P.S, never over use flash, some folk hate it, others just cant read it (always build an alternative html page for flash reader to link to)
if you are building a large site pay for a fast server, my sons site on a fast server, on a slower server you would never see it, you would go sonewhere else first,

Thanks! And yes, I agree with you.
I'm not planning on building entire sites with Flash, but just using flash to insert from time to time.
Other reasons I'm learning flash is because when the demand for building a site in flash is there, I can't deliver that..
Until now, I only use html and CSS.

oh come on, tell the truth,
you are never grow up just like me and always dreampt of making your own animatated cartoons, what kid dos' nt?

Nah, I'm not very much into cartoons
But I do like to animate backgrounds though, like the one I showed earlier.
It's just so cool to finally see the things moving the way I want them to move
