i just figured id share this with everyone im sure yall know about it already and im just being a moron , buuut if you draw a sketch with the paint brush tool, you can make an awesome graphic with it, just copy the sketch and insert a new symbol, graphic and paste the picture on the first frame.
Then insert a new keyframe, highlight the pic and go to Modify>optimize and setthe horizontal bar allmost all the way to the left, and itll optimize the pic just a bit, insert another keyframe and highlight the pick and optimize it just a bit further, copy the second keyframe, and insert a fourth keyframe and paste the second keyframe there, go to Control>loop playback, and then play it and you have an awesome moving graphic!!!
the great thing about theseis that they catch the eye alot more then a plain still pick does because the eyes have to adjust to the little bits of motion in the picture, thus making them look more and keep their attention longer, a good example of a picture like this is toolgods intro to his site(awesome dude) or the pic in my profile, not as impressive but gets the point across. good luck!!
hope this helped someone >.<
