Customer Reviews

Excellent book to learn SWISHMax

This book is a excellent resource to learn SWISHMax. It's a great book!

Very good book, easy to understand

I bought this book a few months ago, and I think its great for somebody who doesn't know anything about the software, its very easy to understand even for the novice and the web material helps a lot.

Extremely thorough Swishmax Overview

A "must read" for anyone even slightly serious about mastering the fundamentals of "Swish, Side One" - which we'll consider to be every toolbar MINUS the scripting one. As for scripting, there are chapters at the end devoted to covering some basics that serve as a nice introduction. That said, someone STILL needs to write the authoritative book on SwishScript. (Hurry, please!) Kudos, Donna. :-)

Complete and comprehensive

Finally a real Swishmax book has arrived. And, a very good and comprehensive one as well. Starting off easy, step by step, and further on the advanced features are explained in a very chronological way. An excellent resource. If you ever need help with Swishmax, this bible is the first step to take. Recommended!

'Bout Time: Great Book for the "Flash Alternative"

I've been using SWiSHmax for at leat a year as a very serviceable alternative to the much more expensive Macromedia Flash. However, I often had to invest a lot of trial-and-error in trying to be more creative and efficient because there was no good reference source for it. The SWiSH forums were helpful, but also fairly time consuming. This long-awaited book solves all of my issues! It's really a great reference -- very well designed, complete, and full of useful step-by-step guidance on doing almost anything with the product. And...it's peppered with tips and techniques (in the form of full chapters!)from some of the top experts in the SWiSH community. It also has a companion site with even more info. I really can't think of any citicism, other that I wish it was even longer than its 700 pages. Nice job, folks!
