I need to come up with some examples of "how to do it right."

Grateful for any links you'd care to share.

:hi:

1. Do you mean as an interface?
Or would you include cartoons and such? http://www.homestarrunner.com would probably be a pretty good example of both, I think.

2. OMG, that's a riot! A bit on the comical side, for what I need, but...
... definitely a well-done site. Thanks! :D

3. Sadly, one of the better examples of how to use Flash well...
... is the Hummer site, http://www.hummer.com

Sucky product, but an interesting website.

10. Weebl
In sort of the same vein as H*R, I'd offer stuff by a guy who goes by the name "Weebl". Funny Brit. Does motion better than H*R (saying nothing of the content's quality, mind you, just that Weebl's stuff often looks better).

Weebl & Bob or Other stuff that Weebl & friends do.

7. Kewl. The 2advanced stuff is very trippy.
The other two examples will be very useful to me, too. I'm trying to add flash-y elements to my company's website, without get too "out there" for the tastes of our users.

Thanks for the links!
