I was pretty much confused by one of activeden.net forum topics with a discussion about flash perspectives.

Huge drop of flash templates sales made me research the topic. Few years ago when flash had no competitors flash templates were the most required sort of templates, now things have changed a bit. Hope these graphs shed some light on reality.

In this post I would like to share my recent observations of commercial Flash CMS templates and just want to drop a couple of lines shedding some light of FancyCMS products.

The flagman of Fancy products is FancyPlus CMS application which we described a while ago. It’s a powerful Flash content management system with open source files available for 3rd parties developers under special “success share program” for Flash developers. This product include numerous content modules like  Flash photo gallery, flash video gallery, small flash blog, newsletter, manageable flash contact forms and much more. In a couple of words the application provides huge number of tools which is probably much more than average user may need. The cost of the templates for the application is $42(fixed price), though you can find lot’s of free cms templates as well.

The next product we would like to mention id FancyFlip – it’s a free Flip Book CMS based on open source flip book engine Megazine3 created by outstanding  German Flash programmer Florian Nücke. This CMS application is also free and allows import PDF files and create flash flip books with unlimited number of pages and extremely customizable templates.

The last but not the least is a tiny Flash Gallery CMS aimed at protographers and artists willing to share their images on line. Commercial templates come at $15 only and have great set of features like auto play, full screen, 2 level menu structure.

All these CMS web templates can be found at www.fancycms.com

I would love to share some of my sales experience through different flash market places, this article is a brief and unprejudiced report about the sales results I made through some websites selling flash files of other authors as well.  In this post I will compare only Flashcomponents.net and flashmint.com . I submitted some of my files to other websites as well but flashden rejected all of them, buystockflash.com generated only one sale during 6!!!!! month, templates.com never got back to me to respond.

So here what I have. At the moment I have 47% commission plan as a non exclusive author at flashcomponents.net and 35% at flashmint.com with the same non exclusive terms.

Here is some information regarding Advanced XML Driven Template

Sales Number         Template Cost      Revenue

FMint.com                                          23                                   50                       $402.5

FComponents.net                            28                                   20                      $263.2

As you see flashmint.com makes less sales but due to sufficiently higher bid my revenue was almost twice better, though flashcomponents.net attracts more customers due to lower price policies. Both of market places have one really big advantage which is developers friendly policy, these guys are not looking for reasons to reject your design but look for opportunities to help the designer make product better and sell items safely.

FancyCMS team has been keeping silence for last month but as we know from very reliable sources they are working really hard on the back end of the flash cms application. As the front end part is 100% ready right now the guys are developing 2 versions of admin panel. The 1st version will work online and will be based on Flex application allowing to manage site structure and content. Another version is desktop windows application which can work both on line and off line and sync the data when the Internet connection is available. According to the information we have windows application will come with backup/restore plugin and special flash e commerce plugin allowing to track sales in real time, generate sales statistics and analysis reports. If all is true this is going to be the most promising flash cms we ever met

According to the information posted at FlashMoto blog on April, the 15th, FlashMint.com becomes one more developer who use FlashMoto CMS to create flash websites. This sort of collaboration must enforce FlashMoto position as reliable platform for flash developers and also is supposed to be a convincing proof and invitation message to other web developers.

In a few weeks flashmint is planning to launch a new series of flash CMS templates based on Flash Moto Content Management System. By giving wide choice of template the company hopes to increase the number of sales and attract new customers. The advantage of Flashmoto driven templates is advanced flex based admin interface allowing to manage the design of the website in visual mode by means of using flash drag and drop technology. Though these conveniences are pretty expensive(avera flash moto template costs in the range of $250) the solution is considered to be the most cost effective so far.
