OK I have put it in. It does slow down the load time of pages a bit and prob does make us a little less search engine bot friendly re indexing of pages - but lets see how it goes for a bit.

From Firefox/Linux it appears fine from imageshack, but not from talkcyprus - just says movie not loaded.

Also, the old pic used to also be a hyperlik that you could hit to reload the page... this one is not.

Looks nice otherwise...

I get the whole thing, but as pg said the hyperlink is missing...

Erol if you can't do a hyperlink I can do it tomorrow...

Erol you are right about the search...I did one in google and this forum didn't show up...I went as far as 5 pages

I remember we had the same problem with our web site and someone fixed it...I will found out tomorrow...

OK I seem to have sorted it in mozilla browsers (as long as you have flash installed)

Not sure how to do the hyperlink - I think that may need to be embedded into the swf file by you boomer ?

I'm not too keen on these animations. I can no longer click on the banner to take me home, and seeing the text reloading evertime i refresh the page is annoying. It should either be static, or just fade in once.

I have to say that those with dial up are going to struggle something rotten, this is an excellent banner and i like it but unfortunately many Cyprus users are going to struggle imo and we must think of them too.
