Hello everybody,  
I have a problem preloading some files in a photogallery.  
I want to load 8 pictures and 8 thumbnails and then, after they are loaded, on(rollover) a thumbnail, the large picture should fadeIn in a the PictureHolder.  
I’m fighting with a preloader but it seems useless since no errors occur but it still doesn’t do what i do.  
I tried do load the images in emptyMovieClips.  
Any ideeas about a code that would preload all 8 thumbs/images?(with a single preloading line)  
Thank you
