...saviour of the universe! So sang Queen. But they were not, alas, referring to this fab product which, while not possessing universe-saving properties nor a natty dress sense, would at least have impressed Ming the Merciless enough to divert him from his evil plans. Getting back on topic...even if you haven't heard of *Macromedia* ...

When I first used Macromedia Flash 5 I was pleasantly suprised how user friendly the package was, considering it did look very complicated when I first opened the program. After followig each interactive lesson included in the package I was able to create simple but effective animation sequences within minutes. The screen ...

There are already lots of reviews of this bit of software so I will focus on that application of it. Flash is one of the ?industry standard? pieces of software for enhanced web interface development, for integrating sound, animation and motion graphics. It is very widely used in fact the Banner ad at this top of this page has ...

I first started using the Internet in 1995, and compared to today's websites most were unimaginative to say the least. As time went on I noticed websites getting more and more sophisticated utilising different web technologies. The websites that I thought were most attractive and interactive contained Macromedia Flash. Whole websites ...

The best thing about FLash nowadays is that its being incorporated into more and more systems so that you dont need to go off and download any plugins anymore. In ...

I praise the day that I first used Macromedia Flash in the Office. I was a complete newby back then, using Flash Version 2, which I found on a demonstration CD from PC Pro. I have since become very involved in the use of Macromedia's products, Flash 5 being my most frequently used. If you are new to using Flash 5, it would be wise to ...

Macromedia Flash 5, or Flash for short, is a software program that creates Flash animations for the web. It retails for around $400 or there abouts. Many websites are adopting Flash as the ability to fast generate impressive presentations and other graphic are endless with it. Many websites are entirely Flash dependant. Around ...

Before flash there was just animated GIFs and super large embedded AVIs and MOVs on everybody's page. These took very long to load up, and denied webusers a smooth surfing experience. Then the age of Flash dawned upon us and super-small file sizes and great vector-based images emerged onto our desktop screens. However it was not until ...

Flash 5 It is obviously the Web's standard mulitimedia plug-in because it can create high-quality files in small downloadable packages. It is hard to create presentations and movies in it due to the various tools, and layers. This makes it quite annoying. It is also very time-consuming. It is cheap on student ...

Wow, where do we start, I think this piece of kit is fantastic; there is so much you can do, and is all so simple to create. I've been using Flash 5 at my college, and have found it to be an excitement with the wonderful creations, which can be completed. Basically, for those who do not know Flash 5, can be used for making those ...

Flash 5 represents a significant upgrade from its predecessor, making it a "must have" for any serious web developer who wants to develop high-impact web content. The improvements are not superficial, instead Flash 5 impressively enhances the developer's ability to design, develop, and deploy. This tool is the resource for anyone who ...

Many of you have probably already heard of Macromedia’s Flash since 96% of the Internet population has downloaded the player. For those 4% who haven’t heard of it, Flash is a way for webmasters (or flashmasters) to produce dynamic animations or games with ease. Flash 5 is the latest to come out and I’m lucky enough to have it ...

I find it truely amazing the amount of people who can wax lyrical about the wonders of Flash. True enough, it has revolutionised the way we can see the internet, and has been used and abused in many entertaining ways - but the very fact that Macromedia has this market all to itself (apart from Adobe's current non-starter LiveMotion) ...

Thats what i believe anyway. Bringing a new generation of web graphics/site looks. Its a new idea which makes flash so good i think. So many people make so many graphic suits and general web development packages, and every once in a while something pops up that new. So whats so good about it? Well the graphics that can be made so easily, a click ...

What can I say - macromedia have done it again. FLash is now in its 5th incarnation and gets better and better with each one. Its come a long way from the far cries of FutureShock - which was the original incarnation of Flash, and now includes amazing new features like Smart Clips, improvd shared media libraraies, better ...

I've been using Flash since version 3, so for me the arrival of 5 was a major event. My reaction when it arrived? At first, disappointment, but after using it for a while and getting used to its quirks, I have to say that going back to version 4 is now a real struggle. The differences might initally seem cosmetic -- the interface has ...

To be a web designer these days, you have to know Flash. Like Photoshop was a couple of years ago, it has become the web creation package of choice for everyone who's anyone in the web design world. And that includes me. Hehe. Never before has it been so easy to create such striking effects, and Flash, when you become more ...

I've seen loads of websites using Flash but I never really knew just how good it is. Having just purchased Flash 5, I have to say that it is probably THE best piece of software for creating animations to be used on the net. The interface isn't the simplist to understand and use, but after a few hours using it you begin to get the hang of ...
