Hey, just today i finished downloading Macromedia Flash MX 2004 7.02 i thought it was the real thing but after the long download iwwas really mad to see it was an update that i needed macromedia flash mx for.. anyway i saw the same thing Macromedia Flash MX 2004 without the 7.02 now i expect this is the real thing but when i start downloading it it has the word Trial in it as in a 30 day trial... iv been looking site to site to find flash to download for free so i can make animation but all of them have a trial and i want it forever... seein its about $700 to buy. So can anybody please tell me if it says trial because you dont get to keep it, id really like to know thanks.

Flash Studio is indeed an expensive program, and I wouldn't recommend buying it if you just want to make a few movies with it.

You can still download the trial here (30 days):

If you wish to use it for a greater period you will have to buy it or try an alternative piece of software like Flash Maker (http://www.sothink.com/product/swfquicker/)

yeah thanks anyway man, my friend who has flash is gonna try and find the disc for me and if he cant he apparently knows this computer dude that can give him a copy so thanks il try the flash maker aswell

Just so you know Calo, we don't condone pirated copies or illegal downloading of copyrighted software.
You would this, if you had bothered to read the forum rules.
