5. The artist improved on the newspapers,
...in that I told him that all the newspapers would be titled, "The News," but fortunately, he came up with a variety of names such as "Weekly Report" and "Daily Times."

10. Yes, the video was created in Flash, and this thread links to...
...the SWF version, which is the native format (and best looking format) for sharing Flash animations.

For the version at YouTube, I outputted as a small AVI, and then YouTube converts it to something else.

14. After I posted a link directly to the Flash from...
...another website, someone commented that parts of the visual were missing as he watched it.

I've updated the webpage with one link to "Technical Help" and one link to the cartoon.

16. That was great! Very high quality of animation.
Very sad however. Sad that people must say that, and that we don't just know it is right.

It really goes over a great deal of information in a sadly entertaining way.
