  I desperately need to know if WordPress supports ‘swf’ or ‘flash’ files. Also whether it would be alright to post things for sale on the blog.

  can you post things for sale?

  Are you the creator of whatever it is that you wish to sell? If not, then the answer is “no”.

  thank you, thank you, thank you! and i am sorry if i came across as bossy with regards to needing answers right away. the reason i asked about the selling is because i have created what may be the worlds very first editable stationery and i wanted to post some samples of it and a button that would link to my two stores.

  once again, i am sorry if i offended anyone, it was unintentional, believe me.

  blessed be,
