I do use some flash components for sites, and I have been learning actionscript to animate. I am very upfront about the options clients have- they can get an HTML site, or a flash/HTML combination site. In addition to the site, they also get features like member areas, online stores, SEO, marketing/promotions, photo galleries, training, and overall business competition/strategy assistance. All for a very sexy $300.
The bottom line is, I deliver a solid, complete website, at a terrific price and fast delivery time. And I'm busting my ass 12-14 hours a day to do it.
Also, your statement was incorrect. When I use any kind of package for resale to my clients, I have purchased the licenses for all products sold, and provide that documentation to my clients. With as many haters as I have, I just gotta follow the rules. If I do my job correctly, much of it *looks* like a template, when what you're really seeing is a series of integrated flash pieces to create a unique site viewing experience.
