Flash websites are becoming easier to embed, navigate and handle by the minute. One great feature that you can use to present your business to clients is deep linking. This allows you to get a unique link for every section of the template, which is dynamically generated based on the section name.

How is this useful? Well, if you want to send a client the link for a specific image, you can do that just like with a regular HTML site.  To see how it works, here are three awesome Flash templates developed by FWDesign that you can use if you are passionate about your business and want it to grown, but don’t have the technical programmer skills to do it yourself.

What better name for a developer that is both creative and practical than Kcreation? This author has been selling Flash components on our website for a while now and, even though he doesn’t have a vast portfolio, the few files he’s got definitely made the trick. Hopefully, this post will encourage him to share more of his creative files on FlashComponents.net.

One of the files that got my attention is Slider Accordion Menu /Media Viewer. We’ve got other accordion menus on the website, but what makes this one special is the fact that you can use modules with enhanced content.

This modules include the complete set of: text, video, slideshows, photo blocks, photo scroller and a world map.

I recommend you also take a look at his Vertical Slider Menu/Info Viewer, which I bet you’re going to like. For other creative files from Kcreation, check out his portfolio here.
