I don't know if it is possible to add a Flash banner into a Wordpress theme... Ideally, this banner would be in the header of the site always. Any ideas on how I might accomplish this?
A:
You need to edit the corresponding .php file that contains your banner (I don't know what version of WordPress you're using).
The code will be resource-intensive and ugly, though.

"resource-intensive and ugly" - that's a pretty broad statement!

Thank you for expressing your opinion with a downvote. And I was talking about the code, not Flash.

Yes, it's very much possible. What I would recommend is to use swfobject to replace the your current header with a Flash movie. This way it will degrade gracefully for everyone that lacks a proper flash player, and also you get the benefit of proper google indexing.

I've noticed that wordpress is extremely picky about how you add stuff to your pages. I found that I needed to use a plugin called Kimili Flash Embed. Once I activated that, I used their syntax to embed several flash pieces on my site.
Themes are just HTML templates. Basically, you can add any code, anywhere you like. The only thing you need to pay attention to is how other plugins interact with the templates.
