After trying to animate in Photoshop I found it really annoying and not really helpful for animating, probably because it wasn't designed for that purpose. I downloaded a trial of Adobe Flash CS5 and tried using that instead and I found it a lot easier to use and I got more animating done in a shorter amount of time so I definitely think I'll be using Flash to do my animation.
Although I've never used the program before I found it pretty simple to use thanks to a few online tutorials and books I've been able to teach myself how to use it.
I think I'm going to go back and redo my bouncing ball using Flash instead of Photoshop and see how it looks.
