I’m trying to put a preloader in my flash profile.  
but the problem is my preloader won’t show up in the swf. file if i put an image behind the preloader.  
if i delete the\*\* “Girl image layer”\*\* the preloader will work again.  
Is it possible to make the image visible behind the preloader?  
how to fix this problem?

My preloader fla. file :

Here’s the actionscript that i used for my preloader

```auto
bytes_loaded = Math.round(_root.getBytesLoaded());
bytes_total = Math.round(_root.getBytesTotal());
getPercent = bytes_loaded/bytes_total;
_root.loadBar._width = getPercent*100;
_root.loadText = Math.round(getPercent*100)+"%";
if (bytes_loaded == bytes_total) {
    _root.gotoAndStop(3);
}

```
