Minus the fact that the flash commandeered my screen I liked it the best. Even though flash eats bandwidth, its still better visualy. In fact I'd suggest taking it furethr like having the pics in there. As long as you provide html for the dialups then your set. In the near future html will be gone the way of the Dodo along with dialups so it would be better for students to learn a "language"/software that will be around longer.
