Hi all - i’m teaching myself web design, and in that regard am now getting in to flash. Seems like an excellent way to get great graphics …

my question is this - i’m designing (free) a website for the local fire dept i’m a volunteer at. For my initial home page, i want to have a little flash intro where the Initials of my fire dept come into a blank screen from the middle left, and stop in the centre of the screen … is this something that is an advanced step, or something i could master fairly easily with research?

many thanks, i appreciate all & any replies !!

Matt
