Oh, God, Flash. I *hate* flash-based sites. The thing is, you have already established a brand -- meaning that I know in general who Charles Stross is and what his public persona is like -- and it seems silly to fiddle with the Web presence now.
Baen's idea of selling ARCs online is genius. I wind up paying them twice for several authors; what's not to love? And there is a Website that really, really does needs redesign in general; I have to hit the zap colors (https://www.squarefree.com/bookmarklets/zap.html) bookmarklet every time I visit. Content trumps design if you already know what you want from a site and can get it.
