You can now LEGALLY get Flash 8 for free

It's much faster

Cons:

It doesn't come with all the retarded, laggy, glitchy tools and functions that are completely unnecessary, slow, and confusing that Adobe added to recent versions of flash.

Go with Flash 8 Professional.

so where can i legally get this flash 8?

i own flash, and everyone is telling me that i should animate with macromedia. i have seen videos of macromedia and it looks very similar, can someone tell me the pro's and cons to macromedia.

well from my personal experience, learning to draw is very difficult if you are not already good at it. i personally am pretty awful at drawing. but i am sure there are ways to learn. in my opinion, i find that working off a template is easier than starting from scratch. for example, i animate madness character, so whenever i need a new character, i get the standard character and add on to it.

That's precisely the problem. You didn't post something you made from scratch. You posted someone else's work, therefore you engaged in copyright infringement, which is illegal.

Covers are not a bannable offense on NG, it's more likely that he was banned for using samples from the original song... Or his definition of a "cover" is taking a song, pitch shifting it, then uploading. Either way, it's impossible to tell, as the song is no longer on the site, which means he can't prove he didn't steal anything, and we can't give him a concrete reason why he was banned (Unless the mod that banned him pipes up).

That aside, you are better off uploading an original song first either way, covers are allowed here, but we discourage from uploading a cover as your first submission. Also, the rules are right above the submit button on the audio submission page. They're really not that hard to find.

no it was made complete by scratch. we used nothing from the actual recording of the song. we played everything on our own. and to answer your other question i post covers of songs i like so i am allowed use them in animations and still win money. if i just used the normal song i wouldn't receive any money

No, no, no, no, no, no! That's also not allowed under the rules of the AP.

Just make a new account and start again.

oh my bad.,.. but isnt it also against the rules to make 2 accounts?

No, it's not. The staff will however delete accounts upon request if you abuse the system using multiple accounts, such as having an account specifically for trolling the forums or harassing other people (They have your IP address, they'll know who's doing it).

Half the people on newgrounds have more than a single account, as long as you're using it as you would your "main account", there shouldn't be a problem.

ok good then, but can someone send me the rules, because im not sure how why i got banned for doing a cover of a song. i gave full credit to the real people who made the song and specifically said that it was a cover and i take no credit in the making of the actual song. plus i think its a bit stupid that you dont get a warning before being banned forever. because im confused. i got banned for doing a cover of a song, but i see people do it all the time

does anyone have a vcam that will work on actionscript 3.0 all i can find are vcams that work on 2.0, and i really want one on 3.0

i am not really sure what i did wrong to get banned from the audio portal. i figured out when i tried to submit a song to the portal. can someone help me?

uh oh. sorry to be the one to tell u this, but when the animation crashes when its saving, it makes it corrupted and unusable, sry

i have been using a vcam for the past few days now. it works perfectly, but the only problem is that whenever the scene changes, the quality setting keeps changing back to medium, does anyone know how to set it to stay on what the quality was in the previous scene

hey i am trying to make some halo characters for madness odst, but have fallen flat when i try and draw a brute. does anyone have any ideas or sprites. here is the picture of the odst. i feel like i need to have a lot of detail, but whenever i try to draw it, it comes out wrong.

i would also be willing to let someone join a red army productions if they are able to draw one for me

yeah i agree it is best to figure out the audio before starting the real animation

yeah, sned me the end product. im in need of a vcam

i do a combination of both. for long movements, i use tween. for short small movements i use frame by frame

yeah but it crashes soooo often, not at random times, more like at 5- 15 min intervals

that looks great i tryed to do the same in flash but i can never get the colors to be so vivid. what do you do??!!! is it just colors or am i missing an effect?

is anyone else having a problem where flash cs4 consistently crashes and you loose all of your work that you havent saved? i have called flash but they have been no help at all. plz help me it gets rly annoying to have to do stuff over again and again

how do you work a vcam. whenever i paste it into my animations a jumbled file says that action script 3.0 cant compile or something. help!!!!!

how do you start to accept revenue? i started to animating and i wanted to actually be able to start making money off of it. can someone help me with how to ad advertisements?

well the front page is just for people who have amazing submissions. i think its fair to have them on for a while. plus it must suck for tom Fulp to go on the site everyday to update the submissions on the front page, or it might just be the sheer fact that there isnt many good submissions to take the place of the current ones.

still didnt fu*king work the numbers didnt go up to 770 or 100

hi i need help with animating people with full range of motion. right now i animate madness but i want to move on with people who have attached limbs. i have been messing around with it, but i have not found a smooth surefire way to animate objects with attached limbs. if someone wound send me a tutorial or tell me it would be much appreciated.
