Almost Forgot the Wrap:
Live Motion is a cool app. If you are serious about Flash design you
will find uses for it. It is amazingly insightful and mature for a
beta - for any app in its first 3 generations. Scripting language or
not, you should have it in your toolbox. Thumbs up.

Everyone's got to use what she got to get just what she want.
Unfortunately, there isn't a big community of people talking
specifically about "Flash Killer" because it just isn't a
topic in itself. Check out the 5 or so short threads on Live Motion
on the
ShockFusion
BB for the full range of views, (notice that the designers who
regularly have their own work to post in the 'CoolSites' area plan to
use LM for specific tasks, i.e. get up offa that thang and check out
Live Motion)!
Front Door of Adobe's LM Site -
lotsa info. It's even all true!
Abobe's BB for LM -
This is their "User to User Forum" - sounds like someone
had a committee meeting to name their bulletin board, (which is about
3 steps below UBB in all categories).
eGroups Flash Killer Forum - not much action here.
Flash Magazine
- look for the interview with Michael Ninness, LM Queso Grande.
Mandalay
(movie guys) - I am very conflicted about this site. At the very
least it can give you some ideas about things you might like to try
with Live Motion, (raster/vector collage, etc.). It's all the things
that are not a good idea to try with Flash, but they pull
it off.
Live Motion dot Com -
included as a cautionary example to those who would mark themselves as
(having less than perfect knowledge and wisdom) by droning on about
how worthless LM is. A half-baked idea at one-third execution.

Live Motion - Super Bad
