I just got started in web designing. I have finished loading two sites. and they are very very slow to load. They are flash sites published in html and then called in dreamweaver for loading. We have used AS2 for coding in flash. It is single file of 3.2 and 2.8 MB respectively. Is that two heavy for a website. How do i make these sites faster without removing the animation or losing on the quality of images i have used. I have tried to go as low as possible for the images.
PLease help me make these sites faster.

Second website is plain ugly and also both really takes too much time to acces the needed info the people want to get from the website. You need to learn to have better interface to get faster around the website. Also loose the intro nowadays nobody does intro because everyone hates them. Only sites that may have some intro are movies but those intro are often directly the trailer of the movie.

For your question
"Is that two heavy for a website. How do i make these sites faster without removing the animation or losing on the quality of images i have used. I have tried to go as low as possible for the images."
- Yes, 3 MB is big for a website. What you can do is divide the animations into sets of "modules" meaning you'll have a different "module" for the layout, a different "module" for the content and so on. That way you can show the user a preview of your website while waiting for the content to load. And yes, ditch the intro, frankly most users skip this. Use vector images whenever you can, this saves on space and bandwidth. For images, it doesn't need to be a 100%, you can do with 85% quality most of the time.

You have a all high techy design with revolving cubes and your using a font that a comic artist would use in a speech bubble.

see the flash animations do have bigger sizes. i would suggest you to use one of the few web animation software 3DMLW editor called QuantumHog...it is an open source community product and very easy to use. you can create web based animations of very small size by using this software.
