TO FLASH OR NOT TO FLASH
If you worry your visitors won't be able to view your menus or important banners in Flash, use a "Spot Flash" instead to add interest, energy and information that's not critical but still informative and useful
It's also a good idea to duplicate information on the page. So the Spot Flash might be about a service, that has a paragraph about that service under.
Never fear Flash again.
