it drives me crazy

WTF!

Where is the F*&% Flash for OS X?

What are they thinking?

I know I can download Flash6 beta for window, but I can't even find any sight of Flash6 for Mac.

This is first time and last time I use "F" word.

"F" word?

"F" word? you mean f**k? f**k those a-holes at macromedia? I hate macromedia. "F" flash. Livemotion 2.0 will kick ass (i hope) I have both Livemotion 1.0, and Flash 5. Never use flash... always use LiveMotion.

Uhm... Nummi, while I too am really frustrated with Macromedia, could we refrain from using the "F" word in its entirety please? Cuss away in the "mind if I cuss" thread, but not out here for all the nice professionals to see please.

Thanks.

Macromedia...

Talk about really leaving Mac users shafted. They have four applications left to be updated for OS X - Flash, Dreamweaver, Fireworks and Director. And not a word as to when any of them will be released. In their financial statement made a few weeks ago, they said they expected better revenues from new versions of Dreamweaver and Flash to impact their bottom line by Q2, but all that means is that by the end of 'Q2 they will have these apps out. Pretty vague.

Flash, up until version 5.0 was on a 12 month upgrade cycle. Flash 5 came out in July of 2000, so right now it's been over 18 months since it was last released. This is why Macromedia has been losing money. What compelling upgrade did they have in 2001? Freehand, and that was it. If they want $$$, they have to produce the software for us to buy. It's that simple...

OK I can wait two more month.

OK,

I will be fine with LM if I were only animator. But I like to use scripts to make things work.

I guess I have to wait couple more months maybe more

Anybody else tend to have problems when loading websites in IE, that are completely done in Flash??

It slows the browser badly sometimes, I think Flash is ok for medium use but a full website made in flash is just way too slow!
