Great list of sites! I do wish though that photographers would use Flash a little less. Often it distracts from their images.

If web designers would use less Flash maybe photographers (and everyone else) would follow. Flash is great and can do wonderful things, but I just hate seeing pure textual content trapped inside of Flash - ala the actual FWA site. I think you need to rethink how your site works when you require a button to tell you the URL of the article you're reading.

As for photography sites, the over-riding medium is visual, so you really have to expect Flash a lot of the time - although of course it would be nice to see some cutting edge HTML/CSS stuff involved.

Oops - my comment got mangled there.

Summary: the linked site is almost completely unusable. Can't open the links in a new tab, can't copy the links to the clipboard, can't bookmark anything but the front page, it takes too long for simple text content to load, I can't scroll with my mouse wheel or keyboard, I can't resize the tiny font, etc etc etc.

Lesson: Flash does not a good site make.
