What is Flashtuts+?

Flashtuts+ joins Psdtuts+, Vectortuts+, Audiotuts+, Aetuts+ and Nettuts+ as Envato’s newest Tuts+ site. It’s all about quality tutorials for Adobe Flash. Whether you want to learn how to create awesome Flash animations and interfaces, bone up on your Actionscript to create games and apps, or just get started developing with Flash, we’ve got you covered! Keep reading to learn a little bit more about the new editor of Flashtuts+ and what we’ll be offering on the site.

We’ll be publishing a combination of step-by-step written tutorials and screencasts, with demonstration .SWF files for the tutorial so you can see the final result before you invest time in it. In most weeks we’ll be publishing 2 – 3 high quality tutorials, so make sure to subscribe to the Flashtuts+ RSS feed so you don’t miss a thing.

If you think you have the skills to create a screencast or text and image tutorial for Flashtuts+, it’s easy to familiarize yourself with the guidelines and pitch your idea. We’re hungry for user contributions and pay $150 USD for an accepted tutorial.

    Can’t wait for the tutorials to start rolling.
    Could you do one for a scrolling image gallery at the bottom of the page – each image fades as mouse passes over it, and when image is clicked a large image appears above the scrolling gallery.
    This site keeps getting better by the day!
