gritto 0 Report post Posted September 30, 2004 before this year, which i'm in CG2 now, i tried learning flash through tuts similar to those, and i could never get it, but i've been learning it for the last 3 class periods,and i've already gotten all the basics and learned far more than i did in the 6 months i tried with tuts, i guess i'm just a hands on kind of guy, but maybe its flash thats difficult to learn with tuts, i dont know, but after getting the basics those tuts are nice Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
