A Flash Designer is someone who is responsible for making the interfaces and animations within a game. They have to make sure the interfaces are easy to use & navigate as well as making sure the animations look good. Some of the qualifications for a flash designer are a passion for gaming & 3 - 5 years of design/animation experience. Having a passion for gaming is in my opinion the most important requirement. If you don't like gaming then you most likely won't try you're best when trying to create one.
I was very surprised that you could become a flash designer without a degree. Granted you have to be one of the best but it can be done. Creative Hotlist made me realize that the design industry is mostly about personal skill rather than superficial credentials.
