Can '90s-era technology for cute Web animations lead a new generation of cutting-edge Web applications?

Adobe Systems, which celebrates the 10th anniversary of Flash today, hopes the answer is yes.

Nice, I'd probably remember a great deal of those sites. too bad they sit at fwa can barely even read the font.

Font can't be adjusted cause everything is built in flash..
I will never forget the first I've seen turtleshell and eye4u (which by the way still looks the same )

[Donna]

forgot I have a zoom in

eye4u I voted on, only for the music lol nothing else.

The funny thing about all those flash pages on the first round is:

1- 2 of them have started with a fully flash animated website, now they turned more subtle.
2- 1 has been closed "turtleshell is gone"
3- nrg.be still looks the same, I think Peter is too busy over at ultrashock.com

It plays an advertisement before viewing doesn't need a preloader, give yourself more options to view rather than just flash movies. Unsure what format it is but I have flash player, quicktime and wmp installed so I view most I see.
