I just made one web-template, again with Flash. I am really interested in that but I think Flash isnt so popular anymore. What do you think about it, and was it OK too make such a page with FLASH?

I will be really thankful

With Flash, you can place objects anywhere with no worries on browser consistencies, resolution, but search engine do not index content. It can be very difficult to get an all-Flash website to rank high in search engines.

Flash is the nice concept to build the website but there are some problems with that. It is more heavier than HTML or DHTML. Therefore it takes some time to load. One important thing is that flash is not good for the seo point of view.

Flash templates are always good looking and attractive! but they are not that good for the search engines! if I'm going to design a web-template then I'm going to use the usual method (PSD converted to HTML)
nowadays, HTML5 can do what flash do! and as known HTML5 is preferred for the search engines!

cheers

Flash can make an outstanding website. You can continue offer the service for SME because of the companies like flash website. If the company concern on SEO, you can advise them to have static website.

In my humble opinion, I would use Flash to create a presentation that is similar to a television commercial. This type of presentation is something where the user sits back and enjoys the show as the Flash movie delivers the message to the client with animation, sound, and possibly video.

maybe I go with javascript Laughing out loud

as example, see this page: http://psd.web.id
not using any flash, it's pure html and javascript, with a little bit of css.

Yeah you can continue making outstanding websites that will be viewed by no one. Personally Flash is pretty much dead. It is totally SEO unfriendly, and you lose anyone who has an Apple Product. Do you know HTML and CSS? If you have Flash you might have Dreameaver so I suggest you convert all your designs into HTML.

Looks fine, but as per google web master search engine boots are not able to crawl the flash, so It's only for visitors and supposed you are not building any website fro human, of course that should be search engine friendly, just cheek my signature simple and I have also used little bit flash.

Well using Flash We can make attractive website but while loading that site it takes much time still many people use Flash because it's wonderful features.
