I too have been reading both forums and web sites and trying to decide which would be better for my "needs" as someone who is interested in creating animations for the first time. This thread was pretty helpful. Thanks to all who contributed.

Would anyone be able to provide a link to the video scrunge is referring to above?

Thanks much.

So which is better? A hammer or a wrench?

If you want to drive nails into wood, I prefer a hammer, though a wrench could be used for that as well. Use the right tool for the job.

Link is dead, anyone have another?

Are these videos on another site?

Or maybe someone knows what if there is another link?

:( It appears they have taken them down. Looks like there's no more free demo.

Was it a demo? I thought they were referring to samples/examples. Either way, it is probably short sighted of Smith Micro. The more they share, the more potential customers.

I'd look on youtube, but I'm not sure what I'm looking for.

If I had to guess I'm thinking it might be related to a discussion we had here where someone (bg) was questioning the value of the Rose Agent character given that the animations were probably worth more than the actual character itself (which is pretty useless, IMHO, for doing anything or even learning anything).

I grabbed those videos a long time before I bought RA (on sale for $15 at the time) but I still haven't gotten around to looking at them (one of these days... :>)

Yeah there seems to be even less on the Smithmicro site than before for AS.
