Because of the prevalence of malware sites, many surfers have JavaScript turned of by default. This means that if you have a JavaScript front page, these people will probably pass you by. Flash presentations on the home page are also problematic as people without high-speed connections will turn elsewhere.
It all depends on the function of your website, of course. Each site should have a specific primary purpose. If yours is to serve as a portfolio for potential collectors or high-end galleries who are likely to have the latest computer systems, and whom you send there, then a Flash presentation on the home page might be OK. Still, if a busy person has to spend too much time waiting for what they came for, they may move on. In general, you want your site to present your work with the same respect a good gallery would present it.
