Hey all. I’ve got another simple question.

I have a mc who’s bitmap that is associated with him I want to change.

To be specific, I have:  
Block\_0 mc = 20X20 square as it’s image.  
Block\_1 mc = 80X80 square as it’s image.  
BlankClip = no image

When BlankClip is first created, I want to tell it to either have the same image as Block\_0 or Block\_1.

Looking it up online, it seems like I have to use BitmapData somehow, but I’m really unfamiliar with things…

I’ve been working on this same code for about 2 hours…

Thanks a bunch!
