That is a great video/tut, Thomas.
I know nothing at all about Shade, but your tut is a good start.
About Flash files...
In the normal use of flash the end result is viewable only if it is inserted in a web page format. The viewer must then use their browser to see the file. A stand alone flash file (.swf file) can only be seen if the person owns the flash authoring program that comes with a flash player.
I have distributed Flash made files on a cd as part of an html document. The viewer then uses their browser to open and view the animation.
