That's something not specific to osflash. You can find in most Flash books or online sites (kirupa?). We can't expect osflash to cater to every single segment of the audience; at least an intermediate working knowledge of Flash is assumed. But of course it's not always clear cut what is considered basic. What may be basic for a pro may not be for a new user. "Basic" could refer to how the Flash player operates, searches for properties, etc, or something like loading an external swf into a movieclip (which you mentioned earlier). > In resume, I would prefer one "Welcome to Osflash, learn about osflash" > web-site and another "now that you know the basics of osflash, let's > start doing big things like we, geeky developers, do" website.
