In this article we are going to look at some of the latest functions of Flash while hopefully giving you a little bit of a sneak peak into the future of the application.

Basically, Flash creates graphical presentations and animation for Web sites. These usually consist of vector graphics, but can also include bitmaps and sounds. Flash can be used to create animations (such as logos), site navigation, cartoon-like sequences, and even entire Web sites to create a true multimedia online experience. The final exported movies (.SWF files) are usually compact and can be download quickly. Files made up of mostly vector-based graphics can be shown to scale in a browser without the loss of visual quality.
