I have done several sites in flash and several with photoshop, both seem to load really slow on dsl and dial up well forget it...

I have found using html and a very few graphics works really well people stay longer and view more pages..

anybody have any input on this matter?

thanks
Brandon

Flash may load quite slow. HTML is faster.

It would all have to do with page weight.

How big are the image files? How big is the flash file?

I prefer minimal images. For instance theNetPlace.com has only 7kb worth of images on the entire site, excluding the forum.

The sheer number of links makes some of the internal pages 30, 40 and 50kb in size without the added load of images. The home page is under 10kb in total weight.
