Very good collections..Thanks for sharing….

Hi,
This is a very nice collection, really impressive. Another source of Flash Templates that I found these days is here: http://www.flashxml.net/templates/ , are customizable through xml files, so it’s very easy to work with them, I recommend it.
Monday, January 23rd, 2012 10:49
Great collection. It is really inspirational for me
thankyou
Friday, November 25th, 2011 19:09
I’ve also been wondering about the similar idea personally lately. Happy to see a person on the same wavelength! Nice article.
Thursday, November 24th, 2011 18:33
How did they make suck kind of flash websites? Please anyone tell me, I too want to be a great website designer, pls help me, i m just a script kiddie now, but i can be an awesome creator, tell me pls how they make flash sites???????????? Pls
Thursday, November 3rd, 2011 08:43
very well collection of sites,
esp. Audi & goldspun.
Thursday, September 8th, 2011 09:09
Those aren’t really 3D websites. Those are more 3d animated videos and some flash motion tweens. Real 3D websites use flash layers with images and are x,y,z controlled using xml… like this one… http://3d.versitek.com That’s a 3D website… and yet I haven’t seen any like that on this page.
Monday, August 15th, 2011 20:20
It’s a huge error to make a 100% Flash site. They eliminate all iDevice users, and many Flash elements cause problems like stalling and crashing. I’m impressed with non-Flash websites that are still jaw-dropping.
This is an A+ collection though. I would use the ideas to create non-Flash pages with 3D design elements on them.
Friday, August 19th, 2011 14:55
True as. I reckon plugin based 3D rendering is definately not a good choice. Flash is way too dumb for real time and realastic 3D simulations and animations. webGL is heaps heaps heaps better for GPU acclerated 3D graphics on the web compared to dumb flash. Most of the web browsers doesn’t comes with flash player pre installed.
Wednesday, July 27th, 2011 17:51
I found a nice one these days: maxxi3dweb.com, interesting portfolio 3D!
Friday, July 8th, 2011 18:54
It’s interesting to note that a lot of these sites have abandoned their 3D versions and switched to a non-3d site. Loading times are horrendous on a lot of these and once their loaded, I found it wasn’t worth the wait. Good source of inspiration, but for mimicking purposes only, not actually building sustainable sites.
Sunday, June 19th, 2011 10:02
Now A Days 3 Became more popular,all graphical madia is switch to 3-D & 3-Gcomes under wireless network.
So I think its most important envoirnment for me like new developer.
Monday, June 6th, 2011 01:41
Too flashy, not very navigational. Sorry, was not really impressed.
Wednesday, February 23rd, 2011 14:00
Really Great Great Combination of 3D and Flash. Great Websites
Monday, October 18th, 2010 10:47
Beautiful sites, I like 3D applications including websites, it is a different experience.
Saturday, September 25th, 2010 22:07
3D with Flash is the best visual experience I believe. 3D is somethign which will alwasy give flash an edge over html5 & jQuery
Friday, February 12th, 2010 20:36
Element site was wild, although it took 10 minutes to load on 1Mbps broadband. As a marketing tool, it fails as not one would wait that long to view.
Friday, January 22nd, 2010 19:41
I have to say that Gears of War site is excellent; excellent game with an excellent flash website..
Thursday, January 14th, 2010 12:47
I like them… But I only watched 2 so far, because they take ages to load, if I’d hit one of those pages on my own I’d have clicked them away before they would have finished loading.
Saturday, January 9th, 2010 14:29
Nice, lots of creative stuff here! Thanks
Thursday, January 7th, 2010 20:48
The animations are out of this world, they must’ve been really fun to create..
Thursday, January 7th, 2010 19:12
Very cool! I wrote a thesis about 3D and websites (interactive experiences) a year ago. And now you have given so many good examples!
Thursday, January 7th, 2010 17:53
WOW! awesome color and really Bright Great write up, i remember the Ge open they have a really cool webcam thing going where you print out a paper and show it to your webcam and something cool happens.
Friday, January 8th, 2010 01:36
Kris is right. The site’s creativity is awesome, but Flash is such a bulky ugly item to use. Not too mention, have fun with Google understanding what your site is about without any content.
If you want great 3d, you should start supporting c3dl/webgl. Flash is too much overhead, when you can have javascript interface directly with GL.
Thursday, January 7th, 2010 17:14
Great article. Really gives you some ideas of using 3D on websites and design.
Awesome – thx :O)

Of course, flash has his pros and cons.

Sure, you’ll right, but there are companies, which don’t care about Google either and they just want to stand out in endless creativity. It was hard for me to understand that approach either – but if company has great clients and network, they don’t need to worry about Google,some people whose browsers don’t support flash at all or maybe they cannot load it because of slow internet connection.
Not all websites and companies think about usability in first place, but you cannot deny how creative and professional those websites are.
