Macromedia Flash Envy
26 December 2005 06:19 AM | Internet and Web
A post and conversation with
DianeV about Macromedia/Adobe products got me
thinking about Flash again. I have always
wanted to build a site with Flash, just to play.
It always looked like a neat technology and I
think it would be fun to build a site with.
But there is always a gotcha: all the cheap Flash clones, that I know about, like Swish, are all on Windows OS only while I use a Mac. That means I would be limited to the "real thing" from Macromedia, and that ain't cheap. (Gosh, I think I could buy a Windows laptop and buy the clone: Swish and I would still pay less than buying Flash from Macromedia.) That is a lot of money just to play around.
If anyone knows of an inexpensive Flash builder for Mac OS X, let me know.
