learn SVG by using the free tutorials given on the web and by reading the W3C SVG specification. SVG allows animating the specific path/shape/element. Currently, only Opera supports it (I think), but Mozilla is planning to add more SVG support in the near future (I think).

I came across a program called Synfig poking around a bit. http://synfig.org/Main_Page It seems to have versions for most operating systems. It is in development still however. For OS X and Linux there is Pencil. http://www.les-stooges.org/pascal/pencil/index.php?id=HomePerhaps one of those will be what you are looking for.

Looping A Flash Animation Certain Times?

into another animation and background sound. I'm sort of at a loss as to how to do this. Is

Is Xtivity A Replacement For Macromedia Flash?

little more about what this product was. Anyway, judging by what they say on the site, it looks
like a flash creation tool, designed more for graphic designers who want to use flash but who
aren't worried about all the behind the scenes stuff. One feature, which grabbed my attention,
is being able to import your .PSD (photoshop) files into the program and keep each ....

Loading Flash Content + Sound
(9) I'm having some trouble loading flash content and sound together. I would like for the content
of the flash movie to load up exactly when the sound does, but usually the sound loads a little
faster than the flash and the content is a little lagged/slow playing before it kicks in and
sync's up. Could anyone provide some insight as to how I would load the content and sound
together, so that it does not lag? P.S. I've already tried putting the sound in the first frame
of the flash, but it does not seem to help. Thanks in advance! /smile.gif' border='0' ....
Reversing Animation On A Gif

to reverse the way the frames move, at least nothing that I am aware of. Any help would be

have. Thanks!....
Importing Wmv Into Flash 5

works) and then importing the MPG into Ulead Gif Animator, so that I could save the MPG as a gif,
and import it into flash. However, whenever I attempt to import WMV that I've converted into
MPGs into Ulead, I always get an error and Ulead shuts itself down. This ONLY happens with MPGs that
were once WMVs. Does anyone know how I can fix this, or know of a better way to convert a....

Winsor Mccay
A Pioneer in Animation (0) Hello folks. I just thought I would share one of my favorite cartoonists that you may not have heard

of the things he did in his life and I bought a dvd with early animation shorts he did, some of
which are amazing even to today's standards. Winsor McCay, to put it simply, did it "the hard
way." Hand drawing hundreds and sometimes thousands of individual pictures to make h....
