Thanks for the Help friend..!

If you are confused with Flash MX (which there are a lot of tutorials online for you to view and learn), you might want to try something little more user friendly like Swish 3D.... Now what are you planning to do with your website??? If you are interested in turning certain pictures into 3d objects or use simple 3d shape objects swish 3d would work great for you... And once you become more advance, there is a 3d max plugin to use with swish 3d...

If you dont know of 3d max, it is a complicated graphix software people use for 3d animation... Many professional animation movie makers use it..... Or if you remember about the dancing baby back in the days... It was created by 3d max... Check it out at Erain.com, you could actually look at what type of graphix you could create with swish 3d in their picture and video gallery... pretty neat...

Hope that helped..

Hello I am new in the forum but I recommend to you to use swish is much more facil that Macromedia Flash. I am of Hispanic speech so I do not speak the English very well. LuckFalperez

Yeah I agree aswell, I find the program swish to be alot better than Flash programs... although I am a n00b to flash designs and lacks in skill in this area so my opinion really isn't all that valid. lol

if you plan on using flash for a while and this is not a 1-time flash deal, i'd say go with learning flash and don't get 3rd party softwares such as Swish3D.. The reason is that you're limited to what you can create whereas in Macromedia you have full opportunity at getting into every aspect of flash.. not only that you will also come out with a language/software under your belt.. if you ever plan on designing sites for money, people will see Swish3D on your skills and laugh thinking your new and will never hire you :l

Flash can be intimidating at first, but there are many tutorials out there on the internet to help you get started step by step. If you are willing to spend a little time studying them you will learn alot. Other 3rd party applications do not have all the capabilities and versatility that Flash has. Flashkit is a great resource for any flash user from beginer to advanced. Also Flash comes with tutorials in the help files. In another thread I did suggest a program called Swish that I used for a short time long time ago. It was easy, but I quickly became bored with it.
