I need help figuring this out. I have used the tutorial and now I wanna do something different. I have been trying to only load 6 thumbnails at a time , when the user hits next another set of thumbnails loads in the same place. Any idea on how to do that. PLEASE HELP!!!

```auto

function thumbnails_fn (k) {
thumbnail_mc.createEmptyMovieClip ("t" + k,thumbnail_mc.getNextHighestDepth ());
tlistener = new Object ();
tlistener.onLoadInit = function (target_mc) {
target_mc._width = target_mc._height = 75;
//
thumbnail_mc["t"+k]._y=0
target_mc._y = ((k % cols) * (target_mc._height + space));
target_mc._x = Math.floor (k / cols) * (target_mc._width + space);
//
target_mc.picsValue = k;
target_mc.onRelease = function () {
p = this.picsValue - 1;
nextImage ();
};
target_mc.onRollOver = function () {
thumbNailScroller ();
};
target_mc.onRollOut = function () {
};
};
image_mcl = new MovieClipLoader ();
image_mcl.addListener (tlistener);
image_mcl.loadClip (thumbnails[k],"thumbnail_mc.t" + k);

```
