Hi, I would like to talk macromedia flash and flash animations.
Macromedia flash is one of the best animation programs, is complete and you can create amaizing stuff if you know how to do it.

I dont like to create a 100% flash site but I use flash header and flash animation aswell.

What is your opinion about macromedia flash and flash content in a web site

Flash Professional 8 is the industry's most advanced authoring environment for creating interactive websites, digital experiences and mobile content.

With Flash Professional 8, creative professionals design and author interactive content rich with video, graphics, and animation for truly unique, engaging websites, presentations or mobile content.

I must agree with this one. Flash Rocks! And I dont use it for whole sites.. Only Header etc.

It is good, except that it loads slow.

I was never a great Flash user Embarassed

I've always tried to follow tutorials and everything but it always turns wrong and not what I wanted.. This limits my skills to animation-less websites with a few small animated GIFs made in ImageReady Razz

Flash content, without a doubt, attracts visitors to your site, but unfortunately it takes quite some time for the content to load, especially for those with slow connection.

you are really right, if you will create 100% flash based website it will harmful for you, as alot of peoples dont have shockwave, you will lose large amount of visitors because of only this reasons, also not everyone have good quality of pcs, if you will create 100% flash website then many of peoples will close their browser due to less speed.

100% is not a good idea, I think 30% of flash content is enought to attract visitor to your site

I have not used Macromedia flash for my website. I am not so good at it. And, it will take some time to load on client machines. The visitors may close it if the site is taking more time to load.

Yes I have used macromedia flash for some of my clients site. But for dynamic websites I dont prefer to use it for the seo purposes.

Flash Professional 8 is pretty good....
I think it's time for Flash.

I found many sites developed totally in Flash and animations are toooooooooo good.

Flash can be used for animated site not for commercial sites where SEO matters...
