    OK, so I'm not at all a fan of quirky little Flash games as banner ads, but I've been asked by my CD to look into the whole deal – my first thought is that file size may be an issue (we have a 50k limit)... will the heavier programming affect file size at all, or is that more related to the amount of raster imagery being used?

    Any good arguments against the whole idea would be appreciated as well. Including cost to hire an actionscripter to make it all work...

    I don't trust em. Seems that if you scroll on the add or play the game whatever it'll click you through to the advertisers site.

    good point quamb. there is such a proliferation of flash ads that I rarely click on them at all.

    On the feasibility side of things you can do a lot with 50kB and some decent scripting, pong leaps to mind for example - that could be done at that size... also something like erix..
