Hurricane,
I'm wondering what software you're using to make your Flash animations?
(I know already how to play them, I'm just interested how you make them)
It's just that I'm interested in fiddling about with something myself, and I was curious as to how you did it all.
"Is it ... magic?" as Leela might say.

i use a compination of programs
well i use a program called Swish to animate them, thats a flash animator.
i also use macromedia flash 5, (another animator) to remove the backgrounds from the images, to make them slot into backgrounds easier.
the drawings are done in good olde paintbrush, but now, thanks to the help of my little brother, i am using a program called pro desktop to create the scenery. (see the tardis lands2 for the moonbase and gravitron, and tardis, drawn in pro desktop).
Because pro desktop is a kinda, technical drawing packages, ie for buildings and architecture stuff, the people will be drawn in paintbrush until i can find a better way.
Hope u enjoyed the resent additions, even if some people dont...

Cheers for the info Hurricane! I'll look into the items you mentioned.
I'm just interested, because I'm subject to those sort of whims - Just to play around with things. A while back it was muddling about with Paintshop Pro (ie, cutting together mock-up DVD covers etc. I even created my own covers for the BF audios given away on Doctor Who magazine!).
I, for one, think the recent "TARDIS landing on the moon" shot was very well done actually. Especially the light flashing after the TARDIS fades in. 
Cheers,
Lance
