Ok, well I am pretty new to flash but have been playing around with it for about a week or two.

My current site, [http://mike.avalanchestudios.net](http://mike.avalanchestudios.net), is made in HTML and I was advised by people who visited it, to make a flash version.

So, I toyed with the idea, scribbled down a few of my thoughts and decided to give it a shot…but…

I have a few questions:

1. Should I try to recreate a similar layout to the HTML version, then tweak it as time goes on, or should I make a completely different layout? Another possibility I thought of was to add flash features to the current site(i.e. the navigation menu) and eventually develop it into a flash site.

2. If I did make a flash site, should I have a HTML version(with a splash page first to direct a visitor to the right version for them) for those who don’t use/like flash sites?

3. I planned to use dynamic text boxes to display content, is this the best way?

It’s nothing big, just something to give me a little jump start.

Thanks.
