Re: FLASH: A Newbie: On Curtis Hillman book "Flash Web Design"

[ifx]

I have Hillman's book and I don't think it's intended for "newbie". I

suggest that you take a step back and look into one of the other Flash books

on the market that is more focused on the fundamentals. I'd recommend taking

a look at the "Flash 4 visual quick start" and maybe some of the tutorials

on the web. Once you get the basics down, then you will have an easier time

with the more advanced tutorials... or you will at least be able to spot and

decipher errors as you find them...instead of just getting confused and

frustrated.
