Is there any sort of freeware Flash program? For use with webpages and such. My friend is interested in trying to learn to use it, however the macromedia suite is a bit above our price range, so is there any option for a free license or program with which to do this?

Appreciate any input.

Not really. I dont know how much swish costs but Flash isnt free in anyway. But I would be disobeying my oath to keep illegal information away by telling u how to get a free version of flash.

It's very hihj-quality, and easy to use software, plus it's a small download and best of all it's free. Unfortunately there is a two week trial period. There are a few other things out there though, I'll see if I can find a link to a page with a whole stash of 'em a while ago.

I used SwishMax to make the header for my website, if you want to see how easy it is to make something:

Interesting, Swish looks really promising.. aside from the trial period

But we might give it a try anyways.

Open to other ideas yet as well though (:

Try Firestarter. I can't remember if it's freeware or shareware, though.

You could use the ming library in PHP to generate flash movies. But I guess that would be a tad tedious if you want to learn how to use flash...

Get Adobe Livemotion. it's discontinued, so i doubt anyone will care if you warez it.

its MUCH easier to use than Flash MX, yet LM still powerful enough to compete with MX.

The University of North Carolina has finally found a network server that, although missing for four years, hasn't missed a packet in all that time. Try as they might, university administrators couldn't find the server. Working with Novell Inc., IT workers tracked it down by meticulously following cable until they literally ran into a wall. The server had been mistakenly sealed behind drywall by maintenance workers.
