For me, i am a huge fan of flash design and sites that have a flashed base. But has anyone else found that many users go away when you only have a flash version of your site? For me, i have it setup to inform the user if they do not have the correct version of flash but many do not install the plugins. Has anyone else found this a problem? How do you go about it? Have a html version?

I haven't seen alot of 100% flash sites lately, but I prefer a static HTML website over a flash one. However, I do still admire the all flash sites, as they capture my artistic side.

100% flash sites are fine with me if it's done nice, neat, and correctly.

i like flash sites, but it slows down my computer because i am using the windows ME, which sucks. So i prefer html. Flash sites are impressive. I would recommend having an option to switch to an html form

Now a days too many site are build by flash.The designers have used flash to create interactive features ranging from live feed back form to action based flash games.In flash no worry about certain css code,you can make animation and these are very small size as compare to other movie file.

I very much like admiring flash sites, but find if im looking for information only and there is an option for both flash and html I will usually choose the html version.

I love doing my sites in 100% flash but it is real hard for SEO

Actionscript is a poor standard to run a website from, and I'd never encourage anyone to make a site completely out of flash.

I do like viewing a flash site if it's well done because it usually inspires me to go out and design something. However, I do realize that many people do not want to go through the effort (or do not think that they are technologically prone enough) to install the plugins themselves so it would be beneficial to your site to have an html version as well.

What flash version are you saving your site in?  Usually you can back save the flash version to an earlier version such as Version 9.  This will open up your audience into the 90% range.  I wouldn't use the very latest version of flash unless you have some specific reason for doing so.
