Animation software?
I have a cartoon in my school magazine. It was funny enough to make everybody say "transform it a caricature. "I took classes in drawing cartoons Elementry, but the course was only going to draw the clips (I never got to see it animated or not). Of all forms need a free software * * to help me animate cartoon or a method that allows me to animate cartoons. Plz help me. [By the way, do not say "software pivot, I have and use it:)]
Some of the better commercial 2D animation programs such as Digicel Flipbook, Toon Boom, TVPaint, TAB, and PAP, have Student or Express versions that are fairly inexpensive. However, you might be disappointed by how crippled these stripped down programs over its more expensive Pro versions. But if you look hard enough to be able to find cracks online (rapidshare, bittorrent). There are some free alternatives. If you're doing old school drawn on paper frame by frame stuff or stop-motion or 2D, I suggest MonkeyJam. It's free.

They're not Flash, but so do symbol oriented vector-based animation.
