How do you make flash? I think the flash on your site is great, and I want to try to make some of my own.

Well, you can buy it at a store or something (for the low cost of about $400 dollars; and that's because there are other software things together in the buntch - no single by itself... or is it $800 dollars... I think, but in any case...) ... Or you could get a 31 free day trial of it online.
Anyway, it gives you a blank white page, where on the left you have drawing tools, the top you have a timeline- type thing, and the bottom gives you to be able to change things, and the right contains help stuff, and things.
So you draw what you want, then with the timeline you make a keyframe and then draw that, then you make another keyframe further down, and repeat. But of course each time you draw differently. Also you have just normal frames and you have to decide how long each section should be with the normal is 12 frames = 1 second... But you can change it... Uh, there are also motion tweens where you draw like a before and after thing; like for a ball falling, before is when it is in the air, and after is on the ground. Then you select and right click and go "Create Motion Tween" and then, if done correctly, when you go and hit "Enter" which plays the clip, the ball should go from where it was at the beginning to where you have it at the end.
Then you just mainly have to keep repeating it...
But advice: If there will be any talking, have that recorded first, so you create changes and things based upon the speach, instead of trying to have the speach to try to fit to what is drawn. Same for music... like if you have changes at exact changing in the music then put the music in first.

Hope I gave you a vague idea of what's going on!
