Please no more flash elements on the main page

[Breen]

Hello there,
I noticed the new 1on1 flash window.

Could you please stop putting more flash stuff on there? There's a total of 6 applets now.
For most people this isn't a problem, but my PC is pretty old so it almost crashes when loading all this stupid and useless stuff.

Please stop it.

Theory11 is a flash/html/other stuff page...its gonna have alot of Flash Objects on it...and Theory11 pays WA007 alot for this sweet design...so I dont think that they will be doin that anytime soon.

Why not just un-install flash player so it wont load the objects?

I love it and have no problem with it.

If only 1 person complains, while 10 others enjoy the flash (I have a thing for flash apps), would you think they would change it just for you?

Also, it's not about how old/new your computer is- it's the internet speed.

I'm a web designer/developer myself, and this is a HUGE debate that has been going on forever. I say just leave it, it looks nice and works well for the majority of your visitors.

@ Breen - This isn't the only page that causes you problems is it? Many websites use this much flash, sometimes even more. Sooner or later you'll have to update your computer, maybe sooner
