Personally I like how it makes webpages look and interact... my personal site is completely flash... oh well...

Here is my site.

Edit1:
Its all flash... take it or leave it.
My Site

Edit2: What do you think of my site?

Edit3: My room is now done! My Room
 
Yea, flash often isn't pulled off well. If done professionally, it looks farking awesome, but the majority of the time that's not the case 😉

I probably will post it in the morning. I just have a few things to take care of on the page, one of which is getting rid of some personal contact information.

I would have shared it a long time ago, I just dont want some bored or pissed off nerds giving me a hard time on the phone or even worse, harassing my parents...
 
People hate flash because of all the flash ads and banners. Yeah, they suck, but whatever.

Also, many people go on a flash orgy and totally fux0r it up. Very few sites actually use it well.

All flash sites are the shiz, but only if the guy knows what he's doing.

Don't even play that game. I saw one thread where I saw you compromise your personal website. You had it on to display a picture viewer. Then you deleted it quickly, but any smart person could have gone to your main page and followed the links there to see pics and your personal information. You removed the link fast, claiming no one was interested in your pics. Nevertheless, maybe you should be more careful next time if you don't want your personal information exposed.

Oh, I thought I was the only one that thought flash sucked.

I'm glad I'm not alone. Flash is crappy. It forces me to take something I don't want. It doesn't give me options in opening windows, expanding, copying, resizing or many other things. I don't like flash. Please let it be all a dream that a majority would ever accept flash. Ewwwwwwwww!

Maybe you should refrain from going to sites that use flash. Never ever visit them again. I use it because I like the control it gives me in layout and interactivity.
 
Well, the problem is I'm not given much choices. I like Elite for instance because I'm given an option to use html or flash. I always choose html. That's what I call good business . . . where consumers are given choices.

I suppose it's your personal site, so you aren't obligated. However, I wouldn't choose a personal site that I know has flash in most cases.

Here's the thread that I referenced earlier, where you gave out your website but quickly removed it twice: Picture Viewer.
 
I have the security settings set to high on my main systems, so flash won't even run if it's installed. Flash may be more stable now than it used to be, but some years ago, I found that I nearly eliminated crashes when I didn't have flash installed on the systems I was using at that time.

Otherwise, Flash websites are invisible to search engines (and to internal site searches) and often huge and slow-loading. Some are aethetically appealing, but they still tend to be cumbersome and annoying for actual use. If the point of your webpage is for someone to look at it once and think, "gee, that was cool," it's probably a fine tool; I haven't seen any flash websites that I can recall that are well-suited for repeat visitors looking for information.

couldnt have said it better myself. When I format first think I do is windows update then change security settings to high so I never even bother installing it.. heh

Jesus Christ you are farked in the head. An accident is an accident. I don't see how he could be anymore careful about things, because not everyone is ALWAYS thinking about the same thing. I see you couldn't resist linking to something about modeling. Everything is about you isn't? Freaking ego-maniac.

I think i speak for much of ATOT when I say: STFU!
 
i like the look of flash web pages, if dont right, and flash games are fun, but those goddamn ads are horrible
 
"I think i speak for much of ATOT when I say: STFU!"

I think I speak for myself--unlike you who tries to speak for everyone: Kiss off! *You're tuned off now.*

Millennium, yeah, I'm sure it was a mistake twice. I always call something done twice a mistake. Maybe you should mind your biz. Gobadgrs (to whom it was addressed) read it but didn't particularly comment on it, so butt out! The Elite link is only because I hardly ever found a site that gave me a choice between the two. Elite was the only site amongst all sites I ever visited that I noted offered it. So what if I happen to have model agencies amongst my favourite sites? What's your freakin' biz or problem? Of course you always want my attention. This response was just trying to be nice to you. Now, have a good night rest (if you ever sleep). 😉 😀

(Scratches head)...so, why do you care so much? Can't quite figure out what you're trying to accomplish here, luvly.
