    i do as much of my work as possible in flash now. i think the flash player is common enough now that the only misuse of flash is flash that ignores bandwidth restrictions, or is used as an excuse for poor design...

    and i dont want to offend, but i think a lot of the designers that 'hate' flash just havent been able to pick it up. If I was a print designer just getting my head around html/css, i might hate it too. the same way i hated second year calculus.

    i think flash is as cross browser as any other technology/language we have, and i really feel the plugin deal is a non-issue.

    in the end, i really think it comes down to the designers preferences, and strong points... there are definitely sites that shouldnt use flash, but there are a lot of html/css sites that could be done better using flash too.
