Don't forget that, unless things have changed in the last few months,
Flash is very inaccessible. Screen readers are presented with a blank
page as far as I am aware.
Of course this may not be an issue with your user base, but it is worth
bearing in mind.

I've started dabbling with Flash, using some open source development
tools which are available on Linux.
Which ones?
The two main tools are swfmill, which builds a basic SWF file from a set
of resources (e.g. jpeg, png or svg files, sound files, etc.) and mtasc,
which is an ActionScript compiler. However, there are various other
tools for doing assorted tricks and there is also a set of plugins for
Eclispe for doing Flash development. If you're interested, take a look
at some of the following sites:
http://iterative.org/swfmill/ http://www.mtasc.org/
http://osflash.org/ http://www.swftools.org/
http://sswf.m2osw.com/ http://www.flashant.org/
and, of course:
http://www.macromedia.com/support/documentation/en/flash/
You can also export flash SWF files from OpenOffice.org Impress.
I must emphasise that I've only recently started exploring open source
Flash development and I have no experience of using Macromedia's
development tools, so don't come to me for expert advice!
