I started using my Flash Professional just yesterday. I've had experience with it a couple of years ago when I was in my Web Mastering class in high school, but I haven't used Flash since then, so my skills with it is moderately rusty. What encouraged me to use it again was when I started surfing a site called "NuRPG". Apparently, it is a site that consists of stories that is of pure fantasy and contains made-up characters and creatures like dragons and werewolves. The stories written by the authors that stayed at the site often have been worked on very diligently, and that means they are good stories with good plots in them. If you are interested, go to www.geigercount.net, and while you are there, go to the NuRPG Homepage link and you're there. I am thinking that what is a huge step is turning those stories into short animation movies, so that is why I mentioned Flash. I have not mastered the skills of using programs that make animations yet, but it will be a blast when I do. I did contact the leader and we talked. I will be attending courses in the fall that focuses on my major, which is Digital Communication, and for once, I have beenattending with subjectsthat are considered fun to me. I never liked school, but it is only because I had to learn stuff that I never found fun like History and English.
