Moving Pictures

Here's two flash animations I made recently; I uploaded them to megaswf.com and you can view them by clicking on the links below the still pictures. If anyone has better ways to upload and display swf's in blogger for free, please leave a comment! I would like to embed them directly into posts so there's no clicking links and navigating away.

The frog animation was the first simple one I did, trying to learn how to make the fly follow a path. You might notice if you drew out the path the fly follows, it never loops over itself - Flash wouldn't let me use guide paths that crossed over themselves. Again, if anyone has ideas on how to overcome that, please leave a comment!
 
The Wallaby Brutally Assaulting the Dog is not an endorsement of hurting animals (I don't want to lose my $100 million in endorsements), but was used as visual trash talk in my fantasy football league. Unfortunetly, my Wallabies were soundly defeated by my brother's Mad Dogs thanks to Brandon Marshall breaking the all time single game receptions record and everyone on my team scoring about half their average.

You should try exporting your animations under a different file type and use youtube.

As for the issue with the line crossing and having the be follow it... I'd either suggest more layers with multiple paths or actually javascripting.
