I realized early on that the majority of Flash users do not know ActionScript. And many of those that do know ActionScript have just a basic understanding of it. So what happens is you have a couple million Flash users who are relegated to creating simplistic Flash projects. I knew from experience that I could unlock the power of Flash without ever writing one line of code. And I also knew that there wasn't another book like this on the market. I had to fill that void.

Well, Flash has built-in tools that allow everyone to harness its power without writing lines of code. Many users know about these tools but don't realize how powerful they are. I've been using these tools for years and have developed my own method; this method has created some very powerful Flash projects.

Yes, this method works in all versions, from Flash 4 to Flash CS5. I've taught this method to people who had never even opened their Flash program before. It's a method that everyone, regardless of computer ability, can master.

In over ten years of working in Flash I've never turned away a Flash project. I've created everything from sophisticated quizzes that give the user their correct percentage, to video games, to casino type games that keep track of your winnings. In all my years in working with Flash, I have always found a way to create my projects no matter how sophisticated. And the best part is, Flash is fun again. Originally, Flash was an easy to use program that was created primarily for designers. Now, with the latest versions, Flash has been created for programmers. So non-programmers have had a hard time to do too much. Even creating a button in Flash CS4 has become a process; you now have to create a separate file just for the button to work. If you're a programmer, then it's great. If you're not a programmer it can be very frustrating.

The response has been overwhelming. When you start to think about the 2,000,000 + users that have been struggling in Flash for years, this books solves many of their problems. A Flash book that makes learning Flash easy and fun. Thousands of illustrations help guide the reader making the process as relatively painless.

The hardcover is available, but if people want to download the book immediately then can go to the Flash Book page. I've included more information about the book. Also, anyone who purchases the book and email me with any questions. I always enjoy helping people learn Flash.
