I woke up today and maaaan… I decided it’s time to stop asking what if and just make my flash site, exactly how I want it.

I envision a website, with a background that fills up the whole browser with colorful effects.

I envision a site that I can add content to by editing a text file and it functions fast.

I envision a site where I can stream videos of myself doing crazy stuff.

I envision all this in flash, in one site, with my design.

Now that you know the crazy things I think about, I should admit I’m an intermediate Flash developer and have been away from it for months. With all the new technology out, I would like some advice as to what precautions I should take when trying to create a website like this. What steps should I take? What methods should I follow… all help is appreciated. Thanks.
