Ok!

How do I add a flashfile into one of my Geocities pages?
I have the file stored on my computer. (its a PhotoShow produktion!)

I assume that geocities allows you to upload files either through the browser or FTP?

Whilst in flash, with your file open, press SHIFT and F12 and flash will produce a SWF file and a HTML file with the necessary embed code it in. You can then take that code and use it on any page.

Yeah, Sirkent's right. But in Geocities make sure you upload the file first, then Select the Insert Code feature. Copy and paste that code into This box, and then drag and drop it where ya want it to show up.

On another note, you are only alotted 3MB of Bandwidth a day before geocities will shut you off for that day. So flash generally does use up that Bandwidth pretty quickly. What I used to do when I used flash and geocities, was I created a different account for all my flash movies and linked to them.
