CyBrain, I'm the exact same way. Only a designer/animator. My math doesn't go further than simple algebra, so I definitely hate development. But after learning AS3, I find it MUCH better than AS2. You'll feel that way eventually too, I think.
The best advice I can think of is to find a developer friend who you can lean on to ask the "why/how" questions. Someone who can really explain things easily. Also, try to accomplish small tasks first, and ask the simple questions first, since that will get you learning about the repetitive methods needed for completing larger tasks.
- Totally agree. I have had an AS mentor for years and I think I would have given up by now if it weren't for him. <3tommyo

Yeah, got to build understanding from the ground up. It's not like wanting to format some text and looking up the text class for some methods. You have to take the red pill from The Matrix.

i think it's a good idea to build the project in as2 and then go back and rebuild it in as3. doing an as2 project today, it's so HOKEY! once you get used to as3 it's rad.
