September 11, 2016 (Sun)

Not much today.  Honestly, I'm too poor to go out and do fun things, so I spend pretty much the entire day indoors.

I did manage to do a fun little Flash animation...2 seconds long or so, but with some interesting animation and with sound. 

I still don't have animation down, yet.  I can do simple movement of objects, back, forth, up down, and so on...but rotating things is beyond my grasp as yet.  I thought that if I made my artwork into Flash "symbols" I could attach what are called "Bones" and rotate them that way...and I kind of succeeded.  Problem is, other things got attached and I ended up with something I didn't want.

Still, it's nice that I can fire up Flash and not feel intimidated.  I used to launch PhotoShop, make a couple of marks, then quit because the program was so amazingly complex that I couldn't do anything.  I no longer do that with PhotoShop, and while I would not say I have any grasp of Flash, at least...I can open it and not feel intimidated into immediately quitting.  So there's that.

Thanks for listening, see you tomorrow.
