the ars thanea website is made with flash. its a bunch of swfs strung together with the loadMovie object. there are lots of portfolio sites out there made with flash. check them out. i get inspiration from them as for graphics and design sites, i know ultraweaver.com. i dont know of any flash site for graphics and design. go to macromedia developer center. u can pick up a lot of info there. i dont know about swish. sorry. i know it is a flash creation tool but i dont know if its compatible with the .fla format. swish may save its files in a different format. sorry i couldn't help.
