I apologize, but I'm in a rush, and didn't even read your post, just the title..

My suggestion? DON'T USE FLASH! Unless you don't care about being found from a search engine, or you don't mind maintaining two separate sites (flash, and non-flash), you'd be wise to avoid a flash site as much as possible.

yea flash sites are lame... soo 1998!

Also, I almost threw up when I saw that marquee on the site you posted. 8O

unfortunately with site creation there are things you do that your rather fond of...and other things you dont really care for and only do because your having to receive a paycheck :wink: ...but it looks all the more sweeter once the redesign comes

still....any ideas as far as the information on that page?

Use more offsetting colors, a liquid layout, no marquees and no flash. That should point you in the right direction.
