This article gives you the basics of creating a simple animation in Macromedia Flash.

STEPS :
1. Open Macromedia Flash 10
2. Choose frame 1 on the timeline which is located above the canvas.
3. Draw whatever you want to in your first frame (eg: a stick figure).
4. Choose the next frame depending upon the length of your animation
5. Right click on the frame and click "Insert KEYFrame".
6. Right click anywhere between the first and the last frame and select "Create Motion Tween". Now the same picture you drew in the first frame will appear in the last frame you made.
7. Edit this picture in any way. You can change its size, position or other effects such as alpha, tint, etc. They appear when you right click on the object and click "Properties".
8. Press
