Flash Based Website its Advantages and Limitations
Flash-based sites have been a craze in recent years, and Macromedia brings together more and more features in Flash, we can not predict, there will be more and more of Flash sites on the Internet. However, Flash sites have been challenged to be excessive and unnecessary. Where exactly is the border? Here ’sa simple ventilation.
The good:
Interactivity
Flash ’s ActionScript opens a wide field of possibilities. The programmers and designers have used Flash to create interactve offers very strong reactions forms of attractive Flash-based games. This whole new level of interactivity always leave visitors coming back for more.
A site Standard
With Flash, you do not have to worry about cross-browser compatibility. More problems on how a certain code CSS displays differently in Internet Explorer, Firefox and Opera. When you put your site elements in Flash, they will always appear as they are as long as the user has installed Flash Player.
A better expression through animation
In Flash, you can make use of its functions animation to convey a message in a much more efficient and effective. Flash is a slight option for animation because it is based vector (and therefore the size of files), as opposed to real video files matrix which are based and, therefore, much larger in size.
The gross and Beverly Hills Cop:
The Flash player
People have to download the Flash player to advance to be able to view Flash animations, so by using Flash your visitors will drop considerably because not everyone is ready to download the Flash player just to see your site . You ‘ll also put in extra work to redirect the user to the download page Flash if he or she doesn ‘t have installed the reader.
Site Optimization
If your content is presented in Flash, most search engines wouldn ‘t be able to index the contents of your site. Therefore, you will not be able to rank well in search engines and there will be less traffic toward your site.
Charging time
Users must wait longer than usual to load the Flash content in relation to texts and images, visitors and perhaps lose their patience and click the Back button. The higher your Flash takes charge, the more you risk losing visitors.
The best way to go is to use Flash where you absolutely need the interactivity and movement that accompanies it. Otherwise, use a mixture of Flash and HTML or plain text use if your site is purely to present text and simple graphics.

Image Optimization in Websites
Even if more and more Internet users switch to broadband every year, a large part of the Web ’s population is still running on good old connections. It is therefore unwise to count them in the equation when you ‘re designing your site, and a very great importance, we must do to dialup users is the time to load your website.
Typically, all the text on your website will be loaded in a very short period of time on the same connection. The head of slow loading sites is mainly large images on your site, and it is very important to strike a delicate balance between the use of images just enough to attract users and not overwhelm the time to load your site.
You should also go to greater length and optimize each image on your site so it loads with the least time possible. What I really mean is to use a software image to delete unnecessary information about your images, and thus effectively reducing the file size of your image without altering its appearance.
If you have Photoshop, it will be obvious to you that when you save an image as a JPEG file, a dialog appears and allows you to choose the quality of the JPEG image - normally a setting of 8 to 10 is enough good because it will preserve the quality of your image when registering to a small file size. If you do not have Photoshop, there are many free compressors image online that you can download and use to reduce your image ’s file size.
On the other hand, you can choose to save your images in PNG to get the best quality at least file size. You can also save your images in GIF format - the software image editing clips out all the color information is not used in the image and, therefore, to give you the smallest file size possible. However, recording the GIF format is often compromised the appearance of your image, so make your choice wisely!
