Summary
Allow upload of flash animations to commons in order to complement text.
Proposal
Flash animations can give a good overview of many topics (how stuff works, how different processes occur etc.) They are more comprehensive and interesting than a plain text. They would be good complement to many articles. We do have gif animations, but they happen to be insufficient and obsolete. Obviously, it don't have to be Flash specifically, if there's a good open-source alternative we could use this one.
Motivation
Making articles easier to understand.
Key Questions
Is there a free alternative for Flash?
Potential Costs
Extra bandwidth and storage space required for these animations p'raps?
