Hello, how do I change the default logo.gif to a flash object?

Not with the default skinobject, only by hardcoding it into the skin, or using an alternative module

I personally perfer to put a flash logo into a container / module instead of handcoding it. There is a slight advantage to doing this. If you handcode it into the skin your users based on browser options / type could end up waiting for the flash file to finish fully loading before the skin finishes rendering. Typically older IE / Mac based browsers that do basic top down loading. By splitting out the flash from the skin your site can render the skin / page contents even if the flash is still bending loading. Now granted this doesn't make much difference if your talking about a small flash file, but I have seen a few sites where they used way to much flash for a logo and it really killed the response times. Not to mention you can use some really nice free flash modules to control refresh / run times / etc.
