    Goto http://highsco.re

    example: http://highsco.re/play/Monster-Bash/

    Scroll down and see the embed code in text box ?

    Paste it STRAIGHT into a new post.

    Like this:

    <object classid="clsid:D27CDB6E-AE6D-11cf-96B8-444553540000"
codebase="http://download.macromedia.com/pub/shockwave/cabs/flash/swflash.cab"
width="500" height="350">
<param name="movie" value="http://www.highsco.re/content/swf/monster_bash.swf" />
<param name="quality" value="high" /><embed src="http://www.highsco.re/content/swf/monster_bash.swf" quality="high"
pluginspage="http://www.macromedia.com/go/getflashplayer" type="application/x-shockwave-flash"
width="500" height="350"></embed></object></object>

    You can resize by changing width and height settings of the movie like so:

    <object classid="clsid:D27CDB6E-AE6D-11cf-96B8-444553540000" codebase="http://download.macromedia.com/pub/shockwave/cabs/flash/swflash.cab" width="600" height="450"> <param name="movie" value="http://www.highsco.re/content/swf/asteroids.swf" /> <param name="quality" value="high" /><embed src="http://www.highsco.re/content/swf/asteroids.swf" quality="high" pluginspage="http://www.macromedia.com/go/getflashplayer" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" width="600" height="450"></embed></object></object>

    In this case I changed to 600 by 450 in 2 places.

    personally there are risk involved, I would only allow it from a whitelist of sites, where user content is not directly inputed, but the has been processed like video.

    There are potential problem with exploits especially with older browsers, and other spoof techniques, like transparency and overlay.

    grep is your friend.
