Now this is something I am very pleased to see :)

Incidentally, my favourite small fonts are silkscreen and ROTOR...

I would look into the usability of those fonts if they are not used as a graphic element. Small fonts are hard to read and basically not usable as a written communication tool. They can be excellent graphic elements though.

You can just use the _sans font amongst others with regular Flash MX for aliased text. Or just use a pixel font, which still gets blurred a bit in flash. Im still downloading the bloody demo, i really need cable...

absolutely! couldnt agree more......

If i have to make a useable site i very rarely use flash on the site at all.... just on the ones i do for fun (not for a living)

yes but they get too blurred when you try and use them at 6pt which is what i was meaning.....
