Over the past few years I have been steadily improving my Flash development skils, to the point where I now consider myself an expert in just about all aspects of Flash, including Actions Script. You could call it a hobby gone out of control. I have never been a big enthusiast of flash websites, as they tend to put barriers in the way of getting to the information faster. For certain type of sites, however, Flash can be useful in disguising a lack of content, or making boring content more appealing. I got attracted to flash after having created a couple of flash modules, and realizing the there was so much that I still had to learn about actionscript in order to mine the full potential of flash. Actionscript appealed to my sense of logic, and the love affair started there. I still have much to learn about Actionscript 2.0, but my knowledge of Actionscript 1.0 is sufficient to do just about anything that I one imagine in flash.
