Time, Practice, some artistic skills, patience, and some knoledge with computers and shadows, its not all that hard really, just play around with flash for a while, and you will get it eventually..

[LaserKarl]

Its called training, experience and patience.

You'll have to get to be familiar with all those for a starter. Then i'll guess you'll be on your way.
Theres no shortcuts

First, you need to have artistic abilities. If it didn't come to you yet, then practice drawing and get some lessons to further improve your artistic ability. Second, you need time and dedication to put into flash cartoons and work on the drawings for awhile. If you want a good outcome, taking time on your drawings is key. Third, if you are artistic but have troubles drawing with your mouse, just go out and buy a drawing tablet.

ok, thanks. Now I'm thrilled to practice. just a question though, how do you fill the stage with a background color? The paint bucket tool, when i pressed it onto the stage didn't work. so this means the mac flash prof 8 isan't like paint? how do you make a color background? ty

[Go0gley]

Just draw a rectangle filled with the colour as big as the stage. Or you could go to Modify > Document and change the bg colour.

You're impatient, and stupid. There's your problem, you're stupid.

Yes, because I used it as a method creating vector based images, because it's better than paint.

How will he learn if he dont ask anyone? And the fact that some guys allready have answered his questions dont make you look any better.

There's no right or wrong attitude =\ a thing called freedom of speech exists on the internet too.

Vector uses pure math to get a perfect image no matter how much you zoom in. I would say it's a pretty good idea if you're making a website and you don't like people stealing your png or having pixelated images.

I learned by myself, and I'm fine.

Flash as website ... What is with usability?

Freedom of speech is one thing, but insulting people is just not nice. simple as that.

Could be tought love, or I could have just felt like being a cunt. I don't think he'll be drinking hot oil because of what I said, so let's not waste our time arguing.
