I’m making a fullscreen flash portfolio. The thing is: I want to load my images in the full width of the screen, kinda like [www.sksantos.com](http://www.sksantos.com) does. How do they do that? With the ability to resize your window - and the images following and so on. The text does not seem to resize either. Please forgive my terrible english. I’ll be grateful for any answer. peace. fro ---

I have been reading up on the tutorials - and comed up with the attached .fla (check published version at [www.doyoudeer.com/prosjekter/02](http://www.doyoudeer.com/prosjekter/02)). I have decided to try duplicating [www.sksantos.com](http://www.sksantos.com)’s way of loading images - in order to learn how it’s done. However: at this point I am stuck. How do I load an image into the same width as the cone? Can anybody help me? f:cap: ---

I’m getting somewhere now! Check the attachments, or go to: [www.doyoudeer.com/prosjekter/02/test.swf](http://www.doyoudeer.com/prosjekter/02/test.swf) The movie now resizes both the cone and the image (which is preloaded) properly. However - I don’t understand how to make it load multiple images. Could anybody point me to a easily understood tutorial, or maybe help me out? Thanks in advance (:mario: this seems to be a very personal thread) love. fro :hoser: ---

HTe way you have it, the image swill not show up proportional. You have to decide (as in the sksantos example) what your max width/height will be and scale the images according to that. scotty(-: ---

Hi Scotty and thanks for the reply! My image height is set to 1/3 of the image width - as far as I understand this will allways make it proportional. Anyway: **I’m still trying to figure out how I hook this code up to some xml and make a full gallery.** ---

The reason why my image is streched is because I’m thinking of adding all images in the same width/height-ratio. :drool: ---

Ok, then it will be proportional. Have a search here on the forums and you’ll find many xml galleries;) scotty(-:
