Anyway, what I noticed is that it has that quick flashing images technique often used in commercials to give it that hi energy feel. Yet the fla file sizes are quite small [ under 300k],.

I am wondering about 2 things: what are the techniques used to make those flashing images... is it using an image in a single frame, blanking the next frame and then putting the image in again at a different location /size for another single frame? and then flashing off? Is that long enough for eye recognition?

The motions are fast and continuous. It seems unnatural to the way flash works to create them frame by frame... no tweens, e.g. So, I am wondering if other programs are used to establish that technique or how they are done in flash generally.

The second thing is: how do they keep the files so small when they apparently have a lot of images and different images loaded into the file that flash for only a second or so...
