Hello, [Kirupa.com](http://Kirupa.com) Users,

I am putting together a holidays card similar to what the folks at monoface created [http://www.mono-1.com/monoface/main.html](http://www.mono-1.com/monoface/main.html)

Right now, I load png images into movieclip containers using loadMovie() in a loop and with array of image names.  
This basically works like the monoface version, except for one thing: the clips (eyes, lips, noses, heads) do not switch fast enough. How can I eliminate this delay? Is there a way to preload all images and then call upon them when they need to be displayed?

Many thanks,

Mr\_Mister
