Just miss Flash

[Egg Bramhill]

I was very fond of using Flash to create animations, using either Flash or Xara's .swf export , it was so simple. But those days have gone. I've yet to find a decent html5 replacement that comes anywhere near as close as Flash re ease of use and file size. I currently use Hippani Animator 5.1 but it appears that this software has now fallen by the wayside too.

Obviously all graphics created using Xara.

Here's a nonsense animation created in Hippani , just fun creating animations, no particular rhyme nor reason

It might be nonsense Egg but I love it

Thanks Egg, that made me chuckle.

I always felt Flash got a raw deal.

ANIMATION

Cute anilmation Egg. I liked flash too. As I recall there is a gif animator that does tweening too but don't remember the name of it or for that matter how well it works.

I'm a visual person too Jon, far preferring graphic explanations than textual ones. I manage to 'touch' on the sides of JS as I did in AS but never more than a struggling amateur. Just love that crab.

But this highlights the point you, Larry & others are raising, there may be pretenders to the throne of Macromedia Flash but there's no definitive knock-out replacement re HTML5. Thanks for the earlier alternative links too but they aren't in the same league as Flash unfortunately either.
