Paddle Master Group: Clan Members Posts: 2,085 Thank(s): 30 Points: 317 Joined: 3-December 07 Member No.: 50	being a flash developer ( albeit the as3 side of it - think as2 is a disgrace ) im going to need some areas as flash for demonstration on my site. i rarely do flash for websites tho, stuff here at work is usually e-learning, experiential type stuff or the odd game have to mention though i agree full on flash sites are great if done correctly - e.g. providing a unique experience to the user ( example is http://www.experience159.com/ ) but can be crappy if its not required... i speak from experience heh it used to be that the only way to get sleek looking interactive interfaces on a website was through flash, but now that javascript has evolved, and theres a great deal of library's available such as jquery and its variants, there is little point in using flash for basic menus items such as rollovers, small animations etc, hence why i think this is a perfect time to get my head into it. being that flash player 10 is fairly new, i "should" still develop for 9, but a, the people who i care about seeing my site (employers etc) should have the latest version installed, and b, i like finally having type-casted arrays and the native 3d(2.5d) support... (raile - "yum install flash-plugin" you looser) --------------------
