It's easy - all you need to do, is add:

<BR><A HREF="http://www.nuonce.net/MAINPAGE-URL.php";>skip intro</A>

after the flash html.

One of the silliest things I see is when they have "skip intro" 
actually ON the intro.  Some of us don't even want to load flash at all.

Agreed; are you donating any of your money back to the osCommerce team, 
though?  That'd be a nice move... after all, $99 is a fair bit, 
considering.

(Don't take this as an attack; it's not meant to be that).
