I’ve taken an interest in Scalable Inman Flash Replacement (sIFR) but it is way to much work to use for the crap I might want to use it for. There is a WordPress cg-Flashytitles that looks like it would work but I think the version is wrong or incompatible with WordPress 2.1.
It would be even better if sIFR eventually used SVG.
sIFR 3 beta 1 exists as of December 2006 so I am glad it is still in active development. I can’t tell how long it will be before a useful plugin for WordPress exists with the new version.
