what kinda special effects do you want? flash is limited, but powerful. it’s determined by how the user uses it… ---

Hello Son of Sokar, For effects like what you are trying to use, I would recommend using a 3rd party program such as Swfx or Swish. Flash is very limited in creating text effects, and the 3rd party programs I mentioned above are far easier and faster than anything you could do in Flash. ---

Hey cyenxian, Son of Sokar, Here’s the response to each your posts. Son of Sokar: Yes, Swish animations can be imported into Flash. Swish creates files in the SWF format, and you can import those Swish animations into Flash and use them along with your Flash animations. You will have to go back to Swish to edit the .swi files though. Flash cannot edit Swish files. cyenxian: SWfx is made by Wildform (the makers of Flix, etc.). The URL is: [www.wildform.com/swfx/](http://www.wildform.com/swfx/) ---

Hey ahsan, You can get a trial of the SWfX software from Wildform’s Web site: [www.wildform.com/pr/SWfX\_standalone.zip](http://www.wildform.com/pr/SWfX_standalone.zip) Of course, you won’t be able to save the files without registering the software first.
