Flashy dilemma

for

I am in the midst of conducting a Web accessibility audit for
www.neilsquire.ca (finally). I haven't worked with Flash before. Is there
any way to make the revolving series of pictures more accessible (and less
annoying)? Personally I would like to suggest a series of static images
instead, but that may simply be personal taste.

I also welcome other feedback. I am trying to convince them that, with
appropriate changes, a text-only site is not necessary -- their idea, not
mine! They want a professional site to appeal to potential donors and seem
to think that means sacrificing accessibility. Will people ever get it???

Cheers,
Glenda
