You have a bad color scheme

In the flash version you put grey text on a greyish wiremesh background. This isn't "eye friendly."

Other than that, this is incredible. Flash is such a pain, and u did it amazing. Your html sites are also very sleek and well done.

Your site has a nice color scheme. It's simple but does the job effectively. Thereby, you should perhaps take that into consideration when making your site. Often, you'll see sites with 2 versions; high and low bandwidth. But three is pushing it. I see no point in teams having Flash as the basis of their site. A site should be easily accessible for information, not looks. Basically. I'd suggest a medium bandwidth page (no page loads other than pics that are greater than 250kb) which gets the information out and without frames.

I agree with you about the flash stuff. What really matters in a website is its content, altough there's always the image and animation enthusiasts, thereby we've tried to attend all the "tastes", that is also the reason of the "three ways" to visit the website, I don't know the common connections in US, but I believe, most of the users use broadband connections? Correct me if I'm wrong but in Brazil dial up connection is more common, so all the users can visualize the site without any major problems! Thanks for all

ASAP means A(s) S(oon) A(s) P(ossible). May I suggest posting all your stuff in one message, you can quickly get banned for spamming, or rising your post count with needless posts (not sure which one would classify this).
