Flash Assignment

I did have a little trouble at first with my flash assignment but after meeting with Dr. GIlbert he helped me figure out my mistakes.  After downloading the free trial of Adobe Flash CS4 I took the first layer of my assignment and imported a flute. I really did know what images to use so I thought since I am a flute player I can't go wrong with using a flute.   I also added in the beginning of my project some texts that says: My First Flash Animation.   After moving the flute around the screen and going into insert-timeline-key frame  I then published my flute flash page.   

Dr. Gilbert helped me with putting the flash on my webpage.  I was having a lot of trouble with that and I could not figure out what I was doing wrong.  He then told me that I needed to save the flash with .html AND .swf and them import both of them into my directory. I think that was my biggest problem, at first I did not have both of them in my directory and that's why it was not playing.  After importing both of them it worked!!! So simple but so frustrating since I did not know what I was doing wrong.  I did enjoy using the Adobe Flash..I did have many unsuccessful  attempts but after learning what I did wrong I was able to fix my mistake and post it on my webpage.
