I suggest this since I wanted to post a topic about a game I'm going to make in Flash, but I didn't know which forum to post that topic in, and I didn't want to clutter up the Artwork forum in that way.

Let's hope that this suggestion doesn't get ignored. :D

Art = Music, Literature, Poety, Animation, Games, Images, Paintings etc. etc.
Anything with an inkling of design IS art.

The Artwork forum was meant for CG, 3D renders, traditional pencil-and-paper art, etc. Animation and Flash is a different story. It can be a masterpiece, but it moves. CG and traditional art just stands still, but still can show its own unique style.
Compare just taking a picture and adding sound to it (nothing more), and having Flash. The picture doesn't move, yet there's sound still going on in the background, and that can cause confusion. Flash, on the other hand, tells a story or entertains someone to a certain extent. Pictures are just for looking at and critiquing. It can be put up on a wall for decoration. Flash you can't.
So, they both may be art, but they're still different in their own ways.

You're probably best finding a good tutorial site (kirupa.com), and working your way through the lessons.

If everyone posts THEIR flash, in THEIR art topic, how will the art forum get cluttered?

I think that a forum for stuff flash related, etcetera would be nice.

Wow, now you sound like me. =/
Yes, I read your post. That's fine if they post it in their own topic, but, a Flash forum just sounds more solid. I'm not trying to be superficial here, honestly.

Too bad none of the admins are looking and taking this into consideration.

I have no posted on it yet for two reasons:
1) I have no talked to Max about it yet; I cannot give a secure answer (which leads to whining).
2) I myself don't have an opinion on this yet. While it would sort things out, it would also give a whole new forum to a focus which wouldn't generate many topics (by different people).
For the time being, if you wish to discuss the technical aspects of Flash(And Animation), perhaps a topic in the Technology and Computer forum would suffice?

Which is fine. I didn't mean to rush you guys in the sense, so, you'll have all the time you'll need to figure out what you'd want to do with this suggestion. At least I know you did actually see this, and that I'll have to be patient next time, I guess.
