I have a Flash file.  
All I’ve done is to stick in one image file.  
I’ve got the image publish setting to be 100%.

I publish the file.  
The resultant SWF file is double the size of the image.  
I would have thought that it should be the same or just a tiny bit bigger files size than the image.

(The image itself is an image I edited in Photoshop… and optimised for the web.)

Where am I going wrong?

Thanks.
