Type: graphics video web design
Flash is a popular method of displaying graphics animation, video and interactive content on web pages.
When you visit a web site that includes Flash content, you will be asked if you want to download the free Flash Player software so you can play the content within your web browser.
Flash can even be used to create entire web sites, although it is not appropriate for all sites for reasons including accessibility and the need to comply to web standards.
However, when used well Flash can be very useful for enhancing web pages and providing exciting and impressive content.
