http://2advanced.com. The website is pretty cool, but having never developed a site in Flash, I can only wonder this: how does this website run so smoothly?
I am under the impression that Flash sites tend to be more memory-costly than other sites. I put in a Flash animation on a site, and the whole thing slowed down dramatically. Now I'm certain the animation wasn't optimized (it was a one-time thing), but this beast is HUGE! I've checked it on FF, IE6-8. I mean, IE6 ran it without skipping a beat.
I suppose the question simply, which of these is true?
1. The site in particular is very optimized
2. Flash websites are not as memory-hogging as I thought
3. I'm missing something entirely
Thanks in advance guys. I want to start getting into making Flash sites, and I'm trying to gather as much information as possible.
