Hey,:dive:
i'm working on my brother's website in which he would like anamation done to his first page (index.html)
Problems i keep bumping into are:

i would like the flash to be half of the main page... what size would that be?

Thanks for looking, awaiting responses!

There are countless ways to achieve this. The simplest is doing a motion tween. You will have to be more specific if you want a more detailed answer. I would also suggest looking at some Flash Forums and Tutorial sites for more info.

Well, nobody can answer that until we know what the size of your brother's page is to start with. Most pages are still done in 800x600, but again, we don't know what the page is, so nobody can give you an answer without more info first.

Is there a "dummies guide" for this on line somewhere? Not a book, but a page or two that explains the simplest way to achieve (a) create a flash animation, (b) embed it into your website?
