Thanks
I Just used this to create my first ever pre-loader so it definitey works. I even used your method to avoid the simulate downlaod error. Can you possibly explain why it goes white before the preloader starts tho as another Reviewer mentioned?

Actually I haven`t got a clue.
Im fairly new to flash myself so all I can do is guess.
One possibility would be that the flash shows the white background while the preloaderimage isn`t loaded yet.
In this case there wouldn`t be much one could do.
However since henke37 used it as a term, this seems unlikely.
The other possibility would be that the flash loads something before the preloader, in wich case one would need to use scripting to tell the flash what to load first. And I do not know how or where.
Of course there could also be a completly different reason.
Lacks deepth
Uhm, aren't programming tutorials supposed to work properly?
And where is the even more interesting stuff? Like how to not get a white preloader and why that happens?
And seriously, do you even know about the smulate download feature in flash? You should not only have used it to verify that the movie worked properly, but also mentioned it in the tutorial.
Work harder, you have the spirit, but the execution lacks.

You are of course right, i should have included the simulate download (I think i will include it as soon as i get time, so thank you for the suggestion : ) )
Cool!
I liked the way you could hover over the actionscript to see what it does, I think that makes it easier to learn and remember, so you can use it for other things. Very well laid out and easy to understand!!!!!!!!!!
koool
i like this i very interesting
Cool!
