Hopefully I am not violating any forum rules here...I originally purchased all of these training materials I have for sale from this forum so here it goes...

I have a whole collection of Animation Master materials I am selling including the program (v13).

I purchased the original program myself (v13) from Hash's website. Everything else was purchased online, used. Of course, I cannot guarantee anything but as far as I know, everything works...this is nothing short of spectacular package. I don't think you'll ever find another deal like this again. I believe there is a second version of the program as well (with the software key) that could be upgraded. I was told by the seller that's what it was but I never verified because I already had a working copy of the program (the other one for sale in this package).

Thank you.

Very impressive collection... so why do you sell all of it? Sounds like you are moving from Animation itself?

Yes, unfortunately. I tried working with A:M for several months and just couldn't get it going. I was trying to create animated characters for use in my projects but it was taking too much of my time away from my primary work of putting together interactive software training (I do this in my "spare" time :-)). I love the software and I think it can do everything I wanted it to do and more...I just need to try and focus on my goals.

Also, I have been learning Adobe Flash the past several months and that is very time consuming as well. Adobe recently announced there are NOT going to further develop Authorware (a former Macromedia product) which is what I was using to develop all of my interactive software packages. With this information, I needed to move onto Flash (which lacks a lot of the functionality that Authorware has/had) and upgrade my skillsets in a current day software package.

Thanks for the comments.

Sad to hear that... but very understandable... so hopfully your ebay-sale will be successfull.
I would have bet for it (even so I already own the programm itself) but I am not in the US...

Best wishes!

on the plus side, flash is very extensible, and can be easily integrated into content management systems with the proper mindset.

auction reserves, however, are deal killers for some potential bidders.

especially if all you wanted was one, two, or a few items in the lot.

well he has 3 people bidding currently...

As far as I know, the reserve price is the only way to protect from selling at a price that is too low. Obviously, it is not going to get what was paid for it but I don't want to let it go for almost nothing either.

You can set the starting bid price (or opening) to be the minimum that you will accept, and not have a reserve price. That way it's not an unknown for the bidder who may not want to waste their time trying to guess what you'll take.
