Quotes
I am not really interested in Flash as a mere animation tool. I use Flash because of its programming possibilities, ability to integrate with graphical images, good browser compatibility and because it is easy to use.
Some people feel that designers are often drawn to Flash because of its multimedia capabilities at the expense of other demands of a client's brief. In other words, Flash is often misused or used to build sites where other technologies might have served the client's needs better.
I agree with some of it. In the light of current Web systems, creating a site with ordinary HTML and XML technology ensures effective information media. Up to now, developing a site by using Flash meant that sacrifices had to be made in other areas. We must bear this in mind. We should also remember that Flash is a mere tool like any other Web technology. It is important to know how to use tools freely, but dependency on a specific tool leads to meaningless results.
On the other hand, I feel strongly that where the Web is used as media, it should always involve new experiences and excitement. I like to satisfy my desire to present something interesting that has not been seen before, even if it is at a cost. When I work with a client who feels the same, I will go ahead and do what I want to do. Each case is of course judged on its own merits.
