Advice.

Wow that wasn't bad at all for your first one. Don't be afraid to post in the flash section, because this is the wrong place. But anyway
Pros
- It had decent force
- The run wasn't too bad
- The spiral forming at the beginning was pretty good
- There was very little resizing (when the stickman gets bigger and bigger or smaller and smaller)
Cons
-Super wobbly (The more you animate the less this will happen)
- Try to use the circle tool for the head, then select it and press F8 and make it a movie clip.
Thats about it, keep reading up on tutorials and practicing individual movements like, punching end of anim. Then do a run anim. The a walk, kick ect. You have a lot of potential.

Thank you very much. When you say use the circle tool for the head and make as movie clip, do I make it in a completely different layer? I'm still novice at movie clips but I've been practicing a little.

I don't make it a new layer, and I don't think very many people do, so I guess not.

damn good for a first sir. if its easier for you to keep track of then its cool if you do put it in a layer, either way unless you plan on tweening the movie clip its fine either way.
only other advice i have is dont focus to much on tests, like a punch or a run etc., im not saying dont do them, but make movies, even if they are terrible because them movies will probably give you much a much more learning experience and you'll learn a shitton more than a single test.
