Hi!
Most of the flash is showing, but I noticed some relative links to some of the flash files...
For example:
planet_logo.swf
victors_auto.swf
j&b_ripple.swf ----------> ( this should be changed to "j_b_ripple.swf" )
get_cartooned_animated2.sw
If you change all these links to include http://www.godvalinchiart.org/ you should be good to go...
For example:
change
planet_logo.swf
to
http://www.godvalinchiart.org/planet_logo.swf
Let me know if you need more help on this...

I think I might have messed things up even worst. Maybe i should have studied my html before I opened my store. All of that code drives me insane.
Don't worry, you'll get there :)
Why do you think you messed things up ?
I suggest you open the page in FrontPage and go into "Code" view.
Take a deap breath :) and start looking for your flash references.
Then simply insert your domain name before the filename, e.g.
<embed src="http://www.godvalinchiart.org/planet_logo.swf" ...
When you're finished editing the source code, first copy the code and upload it to your eBay store, then you can save the page in FrontPage...
I may have to finish this in the morning. I thought I just did everything you said but it still wont show up.
What I'll do is edit the code for you and upload it as a txt file. Then all you need to do is copy and paste the code.
May take me a while, but should have it done by tomorrow morning...
If you want then, you can compare the code to see what I've changed...

Ok, I hope this helps...
I've enclosed all flash movies with comments like this:
<!-- FLASH MOVIE -->
code here...
<!-- END FLASH -->
If you need to change the flash movie, just go into the code and change the filename ( the name that comes after http://www.godvalinchi.org/ ). Note that you need to do this twice for each flash movie - once for the <object> tag and once for the <embed> tag.
You can also change the width and height, but you need to also do this twice for each (when editing the source code)...
For example:
If you want to change the following flash movie...
<p><!-- FLASH MOVIE -->
<object classid="clsid:D27CDB6E-AE
<param name="movie" value="http://www.godvalinchiart.org/victors_auto.swf">
<param name="quality" value="High">
<embed src="http://www.godvalinchiart.org/victors_auto.swf" pluginspage="http://www.macromedia.com/go/getflashplayer" type="application/x-shockw
</object>
<!-- END FLASH --></p>
...to show a different one ( let's call it "flash8.swf" ) with width=300 and height=200 you'd change it to this...
<p><!-- FLASH MOVIE -->
<object classid="...stays the same..." codebase="...stays the same..." border="0" width="300" height="200">
<param name="movie" value="http://www.godvalinchiart.org/flash8.swf">
<param name="quality" value="High">
<embed src="http://www.godvalinchiart.org/flash8.swf" pluginspage="...stays the same..." type="...stays the same..." width="300" height="200" quality="High">
</object>
<!-- END FLASH --></p>
