Also, if anybody who has made guides or files for Dominions I or II pops here, please send me a PM or an email. I'd love to put *something* to the devoid Downloads section.

That is, if the one who's offering the serve space aproves.

Other sites always offered the downloads pretty well. I tended to offer items not covered by the other sites. Check the Dom2minions downloads (in the links section)

I pretty much hate flash. I have it blocked by default. Putting flash on a site gives it a 90% chance that I will never see any of the content.

Well I believe that everything has its pros and cons. If a site had a simple thing to say, basically an online commercial, then flash is perfect. But if it wants people to see what its offering without the sales pitch, then its a drawback. IMHO of course

That is why the best sites are comining php with flash. Flash logos, menus and some animations, and the real content comes in php.

I think use of flash must be limited to animation or online game in a site.
DHTML+ javascript with the use of dynamic request to the server can give a very good sensation to the user, and with low cost. I think flash is too heavy, IHMO.

Really like your new site Gandalf, and always liked your old site as well. As far as Flash goes, I hate it 99% of the time. For example, I used to pop over to the Total War home page to check for news on the series, but they recently upgraded "To The New-Look". I have dsl, but I have to wait for the animations to load before I can see the news. Give me content over Flash any day. (Keep it simple!)

Just my opinion.
