junostar.com - flash or no flash?

[canobi2004]

Hey there,

I'm not sure if I should take the flash navigation off the home page. It looks good enough for me, loads quickly and all, plus I've got alternative text links at the bottom.

Should I keep the navigation or remove it, or is there a better way?

Thanks for the advice.

change it, if you wanna keep flash, it takes to long to load.

if i were you, i'd just use gifs, and rollovers and leave out the flash

but then again, i dont' like flash very much

lol, why gifs? jpg's man, there isnt that much difference in the load times, and jpg's give a better quality color image, depending on your colors. but your right, for his, GIF's are fine :tu:

 

[Brian]

well text usually renders better in gifs, at leasts thats been my experience

 

[iDeviseFlash]

do you know what both formats mean and do :p?

 

[Brian]

yes, yes i do

 

[iDeviseFlash]

ok, just checking :p

your design is nice. I would go with rolled-over gifs. Flash can be a pain for users who are too tech-illiterate to have flash player installed. If you maybe got rid of some of the extra time spent loading in the navigation that would be niec. nowadays, people are always in a hurry. They don't wanna wait.
