There are many things to keep in mind when using Flash, especially if you intend your site to have a professional "feel" and want to have a lot of users.

First, there is no such thing as too little Flash. None is idea, some is useful, too much is garbage. Don't just use technology because you can. Falling into that trap leads to slow, clunky webpages with dynamic "everythings", annoying the user very quickly. Don't use any dynamic technology unless you have a clear reason for doing so, and particularly Flash. Its too easy to make bad pages that way.

A well-place, professional Flash addition greatly improves the effect of a website. An example of such a thing would be fading borders/mastheads, a menu system, and well-done animations. Cybersonics (Team 103, if memory serves me correctly) had an excellent Flash-based webpage. Flash served an auxiliary role in the layout, assisting the main body of the document, which was classic HTML.
