yeah this style of forum is a very popular opensource php package.

There's a configuration page for admins to adjust the forum to suit the needs.
it is popular for this very reason

im nearly positive that it would be possible to include a flash file - the location of the file on the server would need to be referenced within the page code. im sure sunesha will have it down...

the reasons people usually shy away from including flash include:

1. download time: flash files can get quite large and if so can take quite some time to display. this is not suitable in the case of a forum where the logo is reloaded on every page. however, the logo animation i have in mind would not be over 8kb - i doubt the current logo would be any smaller than 4kb.

2. Compatibility: if needed i can make the animation backwards compatible for all versions of the flashplayer, making it viewable by all users of the page.

just some food for thought
