There seems to be a backlash toward flash at the moment. This backlash is caused by needless use of the programme. Remember it has a 97 % accessability rate (Macromedias figures) that remaining 3% is still a lot of people and HTML/Javascript will be needed for a while to come.

If you take a look at sites like http://www.createonline.co.uk a lot of the designers on there are positively ANTI flash (as well as being pompous tw*ts). Some people click straight through when they see a flash movie loading.

The general rule is to use it where it's needed, content is king.

I think that the jobs market is split in two - flash developers and graphic designers who have flash skills, you need to think about which sector you want to work for. (and think hard - coding all day is no fun!)

All I'm saying is keep your options open. The flash on your main site is outstanding and your design skills are unquestionable. For the sake of proving what you say about HTML I'd do the resume in HTML.

Don't get me wrong though I love flash, I'm just concerned that those entering the industry at the moment shouldn't concentrate on flash without having other skills. Think of your long term career prospects.

At the moment I'm teaching myself Director, simply because I can see bandwidth opening right up in the next 5 years or so.

With regard to your age, I don't know how old you are and I coudn't care less and that's the beauty of the internet, you could be 9, 99 black, white, handicapped - no prejudices.

Good luck with the job hunting.
