What do I read or watch to learn web design with adobe flash cs4?
I have looked all over barnesandnobel.com but I found only like 1 book on web design on flash cs4 but its crap and only 15 dollars. I found tons of book on actionscript/flash cs4 but not on flash web design…should I just study the flash cs4 books and then will web design come to me even though its not a web design book? or wat
Flash is built and used in web design to learn web design you should ideally understand HTML, this is always the starting point of any website even if you plan on making it in flash. Once you have HTML under your belt then move on to flash and building flash websites, although flash’s main purpose is to provide content like games and videos, it is now used for web design or web enhancement due to its interactivity. You will need to look for Action Script 3.0 Tutorials to help you with Flash CS4, Flash CS4 isn’t very old so it maybe a while before books on how to… appear on the open market. Best bet is to look at youtube and just search flash cs4, many tutorials for you to follow. Good luck.
Search the same thing in http://www.adobe.com

here is something funny… Walmart is not known for their book collection but http://www.walmart.com/catalog/product.do?product_id=10742329&sourceid=1500000000000003260340&ci_src=14110944&ci_sku=10742329 is a book that is cheap and will help with the general basics.
see http://www.tripodcomputerservices.com for an example of a flash website that can be designed with that book.

CartoonSmart.com Is what you need! The ideas behind the site and the tutorials are very pleasant and MODERN something that I have not yet found on other sites + you get all of the source files/anything used in the hole tutorial from start to end (so you get the start files, if it its long the middle files, and the end files). I learn best by watching so I would go for these tutorials.
Hope that helps (and I am not part of CartoonSmart.com though I do like their tutorials)
