macromedia software

I just found a whole bunch of macromedia software in my archive, so i installed it ( it is fairly huge ) but I have no idea where to start,…I just want to create a simple flash anim for the web,…

flash?
freehand?
fireworks?
dreamweaver?

where to start?
<edit> ok never mind,…it would appear ‘flash’ is what i need to start with. I tried to make a sprite move across the screen, but no luck so far. :stuck_out_tongue:

Edited/ Check out www.awn.com and all the new animated series done with flash.

cool! :o thanks once again, cree!
<edit>
I tried the link, but I think you got something wrong on the URL because it took me to ‘Arab World Ministries’. :smiley: [!]

Sorry about that, it’s www.awn.com animation world network and not magazine. I’ll use the disclaimer that world vision uses to differentiate themselves from the other world vision.

Here’s the direct link
