Someone has asked me to revise something in flash, but I'm wondering if it is worth it. I know the guy does not want to have his flash completely redone, but he might be happier with the same basic images changing on his website, but done in something else. What do you think?

Here is his site: http://arcsolar.us/

Thanks for any advice :)

Due to all the mobile devices that now are being used - and the use is increasing - flash has become more or less 'out'. There are various slideshows to mbe found, in javascript, CSS etc that can have much of the same effect as a flash solution. If I were to do something with that site, I'd try to find something without flash.

Do you think I could use CC latest Photo Gallery to replace that flash on the website for better results? What they have does not look that complicated.

The CC Photo Gallery is still flash powered. Check out the slide show I have here: http://www.johnsflats.com . This one is js and CSS.

@AmyBills that is a very good looking site I must admit...But like everyone has said everything it moving away from Flash its not the way to go. I have had some luck with WOW Slider which is Jquery. You be able to come up with something nice with WOW Slider. Plus you can haggle them guys on price, email them I got a 85% discount but I think I was lucky.
