I really need some flash for my page, but I dont have the money to get the program. how much would it cost me to have someone do it for me? I would love for someone to just pop one out for free, but im guessing thats not going to happen. anyway, if you do flash.....even just a little bit. post your prices below.

oh yeah...I forgot. I do graphic designs and I would be happy to trade some graphics for some flash.

I do flash work, depending on what you need. I have also a good collection of vector graphics which I can legally use for this purpose. Let me know what you have in mind and we can go from there. Also, depending on what you want, I may do it for little or no cost.....we'll talk more about that when I know exactly what you want.

Oh yeah, I almost forgot...... http://www.flashkit.com/ and something called "swish" are easy to use tools which you can develop some cool flash, in like 5 minutes, for free. I still can help, but check these tools out too, as they may help you.

ok- I looked at the site...where did you get the graphics? I would like to use some of them for the intro. I could do something you might not recognize as flash, because I would use your black and white photos...it would also be an interactive intro...you know...mouseover a link and the entire backgroud changes, and so forth. Much better than watching a flash movie I think. What do you think?

sure, that would be great. I mean, I would have to run it by my supervisor, but how much would it cost? Its a really new company and we are struggling a tad on the budget.

depends on the complexity...not more than $100

well, I suppose that I wont be needing any help....imagine if I had to spend even $50 on every flash for every website that I run, or help run. I could buy the program, take a course on it, get books about it, and get a phd in the area for that much.

sorry, I am sure that you are extremely talented in the area, but I think that for my bosses sake, and his wallet...Id better just buy the program and learn it.

no problem!
good flash turorials at:
http://www.designsbymark.com/
and a host of links for flash tutes', examples, and questions at:
http://www.volcanic-design.com/volc_links.htm/
dont forget
http://www.flashkit.com/ for the flashtyper (text effects) and
http://www.swishzone.com/ for another animation program....flashtyper can be used for free, swish costs $30 to register-both are waaaaaaaaaaaay cheaper than buying flash.
