Sorry to disagree but flash isn't the be all end all you're suggesting, and I'm generally a big proponent of it. IMO its biggest asset is as a browser equalizer. I.e. if people can't see the movie, they have to upgrade flash/browser- so no more least common denominator. That's not usually considered best practice in web design, but this isn't really web design I suppose. Don't get me wrong, SlimFX looks great- but so does nokia and touch, and fishbone and default for that matter. I prefer things designed to standards, so feel the ideal default web interface would scale to devices without manually having to switch skins- and of course while running very quickly (which flex seems adept at, but so does ajax in a more standards compliant way- I'd imagine). It seems like a more solid foundation for the front end, or the default version anyway. Web interfacing will continue to be useful and is continually advancing around here without help from 'pros'. It would seem like contracting some programmers to write a windows and mac app would be more cost effective than an in-house web designer who may or may not be at odds ideologically with people who write skins. I'm sure I'm assuming way to much about how things work around there, so sorry if way off base. That posting sure makes me wish I finished my new media degree, but who would want to live in california? -- Skunk ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Skunk's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=2685 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=33046 _______________________________________________ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss
