Flash is $400? *Sweatdrop*

[Flaedo]

Please..please tell me my eyes have decived me. I just went to flash.com, and they're selling Flash MX 2004 for $400.
I know its a really great program and huge companies use it for their ads, and they make gobs of money, but what about us little guys? Us littles guys who just wanna make animations?

If anyone knows of any Financial loophole (pffft, yeah right XD) or If my sight hath betrayed me, please tell me. I'm just a guy who want's to make Flash's. Is their any super like, last century Flash program that I could use for a smaller price? I'm only 13 for gods sake! *sob*

*wishes he had seen $4.99 instead*

[geist-seig]

matters where you buy it.. shop around..

[buster126]

If your a student you can get the student version for $100. Thats pretty much as cheap as it goes.

[Flaedo]

I'm totally willing to use a low tech one, if anyone knows of...one...
(P.S. I know about the 30 day trial thing, and I'ma spring for it.)

[Flaedo]

Damn, everybody's rich!
Y'know, I always look at the crap animations that are being sent in every day. (I.E. Chaos Stickfight?) And I wonder to myself.....How the hell did this 5 year old get ahold of a $400 flash program?

[NegativeONE]

You don't need a dime to give the trial a shot, and there are free alternatives.

[Flaedo]

I'm stuck with GIF making programs.
*makes tiny little guy waving, this punching another random guy*
It just...*sob* doesn't feel....right...

[Zen-Zinxe]

Lol i heard flash was like 800$ but meh what do i know. I got my program as a present. But like the other guy said, shop around or look around other BBS posts.

[Flaedo]

What were those free alternatives you were talking about, NegativeONE?

[Justice-Fish]

The illegal ones...

[Moosh]

lmao...theres something called "LiveSwf" google it

Don't worry, your flashes will be like that one day!

[Glaiel-Gamer]

I thought it was 700?

[ZombieLincoln]

The student version isn't such a bad price, and you could always try eBay .

[tatnellG]

If anyone knows of any Financial loophole

its illegal to talk about such things.

Why does everyone around here think 'OMG hes talking about illegal stuff' as soon as anybody asks if there is a way to get Flash for free? A financial loophole is no getting software for free illegally, it's something such as a way for you to get the program for free legally.

The student version is pretty cheap compared to the 'proper' version, and it does the same job.

It's called a free trial. I'm sure it's floating around on the Flash website somewhere.

[OooShiny]

The best deal I've found so far: http://www.academics..amp;qk_srch=Flash+MX

The reason I am suggesting this is because I can't find another academic version that allows K-12 students to purchase it - enjoy (if you buy it)!

[azzazin]

i got flash mx pro 2004 for free , lol. didint realize how valuable it is. ahh well...

[Inglor]

If you can prove to me you're a student I don't mind selling you an mx 2004 student ver... then again I doubt you really can

[OooShiny]

What do you need for proof, anyways (also, how'd you get it for free?!)?

Well to get it for free, all you need to do is download the trial. Then visit your favourite crack site and find flash mx 2004 code on it. Type it in when you register and voila!

If you're going to get flash now might as well wait until Flash 8 comes out.

[HaroFreak]

Flash is a very powerful and even possibly The most versatile Animation program available for the general public.

Compared to some programs of equivalent power, $100 USD is not much.

This is to Incredible Sausage, k.
