I Want To Make Graphics And Flash. Were do I start?

[Shortyjtl00 0]

I have been designing websites for a long time and something that I have always been interested in is flash and graphics. I have looked around a bit at some software but I'm not sure what I need and I don't want to make the mistake of buying the wrong software considering how expensive it can be. So what is the best way to start and what software should I get? Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Do you have Photoshop?It's very easy to make animations using Photoshop.I'll try and find some tutorials i learnt from, but mostly its best to just experiment.Also the obvious choice would be Macromedia Flash.

Which photoshop should I use, Adobe Photoshop CS3? Also I found something for flash, but I'm not sure if its what you were talking about. Flash CS3 Professional.

Tbh, get cs2, great for beginers, not many tutorials using cs3 (i have it) but their really not different, just different places of things, if ur used to cs2, then get cs3, because you can find things easy while doing tuts (bigggest difference is just where everything is) So just get cs2 if your a beginer, if u want a trial go to http://www.photoshop.com/ and u should get it (it automatically redirects to adobe's photohsop page)

well, seeing as you want to integrate it, go with flash. you will need to learn ActionScript to make it worth your while. its not that hard of a language, and it pays off a lot. as for graphics, get Photoshop CS3 or CS2. i use CS2 and Macromedia Flash 8. both are really good programs. but for web design, i would suggest flash, not animations because flash is more customizable. also, javascript is really helpful when putting in flash.
