Do webmasters welcome video galleries in Flash? I believe in the past they were not accepted in TGPs...

Hmmm... I would like an answer to that one as well. From what I can see TGP owners are creating some good Flash galleries, but i don't see many submitters doing it.
On the straight side it is pretty taboo. There was a whole thread about it on a couple of the boards. To the straight webmasters it had to deal with security. Many of the link list owners and TGP owners had issues with webmasters submitting anything Flash.
And of course, many TGPs/LinkLists etc. wont list something that they wont let webmasters submit.
Will be interesting to see if TGPS that have open submissions allow this and if they don't do they use them themselves.
I will post flash galleries from my sponsors (FHG's) on my own TGP.
The feedback we've had from webmasters about our flash galleries is that alot of the TGP scripts used take automatic screenshots from the WMV or MPG itself and that automation doesn't work with Flash video so it's not a fast and easy copy/paste, they would manually need to create screenshots/thumbs per gallery
We've started making flash galleries, mainly for our own use on our sites, but we were going to make them available to our affiliates that wanted them.

You could get around this by combining flash with pics....Quote:
