Flash 8 is a powerful tool created by Macromedia that has overcome the best expectations of its creators.
Macromedia
Flash was originally created in an effort to realize colorful
animations for the web as well as to create animated GIFs.
Designers,
web professionals and amateurs have selected Flash 8 by many reasons.
Further we will see why Flash 8 is interesting.

The
possibilities of Flash are extraordinary, each new version has
outstripped the previous one, and the present Flash 8 is not an
exception. Although its common usage is to create animations (during
this tutorial we will see how easy it is) it has far more
applications. They are so numerous that all web designers should learn
how to use Flash.
Flash
has been made up in order to fix the great lack in the Internet: that
is, Dynamism. This dynamism does not imply only animations but rather
interactive animations, which allow users to see the web as something
attractive, not static (unlike most of the pages that are made by the
use of the HTML language). With Flash we can easily and quickly
create animations of all types.
It
is easy to learn how to handle Flash, it has a friendly environment
that invites us to sit down and spend hours making whatever our
imagination suggests, but that is not sufficient to be preferred by
professional designers. Then what is it?

There
are companies that improve their products just by the economic
necessity. When it happens, users promptly notice this by the few
improvements in the newer version. That is not the case of Flash 8,
which continues considerably improving the new versions of its
products following the Macromedia tradition.
If
we thought that Flash 8 MX was already insuperable, do not miss the
improvements that Flash 8 provides. These improvements consist in:
easy handling, higher graphic potency and integration with programs of
image edition, in having ability to import video, possibility to
emulate your mobile devices video oriented, and for the begginers, the
ActionScript wizard has come back. Let us analyze these advantages in
more details:
Attractive Designs:
Flash 8 allows the using of visual effects that will ease the
creation of animations, presentations and forms more attractive and
professional. Moreover, it supplies a new set of tools that will help
you doing this easily and faster, such us filters and blend modes,
added in this version.
Font Optimization:
It also includes some readability options for small sized fonts, what
makes our texts more comfortable to read. Also you can edit this
optimization, allowing you to select the configuration preestablished
for dynamic and static texts.
Consolidated Libraries: Now you can search any object existent in our movies faster, browsing our open libraries from a single panel.
More powerful animation: Flash
8 allows much more control of the interpolations setting a new
edition mode form which you will edit the velocity the rotation,
shape, color and movement are applied.
More powerful graphics: Avoid
the unnecessary representation of vectorial objects setting an object
as a bitmap. Although the object is converted to a bitmap, the
vectorial data remains the same, so, in every moment, you can convert it
again to a vectorial object.
Improvements in video importing: To ease the working with video formats, Flash 8 provides high-quality new independent codec, completely skinnable.
Metadata Compatibility: Include your SWF files in searching engines defining a title, description and/or keywords.
Mobile devices Emulator: Preview your Flash Lite compatible mobile devices movies oriented with the new emulator Flash 8 includes.
ActionScript Wizard: The
ActionScript Wizard has come cack. Was deprecated in the last
version, but now it has been retrieved and improved. Now ActionScript
is at your reach
