I would also like to add that using a redirect page as your main link is not a good thing to do. It really annoys most users and novice users can't figure out how to get out.
(Hit back, get redirected, hit back, get redirected... it is an endless cycle unless you know what you are doing)
But, to answer the original question, content is more important than looks. Flash is nice as an addition to a page, but to make the entire page out of it tends to take away from the information of a site.)
Good design, like was said before, is simple, elegant and most importantly, cross browser compatible.
And now for the shameless plug:
If you want to see a site that I think contains good content and is relatively simply designed, visit
