About CS3 and Flash

I've been thinking about getting some training from Zan about using photoshop and flash to animate, so I'm torrenting photoshop right off the bat and I'll start scanning stuff in. The first project I wanna work on is something from CoT. I'm voting for the chibi version of the battle stance of the MC. Other possible votes are the Harlequin stances or even just a simple animation of an attack.

I'll try to learn how to make .gifs first and then we can work from there.

This sounds like a good idea: but first things first. You're going to have to start with the basics.

Walk cycle is probably the easiest thing next to idling, but is the most important, so you should start with that first.

Also, you can put .gifs into Flash?

hey, if it helps any, i have cs4 photoshop and flash on my laptop. randy has copies of both programs, and he may be able to lend it to you.

That would be incredible. Cram hasn't had any luck torrenting Flash. Do you know which version of Flash it is?
