[FONT=Arial]I’m not an actionscripter but an artist with limited actionscript knowledge. For over two weeks now I’ve been trying to get a piece of code together but keep running into endless brick walls. I would have thought this would be easy but there hasn’t been anyone out there capable of showing me the final solution so far.[/FONT]

[FONT=Arial]I’m looking for a result similar to this tutorial [/FONT][[FONT=Arial][FONT=Verdana][COLOR=#ff4400]http://www.republicofcode.com/tutorials/flash/xmlimagegallery/[/COLOR][/FONT][/FONT]](http://www.republicofcode.com/tutorials/flash/xmlimagegallery/)[FONT=Arial] but with a few specific changes. I haven’t uploaded my attempts at the code because it probably will complicate things.[/FONT]

[FONT=Arial]The source files are located at the bottom of this link: [/FONT][[FONT=Arial][FONT=Verdana][COLOR=#ff4400]http://www.republicofcode.com/tutorials/flash/xmlimagegallery/7.php[/COLOR][/FONT][/FONT]](http://www.republicofcode.com/tutorials/flash/xmlimagegallery/7.php)

[FONT=Arial]What I am trying to acheive is the above gallery but which specifically does the following when a thumbnail is pressed:[/FONT]

[FONT=Arial]- Show the preloader (whilst keeping the current image on screen). [/FONT]  
[FONT=Arial]- When the preloader has finished **then** fade the current image to alpha=0[/FONT]  
[FONT=Arial]- Slight Pause[/FONT]  
[FONT=Arial]- **After** the pause fade the next image in to alpha=100. [/FONT]

[FONT=Arial]- In addition I’ve been trying to get the thumbnails alpha to be 50%. Then on onRollover and onRelease to set the alpha to 100%. Similar to this: [/FONT][[FONT=Arial]http://www.republicofcode.com/tutorials/flash/imagegallery/[/FONT]](http://www.republicofcode.com/tutorials/flash/imagegallery/)

[FONT=Arial]If anyone can **actually** do this then please post. But don’t post unless you have tested and confirmed it because I can’t be running backwards and forwards anymore.[/FONT]
