: Hi,  
I am using actionscript 3.

I can load an image in a class but how do I load a number of images eg 4 images that animate.?These 4 images are a walking sequnce of a character.

I am unclear after googling an loading multi images in as3( just love google).

Loading a single image I

- load this into a loader
- Once loaded I load the image into a bitmap and add to a sprite
- I then add the spite to the stage

Q)Now for 4 related images I load 4 loader or 4 sprites or 4 bitmaps or do every thing 4 times?  
I want to do collisions eventually and I need bitmaps but bitmaps seem useless to use other than collisions.  
Googling for answers isnt helping me clarify this!

this loads 1 image

public function ClassImg3(xx:int,yy:int) {

img1=“scave0.png”  
myx=xx;  
myy=yy;  
var loader:Loader = new Loader;  
loader.contentLoaderInfo.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE, imageLoaded);  
loader.load(new URLRequest(img1));

}

private function imageLoaded(event:Event):void  
{  
var image:Bitmap = new Bitmap(event.target.content.bitmapData);

```
 sp.addChild(image);
 sp.x = myx;
 sp.y = myy;
 addChild(sp);
```
