I’m going to make a game with an as3 project inside flash builder 4, all my graphics will be bitmaps and i was wondering what was the best practice for embedding, should i embed them every time i use them or have an static method that returns them? does embedding the same image in 2 classes cause the swf to get double weight for that ?, I’m aiming for a fast and light game
