Hey, we’ve just finished making a pretty interesting Flash site for DK the publisher. They’re running a competition where you can win a £10,000 holiday and our company got the pitch to make it.

I think it turned out quite cool but some feedback would be nice. It uses Flash shared objects to track the user’s selections of dream destinations and some nice Flash/Database interaction to track entries and referrals.

Basically, you have a certain amount of “cash” to spend on selecting your favourite destinations. Each place has a value and you can either select as many as you can afford or up to five and the Flash calculates all your availabilities automatically.

Check it out at [www.dkdreamtrip.com](http://www.dkdreamtrip.com) and let me know what you think.  
PS: If you win, I demand half of the £5,000 spending money. Seriously.
