hai im a newbie here and i just want to ask for little help if its okay 
. i make a flash gallery for my website using scoty’s image gallery script and i try to mix some of his script so its applicable in my site. But my problem is in this script i cant seem see any Preloader for the large image that been load. im not really good in flash, but i think i see theres preloader in the script, and when i try to make Movie Clip preloader with “preloader” in its name it doesn’t work at all, is there somethin wrong or anyhting i should do? thanks a million if anybody can answer me, here i post the script from scoty’s
