Re: FLASH: Need drawing tips

I beg to differ here Steve,


Flash is a drawing program!  Why not just draw in Flash using the Flash

tools! You may be a whiz at drawing in Illustrator, Freehand or some other

drawing program, but doesn't that defeat the purpose, and make more work for

yourself? If it took time for you to learn all those other programs, then

take the time to learn Flash's drawing capabilities and in the end save

yourself a lot of time. Who knows you may get better results and learn a

whole new way of drawing!!! i.e.:

P.S. Yes I drew all of them by hand in Flash, all 27 frames of them, and yes

I did learn a whole new way of drawing, a new technique and one that I

enjoy!
