Hi, I wantto create a flash file where you browse for a jpeg on your machine and it then appears behind a grid. You can drag across the grid and it will show how many squares you have selected.

The grid/dragging bit shouldn’t be a massive problem but I am unsure as to how you could do the uploading of a jpeg and placing it behind the grid.

Does anyone have any ideas?

Many Thanks in advance :nose:
