Tizag Tutorials

Found a great "school" for web designers today. Tizag Tutorials is your one-stop shop if you want to pick-up or polish your skills in HTML, CSS, PHP (where I am spending much time lately), or learn all about web hosting.

And best of all ... it's FREE!

9 Tips for Drawing in Flash

Found this great tutorial on how to make a cartoon drawing in Flash from Broder Jakobs. Below's the condensed bullet point version. For details, check out his blog.

1. Make a sketch
2. Use layers
3. Draw lots of circles
4. Mould shapes
5. Use the pencil tool
6. Draw outlines
7. Mess with the lines
8. Paint inside
9. Use gradients

For me though, the best tutorial is a video tutorial, such as this video presentation by Chris Georgenes.
