Best place to learn flash
Hi,
I don’t have much knowledge in flash programming. I need some pointers which site is good for beginners to learn to program flash besides the one from Adobe?

I'm a big fan of the Dummies books. That's where I leanrned to type more gooodely.
I'd suggest a visit to your local Borders, Barnes & Noble, or locally-owned small bookstore. You should be able to find either an Idiot's Guide to Flash Programming or a Flash for Dummies book. Both are great for beginners.

Dear PPTers,
This says "best place to learn flash," not "best place to learn how to flash."
Just thought I'd make this clear.

There are various tutorials on actionscript.org, as well as Flash tutorials on Newgrounds.com.
I learnt all of my Flash knowledge via the 'Actionscript Bible' (copies of it can be floating around on the internet) as well as the Newgrounds flash forum.

Ahh Newgrounds! I haven't been to that site in ages!! Back when flash was in vogue that was the site to be at.

How is it doing? Over-run with children creating terrible stick-man animations, which are being spam-voted to the highest position by other children who think it's "SOO GOOD". It used to be a great place full of creativity - but as with most sites of the nature, has been on the decline ever since flash became popular.

That happened with progressive rock when punk came with their cheap sound and ruined music forever!

I used to check out kirupa.com all the time. It's a pretty nice website for a lot of beginner level and advanced web development tutorials (including flash =] )
