Where I work we make a lot of custom products. On our website we have pages (using flash) that allow our clients to design the exact look and feel that they want. They can use sliders to adjust to just the right color. They can click on and alter different components. It helps our design team a lot when working with our clients. We used to use various scripts and every time a client made a change they had to click an "update" button. Our clients like the flash better, our employees like the flash better, it gives us an advantage over our competition and it makes us money.

There is an extremely popular website, [homestarrunner.com ], that is almost 100% flash. You can read more about its success here: [wired.com ]

Flash is a tool. It can be used effectively.

The point of e-commerce is to make money. If you can use flash to make you more money, use it. That's the bottom line isn't it?
