RE: FLASH: So what makes great design in Flash ?

[Merrill, Bob]

Ooops! Should have known that would happen. That was in no way directed at

Tom, nor did I have anyone in particular in mind. Sorry if I offended.


I too enjoy looking at those sites that really expand Flashs' boundaries.

But unless it's intended for entertainment only my first priority has to be

to feed information. Most of my clients either want to sell something or

disseminate information. If the end user has to wait for pre-loads, spinning

gears, lightning bolts etc., they may go elsewhere.
