OK, some advice:
The links to the swfs don't work. I am lead to believe that this is because you can't link directly to swfs from geocities. I've never tried this myself so I may be wrong, but you may have more luck if you put them in an html page. (this may be patronising, sorry if it is) you can set flash to automatically generate an html page for you, by ticking the html box in publish settings.
Also, please don't post the same thing repeatedly here- it will annoy people, not get their attention. Everything that's posted has a fair run on the front page before it drops off, and it's a fair bet that if it didn't get much response, you should try something new. We all look at the responses to our posts as they go down the board- by posting multiple times you are knocking other people's stuff off- this will annoy them, not make them happy.
Re flaming- sometimes there will be breaches of etiquette. when this is deliberate idiocy, then we can just ignore it, or in extreme cases someone with editorial rights will delete. When it's unintentional, then we should probably explain how things work here rather than be nasty. I hate to think of people coming here and going away feeling hurt and resentful- we're all nice people. I would hate to think that we came across as elitist or cliquey, when infact all we are is damn good. I honestly believe that, even if there is a serious breach, we should never be insulting if that breach was mistaken.
OK, I'll shut up now. I'm drunk, it probably shows. Let's all get on with doing what we do best hey?

you can e-mail me the files. I can post em from my site and give you the credits. Otherwise, you'd have to do html like Mr. Vietch said (which is a real pain if you don't know html like me), or upgrade your geocities membership (you'd have to pay for it, but it's not too bad) so you can do remote viewing. I don't wanna make myself out to be superior or anything by saying that, but just trying to be helpful as someone who's been where you are.
