Hi.

Take a look at...
http://www.0800handyman.com/

Can anyone tell me what toolset might have been used to create the
animation at this site?
I'm interested in developing something similar myself and wondered
what the involvement might be.
Having done some animation in the past, I'm curious if I have the
skillset required or would have to climb
yet another steep learning curve :)

Many thanks,
Dean

Aren't Mac users supposed to have apoplexy at the site of Flash
animations? :-)

Sorry, did you say something... I must have passed out ;-)

Anyway... are we? why is that? It's been a while since I did any web
dev on me mac!

Besides, it's what the client wants... and he's paying (hopefully...
some time in the next decade... after 1.3 million revisions!)

:-) I agree but it seems Steve Jobs doesn't and quite a few people here
have expressed dislike of Flash an a preference for the yet to be widely
accepted HTML5 for some reason.
