Free Flash Templates

Useful Information regarding Flash, courtesy Jim Peragino of Planetlogic:
Due to the Eolas Patent, Microsoft has decided to change the way of activex
support in IE. As a result, it is required to first click on most Flash animations
to active it. The Falsh object will say please click to active this control.
However, Microsoft also provided ways to work around this limitation. This
means if you could change a little bit of the web pages, then the Flash menu
will act as before, and there is no need to active it by the extra click.
I’d suggest using the FlashObject to work around this active requirement.
It is free.
The instructions on the following web page to download and install it on any
of the site you may have developed with flash.

For the record, Jim is a great guy to work with, and he has been incredibly helpful to me.
