cost of development alone may be the biggest deterrent... in our world its:
interface (graphic) content (text) html applications (cf) clients want to pay only for the HTML :) the apps have to be done cheaply, and quickly... thus CF... Interface is always an issue... modifying Photoshop designs to cross browser implemented HTML is a pain in the arse as it is... Can only wonder how expensive Flash would get... because now you add a new layer of behaviors, many multiples of design and round trip interaction and tracking... lots of stuff... Flash should be proximate to CD Rom development... The average CD Rom development costs what these days? -paris -----Original Message----- From: Chad Gray [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Friday, August 02, 2002 12:30 AM To: CF-Talk Subject: RE: Does Macromedia have some current strong Flash agenda? Try to sell the clients on the costs of developing the flash. If you count up the hours. Flash is NOT cheap. If you count up the hours maintaining flash... It is REALLY not cheap.

Is it me, or has anyone else noticed there's a REALLY strong push for = Flash lately at all the CFUGs and conferences?? Is there any particular = reason for this? I like Flash - don't get me wrong. But I view it as a GUI frill that I = doubt I can sell to my clients who want a functional business = application. Anyone here can tell me why/how I could sell them Flash = which would be over and above CF development? Bonnie E.
