Are there any good programs I can download anywhere that are somewhat like Flash? I'm a cheap bastard and I don't feel like paying for something I can use at school.

There is only Flash. Flash and Silverlight. Is Silverlight free?

Gimp does flash?

Gimp does not do flash, but it does do .gif animation.

And just buy the new CS3 set from Adobe, its worth your money, and it comes with Flash, which is totally awesome!!!

Why are you so insistent on piracy?

As good as it is, Photoshop isn't worth $700.

Why buy something when you can get away with stealing it

Fullmetal_Steeb · « **Reply #16 on:** February 04, 2008, 07:07:13 PM »

That's the spirit!

Exactly my point.

It'll all work itself out once you begin to realize that the stuff you're stealing isn't even worth the bandwidth you're using because small/big dev shops alike can't afford to dedicate more R&D/Testing/Etc. into their products and just release the same crap with the a different number just to squeeze money out of people that actually pay for software. I guess you're like Robin Hood, right?

There was more sarcasm in my response then actual feelings. I would like to torrent things but I have wifi and it is slower then crap and I have never really understood how to do somethings when it comes to torrents...
