Thanks for the comment Bluetone....On mine the audio finishes about a minute before the frames do...when I inserted the mp3 audio in it the layer it is on goes way past where the music actually plays so i was wondering about that... when you play it in flash so i can watch it as it plays.... i saw where the music actually ended but am a little confused now if you say the music went on After the pics stopped...hum...Guess I will try to see it on some other systems...I hear ya about the preloader giving a time to finish and keeping file size down...at the end I just kinda of wanted to leave it hanging like that for effect...leaving the person wanting more hopefully :)Didnt realize I could make different Quality ones....have to pay more attention there...when I was sizing the jpeg images down i should have made 2, one optimized and one at full pixel quality for a choice...thks for the input.
