Die, Flash, Die

I belittle sites that look stupid or become useless when viewed with a Flash blocker. Screenshots are taken with ClickToFlash enabled. Feel free to submit a screenshot or a site for me to publish here.

This is the company that made the brilliant short video, Pixels - thoroughly recommended for anyone who’s played video games in the 80s.

Pity about how the site looks with ClickToFlash enabled, though - all that Flash really seems a little unnecessary. The top icons are just small Flash animations (which can be replaced with CSS animations), and the Flash on the video thumbnail  on mouse-over is for rendering the video title in a special font (which can be accomplished with font-face - see Google’s just-announced font API).
