"but my animation is not finished"

How much have YOU made? Links to what you've done so far; you're not doing yourself a favor.

[SoulBlast]

Its hard to explain...like this is an animation made by minianimations....it starts with an intro text, than a mini animation, next a text, next a mini animation, following text and finish with other mini animation.

Heres the 3rd mini animation of the main animation.

This is crap, that why I need help to make the other mini animations and to add text and sounds...Im a begginer.

If you're a beginner, how do you expect to get any better without practice. I'll be honest with you, your animations show a healthy sign of talent. Keep in mind that animation is a talent that requires lots of patience. All you need to do is observe other animations to see where you can improve yours. Things that I noticed were tween frame issues and physics issues. For example, during the back-flip, the character travels in almost a straight line as opposed to in an arc. The animation as a whole seems good, but requires more in between frames. This will give a generally smoother look. Animation is ultimately a balancing act of frames, and how many you need to deliver to make something look good. General rule of thumb when starting out is, if you don't know how many, more is better. You don't want your animation looking choppy, and the more frames you use, the higher you can set the FPS to compensate and balance out the actions.

Is the animation @ 30 FPS? If not, set to that and reupload.

Lol, I understand your point, but I have a lot of questions, thats why I want some "pro" help. I´ve practice a lot, but I need a person who can help me...

I know of about 100 people who can help you out. Just post here:

Remember that the more brains you can get to work on one problem the better. The flash forum is intended for people like you. Just ask the questions you have and as a whole, the FF will try to answer it for you. Just remember, be self motivated. Use the built in documentation provided by flash, it's really all you need (F1).

He told you what to do, now listen. work on it yourself and when you need opinions or have questions you post the specifics here and we will try to help you the best we can, most regs here have a pretty good knowlege of flash so we will answer your questions, but no one person will be willing to take the time edvery day just to advise your animation. understand?

[SoulBlast]

Ok, then can someone tell me a good twenning tutorial or something, because I havent seen good tutorials, about that. Just seen motion tweens with a stupid ball. Because I use fbf animation, but takes so much time, I really need something faster...Do you know any tuto?
I saw negrounds tuto but that really doesnt hel me a lot.

Yes. Learn the method before you apply it to animations.

Once you can tween and rotate a ball - you can tween and rotate anything.

I know the teory, but I cant do it in flash. =(

Listen, there's no other solution to your issue other than trial and error. There is no tutorial that's going to teach you exactly how to do it, you have to learn. Gradually. With experience. So go and try your best, and if you have any questions, ask. And what I mean by that is be specific, down to the detail. What do you want to know?

Please also keep in mind that animation is subjective. Everyone does things just a little bit differently and that's what works for them. Everyone has their own style. You need to build your own set of habits and your own style, on your own.

What is most used in animations, tweening or fbf, what do you prefer, why?

I only use fbf, because I dont know the how to use the other style.

Most professional animators (if not all) use mostly FBF. However, there are times you can get away with tweening for time-saving purposes; for example, if you had a rocket ship flying up, you don't have to draw it each frame; you can draw the ship, have smoke coming from under it, maybe show wind rushing by the ship, and tween the ship quickly to the top.

Keep practicing FBF though, it'll get you much further than tweening will.
