Hi folks,
Sorry to be such a rookie here, but I figure if I can get help anywhere, it
would be from among this illustrious crew. I'm a Flash neophyte, basically
purchased Flash 4, went through the Macromedia FLASH 4! book as closely as
possible, worked through the exercises, and have been able to create some
decent animations and a frames-based website with some minor interactivity
(buttons that target a frame window, that pop and change on rollover).
Still, I look at some of the things you folks have created and it makes the
head spin with envy!
My lofty goal is to become outstanding in Flash as quickly as possible, but
I'm not quite sure what the best roadmap to get there is. I have my own
company, usually work alone from home, and am unclear on what the best
strategy is to systematically learn the higher levels of what Flash can do.
I'd appreciate any input you guys can give me, preferably from those of you
who really zoned in on Flash and became successful at it within, say, a
1-year time frame or so (if that's possible).
Thanks a lot!
Rocky Buckley
