^pretty sure Flash was dead when you needed to learn Actionscript to do anything good with it...
Don't blame Steve, blame fucking Adobe for buying Macromedia to kill the competition and in the process ruin the web.
Blame also the shitty advertising industry, although many earned a lot of bread doing flash banners and stuff...
- still remember getting $250 per flash banner back in the days...grafician
- Nobody ever mentions that for years all those banners didn't allow using AS3 because their tracking was AS2-based.evilpeacock
- not to mention the insane optimisations like "make it under 200kb" while today a simple blog loads 10MB of jsgrafician
- I had to spend days to optimise assets, JPG 60-75% tops if you wanted anything decent looking while still small filesize, while today ppl upload 10MB directlygrafician
- idk but I think Flash was an amazing medium for design and web art, didn't deserved to be squashed by these big corporations...grafician
- People don’t use 10MB of JS in a banner adnb
- lol nb have you opened any website on mobile recentlygrafician
