This week we have to ask the blog world for tips on something instead of giving advice. My question this week is…
I need to learn Flash and quick….anyone have a good online course/site for me. Also, anyone know of good template (?) sites to build a site?
For more WFMW, go see Shannon.
I happen to be a Flash developer, I learned mostly from books and web sites. What are you trying to learn it for? It’ll make a difference whether you’re trying to learn Flash animation vs. Flash Actionscript programming (or a combination of the two, which is what I do). Some of the best sites I’ve come across are:
http://www.flashkit.com
http://www.kirupa.com
http://www.w3schools.com
http://www.actionscript.org
But really, it’s easiest to just look up a tutorial for what you are trying to do in Google and see if you can find a forum. As for books, I’ve used the Friends of Ed books, the O’Reilly books, and the Flash for Dummies books, but I started by just going through the User Manual that comes with Flash, it covers the basics of using the software (Or the Flash Bible, but get it from the library instead of buying it!).
Feel free to ask me any questions about Flash too, it always helps to talk to someone who’s been there before. Good luck!
