I know that FP8 can do FP7, but the net effect is, websites are out there messing up viewer access/experiences over dodgy detection scripts. Actually, I kept messing with it and it let me continue past the warning, but it was far from obvious that I could do so. On 10/27/05, Julian Suggate <[EMAI

Macromedia was a little more straight-up with their downloads though. The only thing I really like on the surface of this merger is the fact the Macromedia apps will get tabbed palettes back. Anyhow, as an example. I had a client over and he needed to open a PDF. I had a newly formatted laptop and

You can do motion type stuff, but you are restricted more or less to the same types of tricks you'd use with Photoshop due to file size constraints. After Effects is pretty much just Photoshop with a timeline. For more elaborate effects, you will more than likely be better off creating video in Af
