Flash is a flexible and multifaceted tool. From Animation to Programming, non-linear narratives to web game design, there is much that this tool has to offer. For first time users, the program may seem sprawling, unintuitive and sometimes confusing, but Flash is much simpler to learn if you think of it as a collection of tools. You can learn and USE parts of the program independently, as little toolsets in themselves, and gradually accumulate and integrate these tools together. To the left is a collection of useful flash tutorials.
If you are familiar with Flash, do them in any order you please.
Note: These tutorials assume you are using Flash CS4 (download trial here), and they will be using Actionscript 2.0.
