hi guys, once again im praying for the flash gods in here to help me out: thanks in advance guys, i know this has been asked before but i just cant figure it out heres whats going on: im attaching a movieclip from the library into an empty movie clip (mc\_container) in my main timeline ( my entire swf has 2 scenes, first one is a preloader, second scene is the main one and is just 1 frame long), if i export for first frame it drives the preloader (for background images) crazy! i found this thread :[http://www.kirupaforum.com/forums/showthread.php?t=43421&highlight=attach+movie](http://www.kirupaforum.com/forums/showthread.php?t=43421&highlight=attach+movie)… this is basically the problem im having, the thing is i dont really understand the second solution ☹ (the one of creating a second empty frame, tried that and didnt work either) thanks in advance for any help cheers \>.\< c
