    I think they should put Flash aside for the moment and start from scratch.

    Adobe should think: "ok, designers know photoshop, AE and illustrator - the web in 2010 can do this, that and the other thing. ok lets make a tool that fits into a designers toolset and knowledge, is practically like AE for animation, illustrator for vectors and photoshop for bitmaps, that doesn't require learning a new script language every 1.5 years and easily allows them to create the things they want to see on the web in 2010 in the way that people expect them to work, using common already established conventions (ie it fits into the common web browser experience natively - no swfaddress hacking etc..)".

    I want to see no actionscript at all. I want to see a modular flow chart approach - a no code, visual programming interface. that's where flash should be at by 2010. not as3 not as4. no more as bs.

    After they've made an app that meets that requirement they can make it export to swf and we won't have to worry about people installing a new type of player. Or better still - make it export to html5! make it take your animation and interactive design and export it to a 'html5, css, jquery, pngs, jpgs' site. that would be cool. no more swf and flash. video will be native to html5 so good by that old excuse. and html based 3D is on it's way...

    • Nice, but not going to happen. Nobody does the sensible thing otherwise we wouldn’t have people locking their intranets into IE6 as if it were still 2001.thatboyneave
