Version: SWiSH Max 1
"Best Flash Animation Software!"
Pros: First off, it works on Windows ME! (Unlike that evil flash MX) The interface is full of icons but the learning curve is quite small, Everything/time/events are controlled by the timeline at the top of your scene, which is easy to edit and navigate, good for when you need to make sounds stop playing, or mke things appear at certain times etc. There are hundreds of effects and if you're stuck to make your first Flash or need help, it has brilliant tutorial sections, and once you get used to the whole process, you will be making flash in no time.
The online forums are really co-operative, if you ever need help go to these first. With this program you can do lots of things, create interactive Flash animations, presentations, interactive buttons, slideshows and loads loads more! This is a must for any keen Flash developer!
Cons: Some small RAM issues, but it shouldn't be a problem if you're not doing 200 things at once (My PC is Windows ME, Pentium II and only has 120mb of RAM)
And the learning curve, it might take a while for you to figure out what to do.

"SWiSHmax will end your frustrations in a Flash!"
Pros: If you've tried Flash! and found the learning curve too difficult, you've come to the right place. SWiSH Max is a powerful program that is easier to use for a fraction of the price of Brand X. Also, it works great with Win x64-Edition, which was a concern for me since Macromedia Flash 8 is not fully compatible. Try it, you'll love it!
Cons: If you've noticed people complaining about the tutorials, don't worry too much. There are some minor inconsistencies (e.g. the tutorial is telling me to double-click to pull up properties when it should say to right-click) but they are few and far between.

Version: SWiSH Max 1
Pros: I have used SWiSH for a couple years now. I had thought that they couldn't make it any better, that is until SWiSH Max was released. This thing is awesome. With it's new scripting ability you can even make flash games! This thing is the best, and I highly adore, and reccomend it. TWO THUMBS and TWO BIG TOES UP!
