Hm.
You don't really need a flash animation for this kind of information.. You can get the same info from the help file. And much better one. If this is for the beginners, who has absolutely no previous experience with Flash, you can't assume that they know about layers and frames and stuff. "This is a layer" and that's it? "That's about everything you need to know..". Really?
Internet is full of tutorials for the beginners and sorry to say but they are usually much better.
