    lots of good reason to flash, And I am all for flash when its right. But I think the main problem with it is its not very accessible, Adobe have worked hard to address that but its stil along way off the inherent accessibility of standard compliant HTML. So depending on your project and your Clients needs you may end up having to build two sites on in Flash one in HTML, hence doubling your work load.

    Not to drone on, but also everyone goes on about Flash Players ubiquity, but that is only half the story. If you do a super fancy flash site and people still have Flash player 7, and work in large companies where they don't like you upgrading stuff, they are screwed. I used to have this problem all the time when I worked at a larger company, could use anything that wasn't built before 1999.

    boobs sounds like you want to build a fab flash site for yourself and are trying to convince your clients to give you the money to do it, go on admit it. (its fair enough I do that all the time)
