An easy way to create cartoons / animations ?

[NoTiG]

just wondering if anyonehas any programs to recommend.. for creating small simple cartoons. I also want to include a music sound file with it. Im not the greatest artist either so one that is easy to animate would be cool! . what does anyone recommend?

maybe there is some linux program that is similiar to macromedia flash that creates flash content? I think flash is the only way to create an animation with sound files embedded into it.

Regular video formats can display animation too, you know?

What about this? Looks like you'll have to build it yourself though.

no need to build, if you use some edgy repos
