Hello! I recently decided to make flash vids. (I know it is a lot of work).
My friend and I developed this character. I drew it in MS Paint (since a still haven't gotten the flash.) Here it is Paper Bag (without his useless robotic arm)
You could have a website that supports advertisements with flash animations on it. I don't know, I've never done anything for profit before. Not even sell lemonade.
That might be a good idea. But your site has to be popular so people will see the ads and go on them or else the people providing the ads will be ripped off of their money.
maybe if its a really popular animation on like, youtube ( like 800 million views, lol ) you could sign a contract and get it made into a commercial. you know... selll the rights to it....
