Thanks for the advice about IFrames…I’ll definately look into them As for the preloader, I felt that since the files were pretty small that they weren’t really necessary. My connect speed is regularly 31k and it loaded up fairly decent. What file size do peeps commonly use as a cutoff to determine whether or not a preloader is required? Thanks for the prop on the nav menu…it was a PITA but I like how it turned out. ---

I think your nav should be either java script or html…for example I have no flash7 so everytime I click something on ur nav opens up but asks me to download flash 7 even do I have it installed on my computer… but I love the look and feel of it peace
