Hey Guys,  
I’m trying to fade an instance of a UILoader from 100% to 25%. It jumps straight to 25% without the fade. what did I do wrong? any help would be so greatly appreciated.

briandrumpic\_mc.alpha = 1;  
this.addEventListener(Event.ENTER\_FRAME, fadeOut);

function fadeOut(event:Event):void {  
briandrumpic\_mc.alpha = briandrumpic\_mc.alpha -0.05;

if (briandrumpic\_mc.alpha \>= .25) {  
briandrumpic\_mc.alpha = .25;  
this.removeEventListener(Event.ENTER\_FRAME, fadeOut);  
}

}
