Can you create animations with Macromedia Flash 8?

Absolutely.  Flash is wonderful for animating vector shapes, and save the output at a very small file size.  If you're new to Flash, it can be a little intimidating the first time you open it up.  i can recommend a book to start you off.. Flash MX: Training from the Source by Jen DeHaan. The step by step tutorials will definately get you going with animations, as well as some of the other powerful features for web development. Good luck!

Try with LiveSwif 2.2, it's free and you can design your own animations in the way you would do it with Macromedia

If you want to create a flash animation, try going to http://www.adobe.com to look for flash products. Here is a link to Flash Professional 8, but the price for the software is pretty steep.\n\nIf you want to create GIF animations, and if you're a beginner, I would download Paint Shop Pro 8, which comes with an animation program. http://shopping.yahoo.com/p:Jasc%20Paint%20Shop%20Pro%208%20Software:1991254499

Just to clarify - you can't use flash to build your own website, but you can build your own website that uses flash.  Probably the easiest way to do this if you don't have experience with websites or with flash is to get a copy of Macromedia Studio.  Unless you can borrow a friend's it's going to cost a decent chunk of change.  But using that (it has Dreamweaver and Flash and Fireworks for graphics), you could pretty easily follow a built in tutorial to get a quick site up and running that uses flash

Flash games are programmed using the scripting language called "Action script".  I can be accessed by selecting any frame in the time line and either right clicking (depending on the version of Macromedia flash you are using) on either a MovieClip or button you have created and selecting "Action" or just click on a MovieClip or button you have created and press f9.  \n\nTo help you get started here is a short line of Action script code, which will make it so when you press the right, left, up or down key the object will move around.  \n\n1. draw a circle in flash\n2. select all of the circle (hold ctrl press "a") right click on it an convert it to a symbol (a movie clip).  \n3. click on circle mc(movie clip) and press f9 and paste this code\n\n\nonClipEvent (enterFrame) {\nif (Key.isDown(Key.RIGHT)) {\nthis._x += 3;\n} else if (Key.isDown(Key.LEFT)) {\nthis._x -= 3;\n} else if (Key.isDown(Key.UP)) {\nthis._y -= 3;\n} else if (Key.isDown(Key.DOWN)) {\nthis._y += 3;\n}\n}\n\n\n\n4. hold ctrl and hit enter key \n5. Move the object around by pressing either the up, down, right or left key\n6. Good luck and have fun :)\n\nhttp://www.flashkit.com this has tons of tutorials on how to get started with flash gaming as well as other things flash related.

I'd to use SWiSHmax 1. It is very easy to use and convinent. And the price is also lower than Studio Flash. \n\nHere is the discription:\nSWiSHmax has everything you need to create stunning fully interactive Flash animations. You can create shapes, text, buttons, sprites, and motion paths. You can also include more than 230 ready-to-use animated effects including explode, vortex, 3D spin, and wave. You can create your own effects or make an interactive movie by adding actions to objects. A scripting language allows you to program sophisticated operations into your animations. You can preview your animation inside SWiSHmax without launching a browser or external player, and live editing lets you make changes while the animation is playing. SWiSHmax creates all the files you need to upload to your Web server, or you can generate the HTML code to paste into an existing Web page. \n\nhttp://www.download.com/SWiSHmax/3000-6676_4-10223922.html?tag=lst-6-3

Well, If you have the Macromedia Flash Program (Like Flash Mx 2004 or Flash 8) Then you can make videos. If not, you can buy it off ebay or the internet.(easiest place to find it)\n\nThere is really no other program that will make as good quality as Macromedia, and if you need help making Flash, look up some Tutorials on google.

Hi there. That animation is created using Macromedia Flash (Now called Adobe Flash). Its a software for creating graphic, animation, interactive presentations, and web applications. It can also be used to edit videos.\n\nYou can try the software by downloading the trial version at http://www.adobe.com/products/flash/flashpro/\n\nActually, there are several more software/programs which you can use to create animations like that. Some of these software/programs are free. You can try to take a look at\nhttp://search.yahoo.com/search;_ylt=A0geup9YvUpFqEABYQBXNyoA?p=graphic+and+animation+software%2Bdownload&prssweb=Search&ei=UTF-8&fr=ytff1-&x=wrt

Depends on what you want it to do. Download the latest flash (Flash 8) and load it up. There are many many tutorials on making flash and aspects to it (menus, websites, animations, games). Just remember to also learn a bit of Actionscript to give your movies/games an edge and to be able to provide functionality. All files will be saved as .fla extention and when tested, will also create an importable .swf format file.
