  Holy crap! That's way cool! I'm not sure it's suitable for banner ad delivery though.

Flash is big for a reason. Small file size format and easy to integrate..

Is there some reason you can use it?

instead of Flash, GIF images and scripts are better because, while using Flash the load time for that page increases and user may not show much interest.

  Flash is lightweight and the standard for animation, it breaks a lot of web standards, isn't SEO friendly at all and too many people use it incorrectly.
  
  Oh yeah, for sure. It'd have to be all internal.
  
  Yeah, people like shiny things.
