I have an idea of making some kind of an original design
of my'n.I want to add that design on to my website but
i dont know what software to use.I have tried Flash but i didn't
like it that much, It didn't have all the features that i aquired for my
animation.

i haven't used anything much so i can't do a comparison chart of some sort but I started out with macromedia director and can't be exportable to flash maybe start with that, start with sprites editing.

I think the best would be the micromedia i use it too it's really great and it has perfect design too

Yes, Flash is really good in animation. Even better with some add-ons. Some of them are Swift3D and SwishMAX, I think.

Well it depends on the taskin yr hands. Flash is the best but there are other softwares which might make your life easier then in flash like for fonty animations SwishMAX or for Animations Plasma. there are lot more other related softwares and plugins. search on flashkit.com , you would find something there.

My favorite animation program is Ulead GIF Animator 5.
I tried quite a lot of different progs,but liked this one the most,as it's the easiest to use.

Macromedia Flash (or should I say Adobe Flash?) is the best animation software I have ever seen. 3D Studio Max is also good but it is too complex for me.

You can try director too although its more cater towards 3d work then flash.Swift is a good tool if you make it 3d and import into flash.

Flash is too heavy for animating a website! Best would be to use some GIFs and for it I would recommend Ulead GIF Animator!
