SWiSH2 E-Books

SWiSH and Flash are programs that are used to create animations that will display on a website. Flash has a very steep learning curve and it costs TEN TIMES (appr. $500.00) as much as SWiSH ($49.95). SWiSH 2 can be used to create Flash files. With it, you will be able to create Flash effects for ANY website in seconds. You can get a free 15 day trial copy of SWiSH from SWiSHZone.

Our Books will teach you all that you need to know in order to use SWiSH effectively. It's a COMPLETE E-Book Course in how to use SWiSH 2, not merely tutorials. You won't be given examples, you'll be taught how to use SWiSH to create some very complicated Flash animations.

The course consists of 2 E-Books, SWiSH Introduction and SWiSH Presentations. The first Book is totally free to everyone! Please don't hesitate to download it. It is over 90 pages in length and is totally free. The second one is over 400 pages long and it costs only $9.99.

These books contain all of the information in FACT's online SWiSH course. You should purchase the E-Books if you do NOT want to take the tests and assignments that go along with the course. If you want the freedom to learn how to use SWiSH in a sequence other than that covered in the course, the E-Book is for you.

To view our SWiSH E-books, you have to download both the E-book and the E-book viewer. The viewer that we use is called TK-3 and it can be downloaded from NightKitchen. It is, in our opinion, the best E-book viewer around. With it, you can bookmark pages, mark passages, highlight pages and even take a test.
