From a ease-of-use/accessibility perspective i hate it, like most flash sites. But ignoring that, the combination of movement and subtle sound is lovely.

These guys are still pretty cool. See if you can figure out where the admin keeps the content. Pretty deep interactive.

eek - too much flash for my tastes.
flash websites are among the worst offenders of bad usability and dysfunctional design (the web is informational, not a brochure). used in moderation, flash is a nice tool. used gratuitously, it's technological masturbation. See link for an example of a website gone horribly wrong.
Try to bookmark one of the "pages" on a flash site. Now try to copy some of the text. Try to send some information to a buddy. Now you get the picture. More: link
link for a good use of flash. ;-)

thanks for your opinion stringedthry. i agree to a point. however, the web used to be a place for fucking around and having some arty fun and these days that seems to be frowned upon. Jakob flipping Nielsen is partly to blame for this and personally I think flash and anti-usability has a place. Dontclick is an experiment in usability and wouldn't be half as effective in DHTML and Leo is just showcasing his skills...nothing wrong in either in my view. that said, zombo.com is a seriously good use of Flash as is this : link
room: this has big photos - Flash tho: link - also: link (ignore the work and the style - i just like the simple scrolling, big image format...heheh...not helping you much in terms of aesthetic!) also: link (post web design).....um, can find better examples of what imentioned above for sure but i am not one for bookmarking - sorry! by the way....why do you ask???
and...this is our site, if anyone is interested: link

sam... i agree. jakob is arguably out of touch. but he's got a few good points and many web developers/designers could learn a thing or two from him. as with most things, truth is somewhere between the two extremes.

stringedtheory said: "as with most things, truth is somewhere between the two extremes."
Be careful! this rule of thumb is also the fallacy of "argument ad temperantiam". From many vantage points the truth itself may look extreme.
Agreed about flash though. '99% bad' may be an exaggeration now that it's being used very well by video sites etc, but there's an awful lot of inappropriate flash use still.
