actually back then it was more of a novelty than annoying.. and you'd be surprised at how much of the development wasn't actually driven by the developers themselves.. the companies ASKED for these kinds of sites.. i certainly wasn't pushing it onto them
companies wanted flash intros for a long time after i tried to tell them it wasn't the best idea.
Toyota once asked us to put their ENTIRE 2000 product line in a flash intro - and even after being told firmly it would be a 200kb+ monstrosity that no one would watch they still asked to go ahead. the companies were even more hooked on the tech than the developers were.
