Flash

The Adobe Flash Player is software for viewing animations and movies using computer programs such as a web browser; in common usage,good animation and movies on a web site. The Flash Player was originally designed to display 2-dimensional vector animation, but has since become suitable for creating rich Internet applications and streaming video and audio. It uses vector graphics to minimize file size and create files that save bandwidth and loading time. Flash is a common format for games, animations, and GUIs embedded into web pages.  

Designers use flash because they are able to create animations which are commonly used for movies, and games on websites.  Flash is also good because it allows the designer to import phototshop and illustrator layers, convert animation to open-source ActionScript 3 and render faster.  

Below are some links to websites that use flash.
