Yeah thanks!! Sorry - ha ha. I'm still in a sticky situation.
I might have to outsource this role just to get it done by someone who knows exactly how to achieve my imagary.
Hey Stuart. There's a very much more simpler solution to your problems. http://www.swishzone.com. Swish 2 would be your tool, or even SwishMax. This is the stupid flash alternative. It's all good though. Flash can take years to master. http://www.webagent007.com. yeah, you ain't gonna learn that in a month. but Swish you can. it's comparable too.
I have an external company designing a flash anim for me now and should be previewing it later today so your tool may be useful if I dont like what they have done for me.
