FI have made some nice updates
http://www.fantasyinterfaces.com… and they feature new work for Microsoft. I consider these always to be the number 1 flash design company and they are getting a lot bigger, actually I think they are the biggest team anyway.

You're kidding me! It's very obvious that 2Advanced is the best flash house around. Look at how many threads they inspired on NT.

http://www.propod.com both are the 2 leading in the world but I see more quality in FI's work, and its not half as easy to rip as 2A's.

ok that was sarcasm there.
2adv and FI are good firms, undoubtedly, but overrated. They both have their signature styles, but they rely a bit much on sensory overload and a singular style. They got their own style, which is not a bad thing, but repetition is dulling.
Three firms I would put over them would be Juxt Interactive, Xylem Interactive, and WDDG. ie, you couldn't tell right off the bat that chipotle.com and geneticshoes.com were both done by Xylem, and that's one thing FI and 2adv can't claim.
Then again, ranking firms imho is rather pointless given that there are so many quality firms out there. dna studios, akqa, wddg, real branding (haha I'm shameless), etc. they're all doing good work and it's rather unfair that only two firms seem to get all the attention.

<< you gotta be kidding. Paregos have made ONE good site years ago, they are 10 leagues behind today making very boaring sites. As for Design Chapel, now thats over rated.

Somewhat agrees.
But I don't agree with one site. They made tons of Swedish site, like Mosquito, Renault, etc that not so many people ever saw outside of Sweden.Mosquito was featured on Japanese television back them, by the way.

In version 2 of Newstoday, they will have a spellchecker available for me, won't they? :)
