I’m doing this in an effort to make viewing a product catalogue better to view on dial-up, basically the next image should load in the background while the current one is being loaded.

I was thinking of making an object for each clip, although I’m getting a little lost on this, its late and I need to get to bed, so I thought I’d throw it up on here and see if anyone has any ideas! 🙂

Basically, right now the previous/next buttons aren’t dissapearing when they should be and the previous image doesn’t appear to be cached (needs to be tested in a browser to see this)

Any ideas?
