free flash program?

tw0nk

Hi, I want to start using flash on my website and I was wondering what is the best flash program ie ease of use and beginner in mind. Also it must be freeware, I know im asking a lot!

I presume the original-and-best would be um.. the best. It's not freeware, but if you can work quickly (within 30 days), then Macromedia have a free trial available (direct linkage).

It's a big mofo file though, so if you're on a pay-as-you-use dial-up connection, you might prefer getting it off one of those computer magazines, otherwise set getright or whatever you have to d/l it overnight and turn off your comp when done.

On a related topic:
Im starting flash and would like to include it on my websites. Are there any free tutorials on the web that are good for beginners, stuff like doing up a small logo or lettering etc and saying how to incorporate it onto a html page?

Look up Swish - it ain't free but its a cheap alternative - 30 bucks I think.
