to create flash movies you need Macromedia Flash (most resent version is MX 2004) you can download a trial from their website - http://www.macromedia.com/downloads

then kiss good bye to the next 4months of your life - by the end of whichy you should just about be able to create a movie with some simple actionscripting ;)

Edit the parameters if necessary.

Although you shouldnt really directly link to someone elses server. You dont want to be stealing their bandwidth....

You can definitetly get permission if you ask. Some people might let you, but they most likely would want for you to host the file on your own site and give some sort of praise for their greatness, etc.

ok...thnx..you all earned some of those AP things...whatever the hell those do/..
