Flash Central features some of the best Flash sites on the Web. Sites are reviewed by staff members, and visitors vote for the best sites. FlashChallenge provides a much better filter for excellent Flash sites than Macromedia's Shocked Sight of the Day.

FlashJester
FlashJester offers several excellent third party tools for Flash, including Jugglor (a projector editor), JTools (the projector add-ons Jstart, Jweb, Jemail and Jhelpor), and Creator (a utility that converts Flash files to screen savers.

Living Screen

Sterling Ledet and Associates
At this site you'll find hands-on training for Flash, along with training for other Macromedia tools such as Dreamweaver and Fireworks.

Macromedia
Macromedia's site contains solid galleries, tutorials, and tech notes; however, Macromedia's site is not nearly as informative as you might expect. The tech notes are the best resources, giving information that you'll likely not find elsewhere. Nevertheless, Macromedia's site is hardly the definitive resource on its own technology

ScreenTime Media
Formerly known as MacSourcery, ScreenTime sell utilities for Windows and Macintosh that convert Flash projectors into screen savers. They also sells royalty-free music you can use with Flash in a product called MusiCopia.

Moock Web Design
Moock Web Design offers a large number of excellent advanced tutorials, including free downloadable source files.

Screenweaver
Screenweaver is a very robust screensaver program that can convert Flash files (among many other media types) into screen savers.
